What is the Digiface USB?
This device gives you a really simple and easy way to connect your gear via ADAT or SPDIF directly to your computer with it’s 4 in and 4 out ports.
That’s great for devices that can’t operate as an interface or also useful if you want to merge the outputs of multiple devices together such as audio interfaces, preamps, mixers, adat machines, etc.
This little box runs via a single USB cable, and in addition to the 4 digital input/outputs, it also has a headphone output.
Simple and straight forward, but it gives you access to the RME drivers as well as the flexible Total Mix software.
Hardware Specs
- connectivity: 4 x ADAT/SPDIF In, 4 x ADAT/SPDIF Out, 1 x Headphone Out, USB
- price: $499

So what’s the bottom line?
This is a specialized audio interface, but for those that need what it does, I don’t know if there is anything else on the market that does it in such a simple way.
If you need to connect a bunch of digital input and outputs, or even if you want a super flexible and portable interface to connect to your headphones on the go, this little box can do it.
I give the Digiface USB 4.5 out of 5 subs, it’s super small, powered by USB, sounds great, and operates at a very low latency thanks to the RME drivers. Plus, I love the flexibility of Total Mix!
This isn’t an audio interface for everyone, but again, for those who need what this can do, I don’t see how you would be disappointed.
I just hope on the next one they include a headphone control knob!

I’ve used them for years and love their payment plans. I’m also an affiliate so if you use my link I will get a small percentage, nothing changes for you or your price, but it definitely helps keep the content flowing.
Let me know what you think!
Can you record the ADAT channels onto your Computer hard drive using just the RME Mix software? Or do you need something like Reaper Daw or Audacity software to record the ADAT channels?
Thanks for a great review video.

You would need a software program to record into
Hi Joe,
I just purchased another ART Opto8.
The one we have now is connected to
our U-Phoria UMC1820 which is connected to our
Studio One DAW by USB which gives us 16 inputs.
Will the RME allow me to connect all three together and
send them to the Studio One ?
Thank you,

It has been a while since I used this, but the idea is it should be able to aggregate multiple devices into one interface. You may want to double check with RME but I believe that is the purpose, being able to connecting multiple devices to your computer through this box.
