And no RoomEQ for Babyface. Nowhere did we say that.

No need to apologize, all good. We all learn new things ...

This shows EQ, not RoomEQ.

No, here I show that I was able to cause noise and how to fix the problem.

Ok, sorry, I saw this posting in the context of your question / claim about RoomEQ as the postings followed one after the other.

I read somewhere that TotalMix FX 2 will work with all RME models from the last 20 years and I automatically thought that Room EQ would also work on Babyface, but I could be wrong.

See my last two postings above.

And TotalMix FX is the common control GUI for all interfaces that support TotalMix FX, but they have different HW capabilities.
So not everything is available on every HW.

Beta version

I think this is a misunderstanding. RoomEQ requires a dedicated DSP, which the BBF Pro does not have.

That needed DSP (which the BBF Pro does not have) is also the one providing the FX.

Consequently, only interfaces equipped with it, such as the UCX II, 802 FX, UFX II, UFX III, MADIface XT II or HDSPe MADI FX, support RoomEQ (and Crossfeed).

Thanks!
It would be great if this solves the problem.
Downloaded the file and there is only one Workspace, no Snapshot. https://ibb.co/Kpc3cvhz
This is how it looks on me and I couldn't make any noise, I was starting, restarting, switching between my Workspace and the one provided by NientG.
But that doesn't matter, if Matthias Carstens managed to make noise and found the problem and fixed it with the firmware update.
I hope this is fixed now and I don't have to change my audio interface. By the end of September, a ROOM EQ is expected to be available for this interface (Room EQ did not work with BF) (Room EQ needed DSP which the BF Pro does not have).

PS:
I changed a few settings in the NientG workspace and when I switched to my workspace the noise came back in. Yes it's the same pink noise, the problem is the same, and is only on the right main output.

This morning, after the PC boots up, I start to listen to a track, and I was not sure if I was not hearing right or what. The music was bass heavy. I don't remember making that track that way. I disable the EQ in Totalmix and I hear a pop/click in the right channel and the track sounds "normal" again.
So, the EQ did not load correctly on startup but not the extremes of distortion or white noise... it seems (very rarely) it can load with less extreme EQ boosts.

Today I had the exact same problem.
I had no noise, just a super loud low end.
