7.2 De-installing the Drivers

A de-installation of the driver files is not necessary. Thanks to full Plug & Play support, the

driver files will not be loaded after the hardware has been removed.

Unfortunately Windows Plug & Play methods do not cover the additional autorun entries of To-

talMix, the Settings dialog, and the registration of the ASIO driver. These entries can be re-

moved from the registry by a software de-installation request. This request can be found (like all

de-installation entries) in Control Panel, Programs and Features (XP: Add or Remove Pro-

grams). Click on the entry 'RME Fireface USB'. Here it is also possible to remove the driver

itself. Select Windows Driver Package – RME Fireface USB, then Uninstall.

7.3 Firmware Update

The Flash Update Tool updates the firmware of the Babyface Pro to the latest version. It re-

quires an already installed driver. Please download the FUT from the RME website at

http://rme.to/usbe

Unzip the downloaded file and start the firmware update with fut_usb.exe. The Flash Update

Tool displays the current revision of the Babyface Pro's firmware, and whether it needs an up-

date or not. If so, then simply press the 'Update' button. A progress bar will indicate when the

flash process is finished (Verify Ok).

After the update the Babyface Pro needs to be reset. This is done by powering down the Baby-

face Pro for 5 seconds. A reboot of the computer is not necessary.

When the update unexpectedly fails (status: failure), the unit's Safety BIOS will be used from

the next boot on, the unit stays fully functional. The flash process should then be tried again.
