RME Fireface 802 FS Anniversary Edition

 

20 Years Fireface 800

For the 20th anniversary of the legendary Fireface 800, RME presents an exclusive special edition: the Fireface 802 FS AE in an elegant and dark design, inspired by the successful ADI-2 series with an optionally available, new colour-matching ARC USB Remote Control.

20 Years Uncompromising AUDIO EXCELLENCE

From the very beginning, unsurpassed performance has been one of the cornerstones of RME‘s product design, and this is even more evident today. RME were the first to deliver professional performance over USB 2.0 and have recently paved the way for multichannel audio on USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt technology for Windows. RME‘s refusal to compromise on any aspect of product design or manufacture has resulted an unrivalled reputation for quality, performance and reliability.

Our Audio Core and Steady Clock technologies are just two examples of our dedication to superior design. We place a high level of attention on the development of reliable, stable, and regularly updated drivers for our products and an unwavering focus on audio quality. All RME devices are designed to preserve music as it was originally intended and audio signals are passed in their entirety, with nothing added or taken away.

The Evolution of a Worldwide Outstanding FireWire Audio Interface

The latest generation, the Fireface 802 FS, was introduced in 2023 and brings numerous improvements that further support modern studio environments. With the FS model, RME introduced their unique SteadyClock FS technology, which guarantees even more precise clocking and less jitter. This leads to a significant sound improvement and higher stability, especially in complex digital audio environments. In addition, the analog circuitry has been further optimized, resulting in even better signal quality and reduced latency.

The Fireface 802 FS also offers an optional Class Compliant mode (30 channel I/O with up to 192 kHz) and operation with TotalMix FX for iPad, RME’s app to fully control the Fireface 802 FS from the iPad without any computer. The alternative CC mode can be activated via a recessed pushbutton switch directly at the back of the interface. For controlling TotalMix FX including the latest Room EQ feature, users will find a USB-A port for direct connection of the optional available ARC USB.

RME has always focused on continuously improving audio quality, stability and compatibility over the years. While the Fireface 800 was a breakthrough at the time, the Fireface 802 built on this foundation and brought significant upgrades to meet the demands of modern audio setups. The Fireface 802 FS continues this tradition with a focus on precision and durability.
