8 channels of top-of-the-line recording.
The Ensemble Multichannel Audio Interface from
Apogee delivers high performance converters, pristine preamps, and tight integration with Core Audio. You can use the Ensemble
easily with Logic, MOTU Digital Performer, Steinberg Cubase, Bias Peak, Propellerhead Reason, Ableton Live, or any professional
Macintosh recording application that supports Core Audio to make flawless recordings. The Ensemble is the first professional
audio interface that is all digitally controlled and designed specifically for Apple computers and Logic.
The Ensemble
features 36 simultaneously available audio channels with 8 channels of Apogee's legendary A/D/A conversion and 4 transparent,
digitally controlled 75dB mic preamps. It also has 8 channels of ADAT I/O, 2 channels of S/PDIF coax and optical I/O, and
FireWire connectivity to and from the computer. When you get an Ensemble, you also get premium Apogee technologies such as
Soft Limit, UV22HR, and Intelliclock. Soft Limit ensures your signal gets the maximum digital input level without overs, UV22HR
gives you a superior dither from 24-bit resolution down to 16-bit, and Intelliclock is an advanced, dual-stage clocking tool.
These technologies-combined with converters that set the standard for the audio industry-make Ensemble an ideal choice for
professionals seeking a high-definition, integrated solution that's easy to use.
Ensemble is the first and only multichannel
audio interface that is fully integrated into Logic Pro. With Ensemble, everything from mic pre and output gain to sample
and bit rate selection are controllable from within the Apogee Control Panel in Logic.
