RME PRO LINE ARC USB Advanced Remote Control Black Edition

Description

The Advanced Remote Control (ARC) has been designed for direct access to the most used actions and commands, making daily work with RME interfaces simpler and faster. Configuration is very easy and takes place within TotalMix FX. The ARC features a robust metal chassis with a main encoder, 2 buttons, and 6 buttons with LEDs. The Remote Control connects to the audio interface via a 5m cable and a special connector on the rear panel of the cards. On the top panel of the ARC, there is a rotary encoder with a push-button function, 2 lower buttons, and 6 upper buttons with status LEDs. The rotary encoder can be used to modify various parameters such as gain and volume. The left Prog button is programmable and can perform various functions. The same applies to the 6 buttons which also have an LED indicating their current status. The ARC provides factory settings for the 7 programmable buttons, but it can be configured as desired from the Key Commands window of TotalMix FX. The behavior of each button (push, toggle, activate, and deactivate) varies based on the selected function. Available commands/actions (examples): - Main Volume - Global Mute - Global Solo - Mute Group 1 to 4 - Solo Group 1 to 4 - Fader Group 1 to 4 - Link Main AB - Speaker B Select - DIM (Main Out) - Mute (Main Out) - Mute FX (Main Out) - Mono (Main Out) - External Input - Reverb - Echo - Cue Phones 1 to 4 - Snapshot 1 to 8 - Mic Gains - Inst. Gains - Volume Phones You can also activate several functions simultaneously. Example: on button A, the Cue Phones 1 function is set. This means that when pressed, it is possible to listen to the headphone submix through the Main output (monitors). Now, to modify the volume of the headphone submix, assign the Volume Phones 1 function to button B. By pressing both buttons, you can listen to the headphone submix in the monitor output and modify its volume (the fader in the third row) by rotating the encoder. When Fireface UCX and UFX are used in stand-alone mode, TotalMix FX on the computer is no longer available, and therefore the ARC configuration settings are not either. In this case, a series of fixed functions is activated: - Encoder rotation: Main Out Volume - Encoder press: Dim for Main Out - Recall button: Recall function for Main Out - Prog: no function - Buttons A to F: load Setup 1 to 6 * Note: The Advanced Remote Control (ARC) is compatible with all Fireface UCX, and with Fireface UFX with serial number 23241707 (built after June 2011) or higher. All interfaces with Advanced Remote Control connection produced from now on will be compatible. Those who own a Fireface UFX with a serial number lower than 23241707 can contact MidiWare to request a hardware upgrade of their interface for full compatibility with the Advanced Remote Control. This modification is not free.
