Description
The Apogee Symphony I/O Mk II 8x8 MP + 16x16 SE is a 2U rackmount multichannel audio interface built on the Symphony I/O Mk II chassis, configured here with an 8x8 MP module and a 16x16 SE module, plus both Thunderbolt and Pro Tools HD connectivity. As delivered it provides 24 analog inputs and 24 analog outputs including 8 mic preamps, running through Apogee's flagship conversion.
Installed I/O Modules
- 8x8 MP: 8 mic/line/instrument inputs with digitally controlled preamps and +48V phantom power, 8 balanced line outputs, plus AES, ADAT, and S/PDIF digital I/O
- 16x16 SE: 16 balanced line inputs and 16 balanced line outputs on DB25, using Apogee's Special Edition conversion with the ESS 9822pro A/D converter
Connectivity
Thunderbolt and Pro Tools HD cards are both installed, so one unit serves a Mac over Thunderbolt and a Pro Tools HDX or HD Native rig over DigiLink. Rooms that track to Pro Tools HD and mix in a native DAW can switch hosts without re-cabling the analog I/O.
Chassis and Control
The Symphony I/O Mk II chassis holds Apogee's flagship conversion, a front-panel color touchscreen for input selection, gain, metering, and monitor control at the rack, and two module bays for up to 32 channels. Because the I/O is modular, the same chassis can be re-specified later as the room's channel count changes. Apogee's Symphony Control software mirrors the hardware controls on the computer, and the optional Apogee Control hardware remote adds a physical level knob and assignable buttons.
