Description
The Apogee Symphony I/O Mk II 8x8 MP + 2x6 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 2x6 SE module, plus both Thunderbolt and Dante connectivity. As delivered it provides 10 analog inputs and 14 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
- 2x6 SE: 2 analog inputs and 6 analog outputs with Special Edition conversion, plus AES and optical digital I/O
Connectivity
Thunderbolt and Dante cards are both installed. The unit works as a native Thunderbolt interface on a Mac and as a Dante endpoint on a Gigabit Ethernet network, and the Dante card also provides DigiLink for Pro Tools HDX and HD Native systems.
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.
