Connect - to insert, merge and extend.
Connecting the XTC to other MADI devices is simple: in our example, connect the output of the MADIface XT to the input
of the OctaMic XTC in order to send remote control and clocking information. Then, connect the output of the OctaMic
XTC to the input of the MADIface XT to receive audio. You’re all set! The MADIface XT can now receive the signals of
the OctaMic XTC, including its microphone preamps, ADAT and AES3 inputs and even up to 24 audio channels from an
attached iOS device. Got an older ADAT or AES3 preamp? You can attach that to the OctaMic XTC too.
iPad®
The Octamic XTC is the first MADI device compatible to
Class Compliant USB Audio. That means that you can
connect it to your Apple iPad® Camera Connection Kit and
integrate your favorite audio apps - such as synthesizers
and multitrack recorders. You can record and play back up
to 24 channels of audio - from and to any signal source
that’s connected to the XTC - analog, AES/EBU, ADAT or
MADI.
Headphones
Headphone outputs are rare on microphone preamps,
but they are useful. Remember TotalMix FX on the
previous page? A microphone signal going from the
OctaMic microphone input via MADI to the MADIface
XT, adding some reverb and returning to the headphone
outputs takes about the same amount of time that sound
MADI - from a microphone’s point of view
RME offers two microphone preamplifiers with MADI - the flagship model
Micstasy
and the
OctaMic XTC
. Its eight
microphone and line inputs, four switchable to Hi-Z mode, meet an unrivaled variety of digital connection options - from
common ADAT and AES/EBU to sophisticated 64-channel MADI optical. This device fits virtually anywhere into your existing
setup and is the perfect entry point to larger MADI systems.

you’re running 2000m of MADI cable in between. Your
musicians will love it - they play better with less delay in
their monitoring. Each pair of headphones can monitor
any pair of audio channels that the OctaMic XTC receives.
