New RME ADI-2 Pro EX AD/DA audio interface

Does this version allowed to manipulate the EQ via an Windows/Mac interface. Doing it straight why are the small green on the ADI is way too fiddly

Yes. I use the "ADI-2 Series Remote for Windows" Software to store EQ profiles for my headphones to the ADI-2 Pro EX.
 
Does anybody know if the RME ADI-2 Pro EX will have similar RIAA capability as the 2/4 does?
As a side note: when RME launched the ADI-2 Pro 2/4 SE, they mentioned the RIAA capability was incorporated since that was a feature in the ESS chips they were now using in that device.

The AKM chips in the ADI-2 Pro FS R did not have that capability; and presumably RIAA is still not a feature in the AKM chips being used by the ADI-2 Pro EX.
 
Oh cool. I did not know that this existed. You saved my life full stop thank you very much for your kind reply
 
My ADI-2 Pro EX will be shipped on Wednesday from Sweetwater but if you are interested in purchasing one, Sweetwater is now accepting online orders with shipping scheduled for August 6th.

Just got it today :) I have to redo my desk because I'm changing the Secretlab Magnus Pro XL Magpad Desk Mat from the current Cream White to the Star Wars to match my Star Wars Helmet collection :D I will post photos after I'm done with the desk later tomorrow or Saturday.

A lot of cables and a bit messy but wait for the magic to happen

Out of sight, out of mind ;)

BTW, as expected, no sound difference with headphones between the Benchmark HPA4 and the RME ADI-2 Pro EX.
 
That cable tray is killer. Custom made or readily available?

Very nice setup indeed. That desk looks great.
I doubt anyone knows this issue but I used to have to manually swap back output rate in windows if I were to play ASIO, because I would lose playback until it was back at 44.1k again? I don't remember exactly. I'm just wondering if that is still a thing. It was pretty annoying. Doubt anyone knows what I'm even talking about. That was with the ADI DAC 2 FS.
 
Maybe a Windows issue - no such problems here with 2x ADI2-DAC, one "old" (AKM), one new.
IIRC, Windows 11 has undergone some audio "modernizations", but IDK since which build.
 
True I should add that this was on Windows 11. My Gold Note HP-10 Deluxe automatically makes the switch though, so I don't know if it was a driver thing with TotalMix
