Professional 2-Channel FireWire Audio Interface for Macintosh
Housed in a slender, ultra-compact chassis, Duet is a 24-bit /96kHz FireWire audio interface with a
small footprint designed for use with Macintosh computers. It offers compatibility with any Core
Audio compliant application, and it has control functions integrated into Apple’s Logic Pro,
Soundtrack Pro and GarageBand software. This lets you create a simple and elegant yet
powerful personal audio system that can take on tasks from tracking and editing to mixing
and mastering. Duet features two channels of Apogee’s legendary A/D and D/A conver-
sion with two premium, digitally controlled microphone preamps offering switchable
+48V phantom power, and 75 dB of gain, as well as two 1/4” unbalanced high impedance
instrument inputs. Two channels of reference quality output are also available via the 1/4” speaker
connections and studio quality headphone output. The large, multi-function controller knob allows you to easily select the
input or output source and set gain or level. Apogee’s Maestro software application also allows you to assign the knob for
advanced control of MIDI devices and software parameters.
