  • 192 kHz / 24-bit conversion captures every detail
  • Ultra-low latency enables real-time monitoring while recording
  • Four high-performance preamps accept mic, instrument and line signals

Professional 60-Channel USB-B Interface

The RME Fireface 802 FS AE is a 60-channel USB-B audio and MIDI interface built for professional recording studios and live sound environments. It operates at sample rates up to 192 kHz with 24-bit resolution for transparent capture. Four high-performance combination inputs handle microphone, instrument and line signals on the front panel. DC-coupled analog outputs and ultra-low latency monitoring suit demanding production workflows.

Upgrade From Limited I/O or Higher Latency

This unit replaces interfaces that lack sufficient analog and digital channels for complex sessions. The jump is worth it when a project requires eight analog inputs and eight analog outputs simultaneously alongside ADAT and S/PDIF expansion. Integrated SteadyClock FS jitter suppression and reference-grade converters raise the quality floor above budget converters. Standalone operation allows the hardware to function without a connected computer.

Rackmount Installation With Driver Setup

The 1 RU 19-inch chassis fits standard equipment racks and connects via a single USB-B cable to Mac or Windows systems. Driver installation is required before first use to enable the full channel count and DigiCheck metering toolbox. Front-panel combo jacks accept XLR or TRS plugs without adapters. Two stereo headphone outputs deliver up to 17 dBu for loud monitoring. Verify operating system compatibility and available USB bandwidth before integrating into an existing rig.

Questions about this item

What rack space does the 1 RU 19" chassis of the Fireface 802 FS AE require?

The unit occupies a single rack unit (1 RU) in a standard 19-inch rack, so allow one vertical slot and ensure the mounting ears align with the rack rails.

Which driver step must be completed before connecting the USB-B cable to a Mac or Windows computer?

Install the latest RME driver package for your operating system first, then connect the USB-B cable; skipping the driver install is the most common reason the interface is not recognised.

When should the internal clock battery be checked or replaced on the Fireface 802 FS AE?

If the interface loses its clock settings or shows SteadyClock FS warnings after power cycles, the internal backup battery needs replacement by a qualified technician.
