RME 12Mic

The RME 12Mic is a remote controllable 12 channel microphone preamplifier with uncompromising A/D conversion, integrated AVB and MADI connectivity and a variety of features that make it the perfect companion for any professional recording.

The unit features twelve microphone and line inputs with uncompromising studio-quality digital conversion, remotely controllable gain levels, integrated MADI and AVB connectivity, and a host of additional features - the perfect companion for any professional recording setup.

The microphone input channels without PAD switch offer gain up to 75 dB for signals up to +18 dBu. On the converter side, the 12Mic boasts an outstanding signal-to-noise ratio of 121.2 dB(A) on all channels. The twelve XLR connectors on the front panel each process microphone and line signals, the first four of which are designed as combination connectors for TRS plugs and support the connection of high-impedance instrument signals (Hi-Z).

MADI inputs and outputs are available in coaxial and optical versions (via an SPF module) and support concatenation, merging and conversion of MADI signals with extremely low latency. The three optical ADAT outputs allow the transmission of up to 24 channels in single speed mode (e.g. a combination of microphone inputs, MADI and AVB signals) or up to 12 output channels at 96 kHz sample rate, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of audio interfaces. Furthermore, the ADAT ports can also be used to send monitor mixes from AVB or MADI input signals to external DA converters and/or headphone amplifiers.
