Introducing the Babyface Pro FS equipped with RME's latest technology, which continues to evolve day by day.

The SteadyClock technology installed in the RME interface not only enables stable clock synchronization, but also performs accurate DA conversion without fluctuations, enabling unprecedented clean sound. The latest model, Babyface Pro FS, is equipped with the next-generation version of ""SteadyClock FS"", which has an accuracy improved to 1/1000 trillionths of a second (femtosecond). This is a precision that goes beyond high-performance clock generators.

In recent years, the playback environment with headphones and earphones has become important, and it has become essential to create a correct monitoring environment on the production side. The Babyface Pro FS has two headphone outputs, a TRS and a mini jack, and features independent driver stages optimized for high impedance (headphones) and low impedance (in-ear monitors). This allows it to be compatible with any type of headphones and always brings out the best sound possible. It uses the same op-amps as the ADI-2 Pro FS, which boasts the highest specifications as an AD/DA converter, and the output THD of both terminals has been improved by up to 10 dB. In addition, the 3.5 mm TRS phone output supports up to 90 mW and the output impedance has been reduced from 2 Ω to 0.1 Ω.

In addition, the signal-to-noise ratio of the AD/DA converter has been improved, and the Babyface Pro FS is now equipped with a physical switch that allows you to change the reference level of +19 / +4 dBu on the main unit, and a new K-slot for anti-theft when used on mobile devices. This is the culmination of RME's continued challenge to the limits of audio interfaces.
