16. Configuring the Babyface Pro 
16.1 Settings Dialog 
Configuring the Babyface Pro is done via its own settings dialog. Start the program Fireface 
USB Settings. The mixer of the Babyface Pro (TotalMix FX) can be configured by starting the 
program Totalmix. 
The Babyface Pro’s hardware offers a number of helpful, well thought-out practical functions 
and options which affect how the card operates - it can be configured to suit many different 
requirements. 
The following is available in the Settings dialog: 
•  Operation of the DSP 
•  Configuration of the digital I/O 
•  Current sample rate 
• Synchronization behaviour 
•  State of input and output 
Any changes performed in the 
Settings dialog are applied 
immediately - confirmation (e.g. by 
exiting the dialog) is not required. 
However, settings should not be 
changed during playback or record 
if it can be avoided, as this can 
cause unwanted noises. 
Use the drop down menu 
Properties For to select the unit to 
be configured. 
On the right of it the current 
firmware and driver version is 
shown. 
Options 
DSP – EQ for Record 
Switches the 3-band EQ and Low Cut of all input channels into the recording path. In case 
Loopback has been activated the EQ and Low Cut of the Output channel is placed into the re-
cording path. See also chapter 23.6. 
Optical Out 
The optical TOSLINK output can operate as ADAT or SPDIF output. The Channel Status is 
fixed to Consumer state. 
Note
: The optical input detects the incoming format automatically.
