DUET DESCRIPTION |
|
Portable Apogee-quality sound! Building on the success of the Ensemble, Apogee's Duet packages that same technology in a 2-channel audio interface. The low-profile design makes it a perfect fit in any Apple-based home studio, and Duet's 24-bit/96kHz audio resolution delivers pro-level audio straight into your system. Like Ensemble, Duet integrates seamlessly with Logic Pro, Soundtrack Pro, and GarageBand software for the ultimate in stability. A FireWire 400 connection provides bus power, so you can take Duet with you anywhere. For pristine audio on the go, it's Duet! Apogee Duet at a Glance:
Flexible Duet features two superb microphone inputs, each with phantom power and up to 75dB of gain. With Duet, you can record a pristine vocal track while playing your guitar or keyboard, stereo mic your acoustic or even capture a live concert. Duet's dual, 1/4" high impedance inputs are ideal for any combination of two instrumentalists: guitar and bass, bass and keyboard, guitar and guitar, etc. Simply plug into the breakout cable inputs labeled with the corresponding instrument icons and jam or record using your favorite Core Audio-compatible application. Listen Whether it's through the 1/4" outputs to your powered speakers or via the headphone jack, Duet delivers the amazing sound quality Apogee is known for. With Duet's multifunction controller knob, you can easily toggle back and forth between your monitors and headphones, control the volume and mute playback. Duet's studio reference-quality sound combined with simple and powerful control features make it an ideal choice for creating music or simply delivering the ultimate iTunes listening experience. Record and Podcast Along with exceptional sound quality and powerful control features Duet also offers incredible ease-of-use for recording. With software integration into Apple's OS X, GarageBand, Logic and Final Cut Studio, Duet empowers you with an interface designed exclusively for the Mac, making the technology of recording easy and elegant so you can focus on creating great music. And, with its unique GarageBand integration, Duet makes creating high-quality audio for Podcasting easy. Maestro Duet is the first two-channel audio interface with control functions built directly into Apple's Logic Pro, Soundtrack Pro and GarageBand... But what if you want to use Duet with another audio application on your Mac? Enter Apogee's Maestro software. With Maestro, you can control all of Duet's capabilities and settings and use Duet with any Core Audio-compatible application. Everything Duet is capable of and more is easily controlled and configured within Maestro. Multi-function Controller Knob Ensemble introduced advanced software control with Maestro and its dual, multi-function control knobs, and Duet refines and expands the control knob feature. With the assignable MIDI and selective muting options in Maestro, Duet's control knob becomes a one-touch manager of all your I/O functions while totally simplifying the process of recording and listening. I/O Connections The I/O breakout cable that comes with Duet makes connecting microphones, instruments and speakers easy and elegant. Each high-quality connector is clearly labeled with the corresponding icon and the speaker connectors are distinguished by a unique purple slider. The separation of the connectors allows you to direct and group your inputs and outputs anyway you want to, while providing a natural strain relief between Duet and the items connected. The breakout cable also greatly reduces Duet's footprint on your desktop and makes its sleek, low profile design, ergonomic and comfortable to use. Input and Output Monitoring You wouldn't expect it on a box this small, but Duet has it; Input and output LED meters. With a simple setting in Maestro, Duet lets you monitor your instrument and mic input levels or the output level going to your powered speakers and headphones. Bus Powered FireWire Duet is the first bus powered FireWire interface in the Apogee family. Which means your computer powers Duet, liberating you from a wall socket. So with Duet, a laptop and a little gear, you can roam to wherever your creativity takes you and make incredible sounding recordings in an inspired space. Apogee Duet Features:
