Put the Sound of a Symphony on Your Desk
Record, overdub, and mix with the legendary sound quality of Apogee’s rack-mount Symphony I/O Mk II in an elegant and inspiring 10×14 audio interface that sits on your desk and fits in your bag.
Simplified Setup, Flagship Sound
The Symphony Desktop features the same high-quality conversion as the Symphony I/O Mk II, but without the rackmount setup.
Mix without the Mouse
Select your favorite mic preamp modeler, or shape your sound with onboard plugins with Symphony Desktop’s Touch Screen Control.
Creative Flexibility
DualPath Monitoring allows you to either to print your plugin FX as you record, or monitor them while keeping your raw take. Save and recall presets of your favorite plugin chains to speed up your workflow.
Classic Preamp Sounds
Apogee Alloy Preamp emulation combines analog circuitry and DSP processing to create authentic preamp modeling.
