RME M32-DA-PRO-II-D 32 channel DA converter with MADI & DANTE

The RME M-32 DA Pro II D is a state-of-the-art 32-channel digital-to-analogue converter designed for professional studios, immersive sound installations, live sound systems, and industrial applications. It features Dante® connectivity, fully equipped MADI I/Os, low THD values, intelligent channel routing, and comprehensive control options, including remote access via network and USB.

The Ultimate Solution for High-End Network Audio Processing

The M-32 DA Pro II D incorporates cutting-edge, high-resolution converter components and a fully balanced analogue circuit design, achieving a signal-to-noise ratio of 120 dB(A) with minimal latency. The converter excels with an improved THD+N of -111 dB and optimised impulse response at higher sampling rates to reduce ringing artifacts during conversion, positioning it in the reference class of audio converters.

Plug & Play - Rapid User Interaction

Users can control all device functions directly from the front panel, ensuring quick and easy access to all features. The M-32 DA Pro II D offers remote access over the network, including Wi-Fi and USB, facilitating the rapid creation of gain groups, phantom power switching, and clock configuration. Integration into any setup is seamless, and support is provided for a JSON-based API and SysEx MIDI commands. The integrated routing matrix enables single-channel routing across all analogue and digital I/O, simplifying signal management and connectivity troubleshooting.

Dante Audio Networking - Fully Redundant Network Ports

The M-32 DA Pro II D is built on a custom RME FPGA platform that integrates Audinate’s Dante IP Core, providing unmatched flexibility and stability for professional audio networks. The device offers native Dante connectivity, allowing direct interaction with other audio devices via standard switches. Users can record and playback 64 channels from their computer to any of the M-32's analogue and digital I/O using Audinate’s Dante Virtual Soundcard™.

Superior Analogue Line Level Performance

To ensure maximum compatibility with a wide range of analogue hardware, the M-32 DA Pro II D allows operation with different line levels on each channel while maintaining full converter resolution. It supports line levels of +19 dBu and +13 dBu and adheres to the SMPTE® recommendation of +24 dBu at 0 dBFS, making it one of the few solutions on the market to offer this flexibility.

Easy Operation and Comprehensive Monitoring

Tri-colour back-lit channel label fields provide clear and comprehensive monitoring of analogue channel assignments and signal flow, especially in fixed installations. Users can create custom channel labels, which are securely affixed behind a magnetic cover and illuminated according to signal levels.

Continuous Updates for Long-Lasting Performance

RME ensures that the M-32 DA Pro II D remains at the forefront of audio technology through continuous firmware updates. These updates have introduced numerous enhancements, including increased Dante stream and channel counts, additional stream formats, single-channel routing, and more, reflecting RME’s ongoing commitment to delivering top-tier performance for years to come.
