Great video. I'm a noob composer working from a Dell Optiplex Windows PC who LOVES the sound quality I get from the AIO Pro, it's truly the best sounding DAC/Soundcard I own in my arsenal of audio gear. I'm building GR Research NX Studio monitors paired with orchard audio starkrimson ultra monoblocks to supply the power. But even now with a couple of cheap Neumi BS5's powered by a cheap stereo SMSL amp the Aio Pro gives me incredible sound from downloaded music/streaming music. It's beautifully clear, FAST (when used with Kontakt) and gives great instrument separation. I knew with its ADAT capabilities I could eventually do surround monitoring (within cubase/Nuendo ) once I could afford the gear. But I failed to realize how the Aio Pro is a bit redundant for surround monitoring, I could've just gone with a single RME processing component, or a cheaper soundboard with ADAT...so I do have some buyers remorse. But, that said, I think I'll keep it. It sends a very IMPRESSIVE signal out. The expansion processor I go with will surely benefit from its clocking. The analog in's also come in handy every now and again. Either way it's giving my PC the ability to function in many ways as a top tier studio monitoring system as a top tier HiFi Digital Playback system. I'll eventually pair it with more RME gear as I go. Perhaps the Fireface 802, or the ADI-8 DS mkIII to get that surround monitoring capability I've been after. www.rme-usa.com/hdspe-aio-adi-8-ds-mk-iii-pro-bundle.html But if there's an easier way or you have suggestions lemme know. I'm not a techie and this took all my energy to understand 😂
This is literally the only video that I saw that included aio pro...I'm planing to buy one for a while, so can you make more videos about additional equipment that you use with aio pro...thanks!
I really love my expert sleepers ADAT and SPDIF interfaces that work well with AiO Pro. Using all of inputs and outputs. They are meant for euro rack integration but you can always buy a very mini rack and then just use them as a desktop unit.
This is fantastic! I have MOTU 2408 mk1 + MOTU 8Pre mk1! Not a chance to get it working on Linux but this card would let me light up one or two of those racks by the looks via LightPipe. Nifty.

HDSPConf doesnt work for my RME AIO. Card 0 : RME AIO S/N 0x8c939e at 0x41b00000, irq 18 RME AIO S/N 0x8c939e at 0x41b00000, irq 18 is not a HDSPe driven card. Linux Driver and HDSP mixer works perfectly.
Yes. Snd-hdspe works fine. Hdspe mixer gui works fine too. When i start hdspe mixer in terminal then i see "1 RME card found". When i start hdspeconfig in secound terminal then i see Rme aio card but program says rme aio is not a dsp hammerfall card.
This works if you use a Debian based distro. Otherwise you can't insert the module without Unknown symbol errors and hence a fail. At least this is the case in Arch Linux.
@@linuxgamecast Funny you should mention that. I have just tried it and now it's working. I had problems on Arch with inserting the driver. I tried Manjaro with the same problems but on Manjaro the DKMS has worked. I did try that on Arch but something was wrong. I will have to go back to Arch and try again. Sadly, the guy who developed this driver passed away. The trouble will just be maintaining the git repository so installing will continue to work. Some changes have already been made for newer kernels. I have an RME HDSPe AES which actually worked on the older driver but not that well. Latency wasn't that good. This new driver seems a lot better. Getting this RME to work on Linux is one of a couple of final problems to resolve so I can ditch OSX. The RME has been the most rock solid interface I ever used. I ran it in thunderbolt box with a Mac Mini. Never a single glitch in years. I rate RME extremely highly.
@@linuxgamecast I've got to retry DKMS on Arch. I definitely tried that but something was wrong. It's also important to blacklist that older driver because that cause havoc if the card you use gets that assigned. I'm reducing the latency down and down. Still no xruns. The other driver clearly does not function as well.
@@ryanstark2350I had a similar issue but installed fine with DKMS on Arch. Sometimes I have to try a few different kernels to get it to compile properly. Linux or Linux LTS and then letting DKMS to the rest. I even had a fail a few times but then when I reinstalled Linux RT DKMS work automatically.

Linux Driver and HDSP mixer works perfectly.
The hdspeconf utility requires the snd-hdspe driver.
@@linuxgamecast snd-hdspe driver and mixer is installed and work correcly. Only hdspeconf in terminal responds RME AIO is not a hammerfall card.
You compiled and installed the driver from the github repository? @@maciejjewua8091
Yes. Snd-hdspe works fine. Hdspe mixer gui works fine too. When i start hdspe mixer in terminal then i see "1 RME card found".
When i start hdspeconfig in secound terminal then i see

Like jimfrench mentioned on your github issue. DKMS is the correct way to go about things. Something I learned last year.
