29. General
The Fireface 802 operates in three different modes:
driver-based USB 2
,
stand-alone
mode,
and
Class Compliant
mode. The latter describes a standard that is natively supported by oper-
ating systems like Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. No proprietary drivers are required, the de-
vice will be directly recognized when the CC firmware is loaded. The natively available features
will be limited in comparison to those provided by the RME driver for the 802. For example there
will be no hardware settings, no (Total) Mix and no settings for the effects. On the iPad (iOS)
the 802 can be fully controlled by the optional app
TotalMix FX for iPad
.
The Class Compliant mode can be activated and deactivated directly at the unit only via the
optional Advanced Remote Control, ARC. For this to work the interface must not be connected
to Mac or PC.
Neither Windows nor Mac Class Compliant support is relevant, though, since there are dedi-
cated and matured drivers for both OS X and Windows, which provide ALL the device's features
at lowest latencies. The main reason for implementing Class Compliant mode was to allow con-
necting the 802 to an
Apple iPad
®
!
The 802 provides the iPad with the professional analog I/O connections it lacks. Superb micro-
phone preamps with EQ, dynamics, even with the AutoSet feature, in addition to professional
balanced line outputs, and hi-power headphone outputs which also excel with high impedance
phones. Plus level and gain adjustments, AES and ADAT I/O, reverb, echo, zero latency moni-
toring, digitally via USB, without any limitation in quality, at up to 96 kHz and 24 bit. And of
course a Sysex-capable double MIDI I/O.
Note that since iOS 5 multichannel recording is supported, and since iOS 6 multichannel play-
back as well. Currently
djay,
Auria
and
Cubasis
support more than one stereo output, others
are expected to follow.
