ADI-2 DESCRIPTION
 
Extraordinarily Flexible 2-channel High-end AD/DA Converter
The RME ADI-2 is a both compact and extremely flexible 2-channel Hi-End AD/DA-converter. The small 9.5" RME ADI-2 offers top notch AD/DA-conversion from/to SPDIF, AES and ADAT, at up to 192 kHz. Its ability to use SPDIF, AES and ADAT format provides outstanding compatibility.


RME ADI-2 at a Glance:
  • Balanced inputs and outputs, and monitoring via headphone out.
  • SteadyClock for optimal converter quality, 24-bit/192kHz.
  • Digital Connectivity
  • Clear layout makes the ADI-2 easy to use out of the box.
  • Runs on a wide range of power supplied.


Balanced inputs and outputs
The ADI-2 is equipped with a balanced stereo line input via two Neutrik XLR/phones combo jacks, a balanced stereo line output with XLR plus separate and simultaneously active phone jacks, as well as an adjustable headphone output.

SteadyClock
The analog inputs and outputs use the same circuit design as RME's famous ADI-8, guaranteeing outstandingly low noise and distortion. Three different settings for the input and output levels each provide perfect compatibility on analog domain. A further highlight is SteadyClock, a proprietary clock technology for maximum jitter suppression. SteadyClock guarantees superb sound quality completely independent from the quality of the current reference clock. The ADI-2 uses the latest generation of AD/DA-converters capable of up to 192 kHz sampling frequency at a S/N ratio of 110 dB.

Digital Connectivity
The RME ADI-2 has more to offer than tremendous sound, it also gives you exciting digital connectivity. The RME ADI-2's transformer-balanced coaxial (RCA) SPDIF I/O has switchable Channel Status to make it fully AES/EBU compatible. The optical TOSLINK I/Os can handle up to 192 kHz and also serve as ADAT I/Os with up to 96 kHz sample rate. You can even use the RME ADI-2's SPDIF input and ADAT output or vice versa in AD/DA mode.

Clear Layout and Distinct Labeling
The clear layout and the distinct labeling of the RME ADI-2's front panel with its functional buttons, the informative status displays, a six-LED level meter as well as the tidy functional back panel make the RME ADI-2 easy to operate the ADI-2 right out of the box. Protective rack handles and a strain-relief for power cord and audio cables are further useful details that make the ADI-2 even more unique.

Wide Range Of Power
Following the 'Universal Power Supply' philosophy of RME's Digiface, Multiface, QuadMic and OctaMic, the ADI-2 comes with an external switching power supply. Its additional internal switching power supply has been specially designed and optimized for audio applications. It accepts any voltage from 7 to 30 V, be it AC or DC, and even runs on batteries and rechargeable batteries.

Customer Reviews
 Excellent step up from Digi/M-Audio converters  
by Kip from New City, NY, October 02, 2008
Music Background:  songwriter / engineer


“I bought one of these to bypass the A/D and D/A conversion on my M-Audio 1814 FW interface. There's definitely a noticeable difference, an "opening up" of the overall sound, and an improvement in the stereo field. I no longer get caught up in that messy muddiness that can happen after tracks build up in PTMP when using the stock converters in my interface. Setup and configuration is much, much...” Read More
