Reference AD/DA Converter with 768 kHz Support
The RME ADI-2 Pro EX is a professional-grade audio interface combining reference AD/DA conversion, dual Extreme Power headphone outputs, and multi-format digital I/O in a single unit. It supports PCM sample rates up to 768 kHz and DSD playback, targeting studio professionals, audio enthusiasts, and measurement applications requiring high-resolution performance.
Suited for Studios Needing Extensive I/O
This unit fits users who require balanced and unbalanced analog connections, AES, ADAT, and SPDIF digital formats, plus dual high-power headphone outputs for critical monitoring. It is not for buyers who only need a simple two-channel USB interface, those without use for extensive digital connectivity, or setups that do not require independent headphone amplification.
Class-Compliant USB-C Setup
The interface operates in class-compliant mode over USB-C for direct compatibility with macOS, Windows, and supported iOS devices without proprietary drivers. A front-panel IPS display provides direct access to settings and metering. The 12V trigger output allows synchronized power sequencing with compatible external equipment, reducing manual switching errors in complex racks.
