RMEs Fireface 800 revolutionized the world of FireWire audio
interfaces. Now the revolution continues: The Fireface 400 is not
just the little brother of the Fireface 800 - it is a completely
newly designed device. It is the only device in its class with
active jitter suppression, stand-alone functionality, complete
controllability from the front panel, highly flexible I/Os in
professional quality, and an unsurpassed 648-channel matrix
router - at sample rates up to 192 kHz.

As usual, RME offer a host of sophisticated features and
characteristics with the fastest Firewire technology. These include:

* Two digitally controlled Mic Preamps in high-end quality
* Two balanced universal inputs for line and instrument signals
* SteadyClock for maximum jitter suppression and clock refresh
* Simple stand-alone operation with rotary encoder and front panel display
* 54 Level Meter Peak/RMS, hardware-calculated
* Full mobility by Bus Power support
* DIGICheck, RME's unique meter and analysis tool
* TotalMix: 648-channel mixer with 42-bit internal resolution

FireWire audio by RME is seen as the reference by both users and editors.

It includes lots of features and capabilities RME FireWire Audio RME's
FireWire audio offers many pro-audio features not available from
other manufacturer's units: Complete realtime sample rate lock
Complete realtime sample rate control, even during playback/record
Complete start/stop control. No changed offset after reboot.
Extreme varispeed / external sync support, in all modes (even DS /
QS) Despite having a superior sync behavior (see above), the
Fireface's SteadyClock provides a heavy jitter suppression even in
varipitch applications. Reduced protocol overhead, by not sending
CIP (Common Isochronous Packet format) headers (AVC, mLan) Working
FireWire 800 solution Working FireWire 800 fix for Windows XP SP2
Latency change on the fly, while ASIO is running Latency change on
the fly, while GSIF is running Hardware-based data packet check
and drop out correction Complete realtime monitoring solution,
covering all inputs and all playback channels, equaling an 28+28
channels inline console having 28 Aux sends per channel. Lots of
advanced and unique features. Plus hardware based Peak/RMS
metering. Windows and Mac OS X drivers are completely identical in
terms of features and functionality Super low jitter MIDI I/O
similar to PCI-based performance (1 ms)
