hiya,
just because I know these dac companies can be confusing with their... 'works up to 192K...' only later to find that means only the spdif input but not the usb (like my stello), I decided to fire off a question to RME
...
Does the new USB input on the Fireface 400 work at 24bit/192khz also? If not, up to what rate does the USB input accept?
Thanks,
...
and got this reply back from RME
"
Hello,
the USB input is for data, not audio. The unit will work up to 192k, though.

Regards
Daniel Fuchs
RME

Anyone else confused like me?

10. Driver and Firmware
10.1 Driver Installation
After the Fireface has been recognized, (see 9. Hardware Installation) the hardware assistant
finds a Fireface UC Win (serial number). Please note the Win. If Mac is displayed the unit has
to be disconnected from the computer and its firmware has to be changed to Win (see above)
prior to installing the drivers.
Insert the RME Driver CD into your CD-ROM drive, and follow further instructions which appear
on your computer screen. The driver files are located in the directory \Fireface UC Win on the
RME Driver CD.
Windows now installs the driver of the Fireface UC and registers it
as a new audio device in the system. After a reboot, the symbols of
mixer and Settings dialog will appear in the task bar. The red Host
error LED extinguishes.
In case the warning messages 'Digital signature not found', 'Do not install driver', 'not certified
driver' or similar come up: simply ignore them and continue with the installation.
In case the Hardware Wizard does not show up automatically after connecting the Fireface,
do not attempt to install the drivers manually! An installation of drivers for non-recognized
hardware will cause a blue screen when booting Windows!
Possible reasons why a Fireface is not found automatically:
� The USB port is not active in the system (check the Device Manager)
� The USB cable is not, or not correctly inserted into the socket
� No power. After switching the Fireface on, at least the 7 segment display has to be lit.
