Designed to integrate at the heart of the RME workflow, the ARC USB becomes the bridge between your interfaces and your hands. It follows the philosophy of stability and flexibility of TotalMix FX by offering immediate hardware control. Compared to previous remote controls, it adds universal USB connectivity, more customization, and standalone operation with the flagship models of the range.
Ideal for project studios, broadcast, post-production, and live sound, the ARC USB is aimed at sound engineers who want instant access to critical functions without a mouse or screen. It is also suitable for solo creators who want to manage monitoring, cue mixes, and snapshots with a single press while keeping their hands on the instruments.
The 15 backlit buttons are fully programmable: assign them to mute/solo your buses, recall snapshots, control sends, or DSP effects depending on your session. The knob allows fine and contextual adjustments, perfect for refining a level, a pan, or quickly navigating between your mixes.
The dual connection approach offers maximum flexibility. Via USB, the ARC controls all RME devices through the computer using TotalMix FX. In remote mode, it connects directly to Fireface UFX+ and UFX II for standalone control, useful in mobile setups or without a computer. Compatibility with multiple interfaces in parallel facilitates complex setups.
