The 12Mic-D is sonically identical to the already existing 12Mic (with 128 AVB channels) and complements the M-Series lineup of professional network audio solutions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwelve transparent mic preamps\u003c\/strong\u003e for exceptional conversion performance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PAD-free microphone input stages have a 75 dB gain range and accept signals of up to +18 dBu. On the converter side, the 12Mic shines with an outstanding signal-to-noise ratio on all channels. All twelve front-facing XLR connections accept microphone and line level signals, whilst the first four connections also accept TRS connectors, with switchable high impedance (Hi-Z) for instruments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMADI \u0026amp; ADAT\u003c\/strong\u003e for maximum flexibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to Dante, the 12Mic-D has two separate MADI ports- with coaxial built into the device as standard, and optical MADI available via an optional SFP module - along with three ADAT outputs and a line level headphone output for monitoring all incoming digital and analog signals. With the help of a routing matrix, any of the 12Mic-D’s 204 input channels can be individually routed to any of the 218 output channels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen connected to a Dante network, a combination of both analog and digital channels (such as connected MADI devices) can be transmitted to the network if required. In return, the 12Mic-D can receive up to 64 audio channels from the Dante network, which in turn can be forwarded to the headphones, ADAT, and two MADI connections as required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDante Audio Networking\u003c\/strong\u003e - 2 fully redundant network ports\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith an ever changing landscape of network audio solutions, the challenge for RME’s development team was to design a highly performant device platform that will guarantee unparalleled flexibility and stability for years to come. To match these high requirements in accordance with RME’s core principles everything was built from the ground up. By integrating Audinate’s Dante IP Core on a\u003cstrong\u003e custom built RME FPGA platform\u003c\/strong\u003e, RME is not only delivering a highly flexible solution but also gets one step closer to achieving a truly universal Audio Networking experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlug \u0026amp; play\u003c\/strong\u003e - rapid user interaction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eControl all device states directly from the front panel for convenient, direct access to all features. RME network audio devices can also be fully remote controlled via a web-interface on any network link (including wirelessly over Wi-Fi), allowing for the rapid creation of gain groups, phantom power switching, and routing of signals to headphones for monitoring. The integrated routing matrix allows for quick routing of any analog inputs straight to the headphone output, as well as all digital signals. As such, problem-solving of signals, clocking, connectivity or other issues is both simple and straight-forward!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMADI SFP Module (Optional)\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SFP module extends compatible RME devices with an optical SFP transceiver. Up to 64 audio channels can then be sent to and received from other MADI devices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe module is available in a Multi-Mode and in a Single-Mode variant cleary indicated on the module (as MM and SM) and packaging. Since the light transmission and required cabling differs, multi-mode modules can only be used reliably with other multimode MADI devices. The same applies to single-mode, which is less common in MADI systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SFP module accepts fiber optic cables with LC (Lucent Connector). As the majority of MADI devices requires SC (Square Connectors), this module comes with an adapter cable and SC-SC coupler. This allows the use of existing MADI cables.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SFP Module can be inserted into the following RME devices:\u003cbr\u003eRME 12Mic\u003cbr\u003eRME AVB Tool\u003cbr\u003eRME M-1610 Pro\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe SFP Module box contains:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 pc.
