RME Fireface 802 FS

The Fireface 802 FS is a highly integrated pro audio solution for live and studio use in a 19" housing. An interface for users who don't want to compromise on sound, stability and extremely low latency, and who long for an unrivaled professional feature set. Once again a milestone among RME's interfaces, with the best of the best and a little bit more. 60 audio channels, high-end microphone preamps, reference class converters, a complete effects section and operation at up to 192 kHz are the basis for many more features.
