Doubtful, it defaults to high on connection. Something it love to see changed on all such dongles. Either low by default or selectable default in software.Thanks for testing, @amirm. Btw, did you by accident test it in low gain mode? Pressing the 2 volume buttons simultaneously switches between modes.
It's anecdotal but I can share my experience with dongles:"As is typical for this class of devices, the software I use to communicate with them doesn't work well so I can't run all the tests". This however is a bit concerning. Does that suggest it's not class compliant? Is this really "typical" for dongles? It can have the best performances in the world, but if something is full of bugs in usage, it ends up staying in the drawer. Wondering what that really means in practice.
Mounted mine with strong adhesive and removable tape ("Tesa Power Strips") to the adapter. Still a bit clunky but no drama.What exactly are we lookimg at in the opening Panther Pic photo? Two pieces? And will it work with iphone? I guess a camera adapter > USBC adapter > this unit woul do it in a slightly kludgy fashion...
Clunky indeed, but wouldn't it just work wit a lighting to USB-C cable???? What does the adapter do?Mounted mine with strong adhesive and removable tape ("Tesa Power Strips") to the adapter. Still a bit clunky but no drama.
Is that why they released "improved" version 2?RME does not play these games.
Was a better remote ;-)Is that why they released "improved" version 2?
Quite hard to find these cables (other than from Apple) that really work. In fact you tend for see a lot of misleading descriptions. Bought some, all failed. Of course, there may be some, I just gave up and went the Apple way.Clunky indeed, but wouldn't it just work wit a lighting to USB-C cable???? What does the adapter do?
Sure, just search for a 4.4 mm balanced to 2 x XLR cable.I wonder if it would be possible (and if adapters of this kind exist) to use the balanced HP output to drive a pair of active monitors via their analog XLR input?
And, if the volume setting for the unbalanced and balanced output is stored separately?
I can not imagine why an USB dongle would not work with Linux. Had you had any experience like that?I would like to know if this thing is working on Linux.
"Version 2" of what? If you are talking about ADI-2 DAC, then it's because the AK4493 replaced the AK4490 in production, so they had to update their BOM. They do this occasionally, you know, but they don't brag about another new product each week or so that has a 0.5 dB better measured SINAD.Is that why they released "improved" version 2?
Why not? Most people like to brag that they have something great, that they achieved something even better? Besides, I do not see RME being humble or modest.they don't brag about another new product each week or so that has a 0.5 dB better measured SINAD.
The ADI-2 DAC includes an improved SteadyClock, a fine-tuned to perfection analog circuitry, new MRC remote control, Extreme Power headphone output and a very special IEM output. It has all the bells and whistles that made the ADI-2 Pro famous, including its perfectly transparent sound signature and full DSP processing with Bass, Treble, Loudness, 5 Band Parametric EQ, Crossfeed and much more. With its simplified operation and stunning design it is the ideal center piece from home listening up to studio reference playback.
I have an “XtremPro” that works with volume control on Windows, but the volume is basically always at 100% on Linux until it reaches 0%.I can not imagine why an USB dongle would not work with Linux. Had you had any experience like that?
