From RME
MADI to DAW
Furthermore, the maximum balanced line output level of the XLR line outputs has been increased from +15 dBu to +24 dBu. The stereo headphone output of the MADIface XT II also delivers a significantly higher output level of +19 dBu and, with an output impedance of 1 Ohm, significantly more power than its predecessor. All outputs also have several switchable level options.

USB 3 Class Compliant Audio
The MADIface XT II operates in two different modes: driver-based USB 3 and Class Compliant. The Class Compliant mode is a standard that is natively supported by operating systems like Windows, Mac OSX and Linux distributions. No proprietary drivers are required, the device will be directly recognized when the CC firmware is loaded.The new MADIface XT II focuses on USB 3.0, as PCIExpress can no longer be used externally. The new device's Class Compliant mode has been significantly upgraded, as all 394 channels can now be transmitted simultaneously without a driver. In addition, there are various formats and settings for the channel sequence in order to make optimum use of Class Compliant.
ARC USB Remote Control - Plug’n Play Plus
The optional available ARC USB connects to your computer via USB, and talks to TotalMix FX directly. It has 15 freely assignable and illuminated buttons, one encoder wheel, and a TS jack to connect a foot switch.The ARC USB is a USB 1.1 MIDI remote control for the MADIface XT II. Thanks to operating as a UAC 1 class device, it is natively compatible to Windows and Mac OS X. As soon as it is present in the operating system, TotaIMix FX will automatically detect the ARC USB, and communicate with it via simple MIDI remote commands to control the XT II.The MADIface XT II operates in two different modes: driver-based USB 3 and Class Compliant.
