Meet the RME 12Mic Dante: Your Studio's New Backbone
The RME 12Mic Dante is an advanced 12-channel microphone preamplifier, engineered to provide flawless studio-quality conversion with exceptional ease and efficiency. Integrating high-end MADI and Dante connectivity, this device caters to the demanding needs of professional recording setups, live sound environments, and location recording. Each channel is equipped with digitally controlled gains, allowing precise adjustments and remote operation, making the 12Mic Dante a powerful and flexible tool for today's audio professionals.

Superior Mic Preamp Clarity
The 12Mic Dante is renowned for its transparent microphone preamps which offer a 75 dB gain range and accept signals up to +18 dBu without the need for PADs. The result is an unrivaled signal-to-noise ratio that preserves the purest sound quality across all channels. The first four XLR inputs also support TRS connectors and can switch to high impedance mode, accommodating a variety of instruments directly. This level of input flexibility ensures that the 12Mic Dante can handle any source thrown its way.

Versatile MADI and ADAT Integration
Expanding on its vast connectivity options, the 12Mic Dante includes two MADI interfaces—coaxial and an optional optical via SFP module—and three ADAT outputs, enhancing its versatility in studio and live settings. The comprehensive routing matrix enables any of the 204 input channels to be directed to any of the 218 output channels, facilitating complex setup configurations with ease and precision.

Revolutionary Dante Networking Capabilities
With two fully redundant network ports, the 12Mic Dante leverages Dante audio networking to provide seamless integration into existing digital ecosystems. This setup not only supports vast channel counts over a network but also ensures robust and flexible operation with guaranteed stability and performance. Up to 64 audio channels can be received from the Dante network and can be effortlessly routed to the headphones, ADAT outputs, or both MADI connections as required.

Streamlined Control and Configuration
The RME 12Mic Dante is designed for ease of use, featuring comprehensive control options directly from the front panel or via a web interface accessible from any networked device, including wirelessly over Wi-Fi. This allows for swift adjustments of gain settings, phantom power, and routing configurations without ever touching the device. The built-in routing matrix simplifies the management of inputs and outputs, enhancing workflow and reducing setup times in any recording environment.
