RME Fireface UCX II

RME UCX II vs UA Apollo (ervaring)
Na de UA Apollo overgestapt op de RME UCX II en nooit spijt gehad. Geluid is meer transparant / clean en niet zo gekleurd als de Apollo, de RME wint met véél stabielere drivers, lagere latency, geen gedoe met updates, en jarenlange driver-support. Ook veel meer I/O en uitbreidbaarheid (ADAT, AES, stand-alone opname, DC-outputs). Apollo’s DSP en plug-ins zijn leuk, maar de RME is betrouwbaarder, sneller en toekomstbestendiger. Ones you go RME, always RME!!!

Finally got my hands on my first RME product, UCX II !

The sound quality is superb, a noticeable difference from my lower-budget audio interface.

AD/DA conversion is the best I've experienced. The preamps are clean and have great headroom.

Drivers are strong, and some small errors I used to get in Pro Tools from the previous interface are totally gone with RME drivers (on Windows).

Overall I couldn't have been happier!
Time to dive into Total Mix and learn how to use DURec )))

It was worth waiting for it to be in stock for a while.
After ordering it, Thomann shipped it right away with no issues.
Thanks to RME and Thomann team!

The paper box containing this device is only about 40-50cm, about 15cm high and about 30cm wide.
But the wrapped package I think should contain a full-size computer case.
I thought I received something other than the RME UCX II.
But when opened, it's great. My package was well wrapped, to make sure it wasn't damaged in transit.

What's even better is that when I opened it up inside and got a free Thomann UK power cable, I was using it instead of the existing power cord, because it has a ground wire.

In terms of product, overall, this device is really great. The product has no scratches on the surface. So beautiful.

When plugged in, it works right away, and fast.

I still don't know how to use it properly.
But when you have just installed the company's driver, you will need to restart the machine, for TotalMix FX to be turned on. It looks harder to use on the inside than it looks on the outside.


It's difficult to buy an RME UCX II at the moment. Although it costs money, at least I feel I was lucky to have bought it, because I am an international customer. After a long time reading a lot of reviews and a decision has been made. But there was no stock, except for Thomann, and the product after I bought it was also out of stock. Perhaps anyone who wants to buy it later will have to wait for a relatively long time. I am very lucky and very satisfied with Thomann.
