Apogee Duet sets the industry standard for portable professional audio recording on Mac and iPad. Made for the musician, producer and engineer that wants the ultimate sound quality and elegant simplicity, Duet features legendary Apogee AD/DA conversion, two world-class microphone preamps, USB MIDI I/O and ESS Sabre32 DAC technology. With Duets two combo inputs you can connect microphones, guitars, keyboards or line level devices such as external mic preamps or a mixing board. Duet also includes four analog outputs two 1/4 balanced outputs for connection to speakers or outboard equipment and a separate, independently controlled 1/4 stereo headphone output.Soft Limit Protection from Digital OversAn Apogee technology first introduced in 1992 on Apogees AD-500 converter, Soft Limit can be heard on countless platinum selling records around the world. Once a technology exclusively reserved for Apogees most advanced audio converters, Soft Limit is included in Duet and can be enabled in Apogee Maestro software. This superior analog design prevents the digital clipping that causes distortion by instantaneously rounding off transient peaks before they hit the analog-to-digital converter. Soft Limit allows several more decibels of apparent level to be recorded while subtly providing an analog-like warmth to the sound.A Difference You Will HearFrom the mic preamps to the AD/DA converters and the clocking, Duet is best-in-class and cutting-edge Apogee technology. With components carefully selected in critical listening tests and a highly efficient circuit design, Duet was built by Apogee engineers to make a difference you can hear.Pristine, Next Generation AD/DA ConvertersDuets AD/DA converters are designed to deliver the purest recordings and best listening experience possible.
