Common RME Fireface UCX II 40-channel USB Interface and Rackmount Kit Questions
How do I set up MIDI in TotalMix FX to route MIDI data from my MIDI keyboard to a software synthesizer running on my computer?
First, ensure your MIDI keyboard is connected to the Fireface UCX II via MIDI DIN or USB. Then, in TotalMix FX, route the MIDI input channel (hardware input) to the desired software return channel (playback channel) that corresponds to your software synthesizer.
Can I save EQ and routing settings as presets on the Fireface UCX II, and how do I recall them quickly?
Yes, the Fireface UCX II allows you to save snapshots of TotalMix FX configurations. Use the snapshot slots in TotalMix FX's interface to save and recall entire routing and EQ setups for different recording or mixing scenarios, or use the front panel buttons to recall stored states.
What's the best way to monitor different input sources (e.g., microphones and instruments) with near-zero latency using the Fireface UCX II?
Use TotalMix FX's flexible routing matrix to create a near-zero latency monitor mix. Route the input channels you want to monitor directly to the desired output channels (headphones or studio monitors) within TotalMix FX, bypassing the computer's audio drivers.
My Fireface UCX II is not being recognized by my computer. What are the first troubleshooting steps I should take?
First, check the USB connection and try a different USB port and cable. Then, ensure you have the latest RME drivers installed for your operating system and that the device is powered on correctly.
How does the DURec (Direct USB Recording) feature of the Fireface UCX II work, and what file formats are supported?
DURec allows you to record directly to a USB storage device (flash drive or hard drive) without a computer; to record, simply connect a USB storage device to the front panel USB port and use the DURec controls on the front panel. It supports recording in WAV format with a sample rate up to 48 kHz and will automatically split your files into 2GB chunks.
