Apogee Symphony I/O

Apogee has redefined the audio interface landscape with the release of the Symphony MkII, a culmination of technological advancement and innovative design. This interface, engineered for computer-based recording, embraces the rapid evolution of connectivity and processing power in modern computing. 

The Symphony MkII stands atop Apogee's product line, boasting remarkable improvements over its predecessor. It features HDX compatibility and also integrates with the Waves SoundGrid and Dante for Network Audio. The interface distinguishes itself with a sleek colour touchscreen and enhanced audio specifications, claiming the throne for the best A-D and D-A conversion available in any Thunderbolt interface.

This modular system features a rackmounting base unit for audio transfer to and from a computer, complemented by interchangeable I/O cards. The Symphony MkII is designed to operate at extremely low latencies, which is made possible by Apogee’s Maestro software utility, which facilitates effortless monitoring configurations and cue mixes.

The Symphony MkII's thoughtful design extends to its practicality. Users of the original Symphony I/O can rejoice in the backward compatibility of I/O modules, allowing a seamless transition to the new system. However, investing in MkII cards is recommended to experience the upgraded A-D and D-A conversion fully.

Apogee's commitment to quality is evident in the Symphony MkII's sound quality. With an impressive dynamic range on both inputs and outputs, it sets a new standard in audio interface performance. The Symphony MkII also features state-of-the-art mic preamps, providing unmatched clarity and precision.

The Symphony MkII, however, is more than just a technical powerhouse. Its user-friendly interface, characterised by the intuitive touchscreen and seamless integration with Logic Pro X, makes it a joy to use. The interface's design and functionality make it an ideal front end for a Pro Tools HDX system and an excellent choice for native Thunderbolt operation.

The Symphony MkII is not just an interface; it's an investment in unparalleled audio fidelity and cutting-edge technology tailored for the discerning audio professional and enthusiast alike.
