Overview - RME Audio ADI-2 Remote User Manual

5. Overview

The ADI-2 Remote is a true remote – it mostly only reads out the device state, and controls it like
when doing the same on the unit or the MRC. All the intelligence, rules and know how are still in
the unit, all reactions are controlled and performed by the unit – not by the software.
There is one exception, though:
Link
The device has a special Dual Volume mode to control two outputs simultaneously. The app offers
Link instead, which links (or gangs) any of the output volume settings controlled by the app.
It is possible to activate Dual Volume on the unit, but then the app will control not both but only
one channel per time – unless Link is activated on the same channels.
The Link state is remembered by the app on restart, but volume values are not. Once again the
current values are just read out of the device – which is enough to make it work correctly after a
shutdown or reboot.
The Pages
The app consists of several main pages:
 Line Input (for 2 Pro and 2/4 Pro)
 Line Out, Phones Out, IEM Out for the DAC, Phones Out 1/2 and Phones Out 3/4 for 2 Pro
and 2/4 Pro
 A general Device page with all channel unrelated settings
 A PEQ Editor that can be used to edit, save or load PEQs without changing the currently active
EQ (listen to music while you play with it...).
The app is interactive and fully synchronized. Change the volume on the unit or in the app – both
will stay in sync. When toggle mode is active and Toggle is clicked the current channel page will
change accordingly. Same when plugging/unplugging phones when Mute vs. xx is active. Etc.
If no device is found the app enters Demo mode with ADI-2/4 Pro SE shown, so anyone interested
can have a look.
In fact it is possible to create or edit PEQs even while offline, with the PEQ Editor, and load and
save these from/to disk.
The app itself has two Settings available directly from the app menu. One disables the automatic
change of shown output page. The other one enables to load up to 20 PEQs simultaneously into
the unit via a Setup file. This is a nice feature for copying device states quickly between units, but
usually users want to have full control what to load and then only load one or the other PEQ to
specific slots – that's why this option is off by default.
Help
Although the app should be easy to use and self-explanatory - if something is unclear try the
included help from the menu (German and English).
