The 2nd generation of the Babyface Pro improves all elements - again:

Sound quality, MicPres, Instrument inputs, lowest-noise Headphone/IEM outs and ultra-low latency.

All elements are industry-leading representatives of its kind - still combined in a fully bus-powered mobile interface, working with all features at the same even on legacy USB ports!

The Babyface Pro FS not only provides RME's new SteadyClock FS pro audio clock with FemtoSecond accuracy. The ultra-compact box inherits now the same highest quality analog conversion and uses the same headphone preamp technology output op-amps as ADI-2 Pro now. It comes with an USB-C cable and provides a newly K-Slot for theft protection.

Connects to USB2 and USB-C (cable included). All features working fully bus-powered, even on legacy USB ports!

Go all-in. Get the best out!

Combining the best mobile MicPres, AD/DA, Headphone Amps,

Record exactly what you hear

Audio signals captured by the Babyface Pro FS are passed in their entirety, nothing added, nothing taken. The end result: reference quality recordings that rise above the competition, and that you'll be proud to call your own.

Both headphone outputs provide the High Power / Zero Noise design of the industry-leading, reference converter ADI-2 Pro FS now. Lowest Noise achieved!

Industry-leading headphone preamp technology guarantees lowest-noise and ultra-low latency, outperforming even well regarded stand-alone headphone amplifiers, no matter what type of headphone or IEMs are used!

The THD of both parallel phones outputs improve by 10 dB. The 3.5 mm TRS phones output power rises to 90 mW. THD of both phones outputs improved by up to 10 dB. Finally the output impedance of 3.5 mm TRS was lowered from 2 Ohms to 0.1 Ohms.

Best-in-Class Mic & Line Inputs

For the main I/O RME have designed a XLR socket, which integrates seamlessly into the housing and saves space.Two digitally controlled preamps provide individually switchable 48V phantom power. These circuits feature a gain range of 76 dB, adjustable in steps of 1 dB, including a relay-driven PAD, resulting in exceptional EIN (Equivalent Input Noise) performance as well as line overload protection, and enough gain for even the lowest level microphones.

Babyface Pro's incredibly efficient design almost never requires an external power supply - it's perfectly stable on USB 3 bus power, and also most USB 2 ports, with no degradation in any technical specification. This makes it perfect for mobile recording, even with a pair of your favourite condenser microphones.

The comprehensive feature set continues with an optical TOSLINK I/O; use as either an ADAT port with SMUX support or SPDIF for sessions up to 192 kHz. In combination with an external ADAT converter, the Babyface Pro fully supports 12 analog inputs as well as 12 outputs, making it ideal for both live and studio multi-track applications. You can plug any instrument, line or high impedance, into Babyface Pro's jack inputs 3 & 4. Record your guitar on the go, with no additional hardware required.

MIDI I/O via an included breakout cable completes the package.
