Using RME Interfaces and TotalMix

All of our studios make use of audio interfaces from RME to move audio signals into and out of computers. Although there are different models in use throughout the studios, they all share the same drivers, so you will only need to go through the installation procedure once.

For an in-depth look at how to install the drivers and use the accompanying control software called TotalMix, please watch the induction video below.
