I had just moved in a collection of studio equipment including my treasured Fireface 400 so things were looking rather bleak.\u00a0 I sent the unit back to RME and fully expected to have to pay for it to be replaced but apparently, it&#8217;s water proof!\u00a0 After two days in the cold, muddy river the Fireface is in perfect working order. Which is more than I can say for our boat&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>We are pleased that we were able to help get David back on track.<\/p>\n<p>Please note that the RME Fireface 400 has since been discontinued, check out the <a href=\"\/rme\/firewire-usb\/rme-fireface-uc\/\">RME Fireface UC<\/a> or the <a href=\"\/rme\/firewire-usb\/rme-fireface-ucx\/\">RME Fireface UCX<\/a> for a similar audio interface.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; We recently received a VERY unusual repair request for an RME Fireface 400, in fact nobody at RME had heard of such a request before!
