FEATURES
Digitally-Controlled, Multi-Channel FireWire Audio Interfaces
Ensemble is a multi-channel 24-bit/192kHz digital
audio interface with18 inputs and outputs.
Designed specifically for use with Macintosh,
it is controllable natively from Apple’s Logic Pro
software. Ensemble features eight channels of
premium 24-bit/192kHz A-D/D-A conversion including four digitally controlled 75db mic preamps. There are also eight
channels of ADAT I/O, two channels of S/PDIF coax and optical I/O, and a Firewire port. Ensemble combines the converters
with additional features such as “SoftLimit”, “UV22HR”, and ultra-low jitter “Intelliclock”. For those that want to add Apogee
quality to an existing setup, the “Stand-Alone
Mode” enables access to Ensemble’s functions, via
the unit’s digital outputs, without being connected
by Firewire to your Mac.
A battery-powered version of Ensemble, the Ensemble Mobile offers an “on-location” solution for capturing studio-perfect
recordings anywhere. Power is supplied via an XLR-4 connector. Can also be powered by plugging it in with the supplied
external AC to DC power adaptor. Ensemble Mobile will work with any DC power source with voltage between 11 and 16v,
and can run off a 7AH battery for about four hours.
Whether in the studio or on location, Ensemble and Ensemble Mobile are the ideal choice for professionals seeking a
high-definition, integrated audio solution.

independent of the computer. Using the included Maestro software and a Mac, configure your
low latency and routing settings only once. Ensemble will remember the settings, even when
disconnected from the computer and allows access to all front panel settings, such as mic pre
gain and output levels, which are fully functional while in Stand-Alone Mode.

Maestro — Mixing and Control Application
Bundled with Ensemble,
Maestro software provides
control, routing and mixing
functionality. It offers a whole
new level of precision control
that elegantly integrates
Ensemble hardware with OS X applications to create a powerful native audio production.
Maestro features full Ensemble functionality control, multiple low latency mixers, hardware
control panels and a routing matrix compatible with Rosetta 800, Rosetta 200, AD-16X and
DA-16X. The VBus architecture, designed for use with Symphony PCI-e and PCI Express cards,
delivers 32-channels per card of virtual routing between any Core Audio application, and
zero latency with minimal processing power that ensures maximum performance.
