RME ADI-2 FS AD/DA converter Details

The RME ADI-2 FS is a compact, ultra-high-fidelity two-channel AD/DA converter designed for studio and professional audio applications where precision, reliability, and sonic transparency are essential. As part of RME’s renowned ADI series, the ADI-2 FS offers flawless digital-to-analogue and analogue-to-digital conversion, making it ideal for mastering, playback, and measurement tasks.

At the heart of the unit is RME’s SteadyClock FS technology, delivering ultra-low jitter and high clock stability for optimal sonic performance. It ensures that even external digital sources are reproduced with clarity and precision, thanks to a jitter suppression system that improves stereo imaging and timing accuracy. The RME ADI-2 FS operates with high-resolution 24-bit converters, supporting sample rates up to 192 kHz for both AD and DA conversion.

On the input side, the RME ADI-2 FS offers a pair of balanced XLR/TRS combo inputs, suitable for line-level and instrument signals, with switchable input sensitivity and level control. On the output side, both balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA outputs are available, providing flexible routing options for integration into a wide range of studio setups.

Digital connectivity includes AES/EBU, SPDIF coaxial, and SPDIF optical inputs and outputs, allowing the ADI-2 FS to serve as a versatile format converter in addition to its core conversion capabilities. Front-panel level meters and status LEDs ensure at-a-glance monitoring, while internal jumpers provide configuration flexibility for output levels and operation mode.

Compact and rack-mountable with the optional rack tray, the RME ADI-2 FS is designed for critical audio environments where transparency and precision matter. Built in Germany with RME’s uncompromising standards, it delivers consistent, reliable performance for demanding professionals.
