A 52-channel 24-bit/96kHz I/O box.

RME Digiface is a highly extended version of the well-known Project Hammerfall PCI card. Digiface offers 3 ADAT optical I/Os, ADAT-Sync In, SPDIF I/O and word clock I/O like its predecessor. On top, there are 2 MIDI I/Os and a separate analog line out. Thanks to its unique Zero CPU Load technology Hammerfall DSP guarantees highest performance and lowest latency on both notebooks and desktops. Requires the Hammerfall HDSP PCMCIA Card (Not Included) for use with a laptop and the Hammerfall HDSP PCI card (Not Included) for use with tower-type computers .

The half rackspace unit has front panel status LEDs for MIDI state, lock state of the digital input, and error state of the host-bus. Additionally there's a high-quality 24-bit/96 kHz analog line output, also usable with headphones, and one MIDI I/O.

The Hammerfall DSP System comes with drivers for Windows 98/ME (MME with multi-client operation, ASIO 2.0, GSIF), Windows 2000/XP (full multi-client operation of MME, GSIF and ASIO 2.0) and MacOS (ASIO 2.0.).
