The full potential of native processing has been realized in the Mac Pro. The power of Symphony and Mac Pro combined drives Logic Pro* effortlessly and allows you to concentrate on making music instead of making adjustments to your DAW.

"Apogee has always had the very best quality products in its field, so we were interested in Symphony as soon as we heard about it. After initially hearing the Symphony System, we were pretty excited about the clarity and definition. Once we got it into our new space the sound was simply phenomenal...It not only sounds better, it makes our entire recording process run more smoothly."

"Technology has finally caught up to my needs in a DAW. I'm running Logic Pro with the new Symphony System with fantastic results.  The Symphony System finally brings near zero latency to native recording, and the new converters (AD/DA-16Xs) sound absolutely fantastic. Logic Pro sounds much better than any other DAW I've used before. The low-end is warm and the high-end is silky smooth. It is a very efficient program and not very taxing on the CPU, which, along with the new Intel Macs, leaves me with an astounding surplus of processing power. The quality of this system meets and even surpasses the large format analog consoles I was used to. I have mixed many Rock and Metal records and until recently, I wouldn't even have considered mixing "in the box". Now, however, I mix nearly all projects in Logic."

"Most simply put, the Symphony System rocks and is rock solid! With most big projects, I prefer mixing ‘out of the box’ through an analog console. Being a Logic user, my new Symphony system is hands down the best sounding I/O option with plenty of expandability for larger track counts. The other big bonus is the Big Ben clock, the C777, built right into the AD-16X. The timing precision is so solid, and with the simple user interface, I easily know all is running smoothly. I now have the sonic quality Apogee is known for, mixed with seamless integration on my Mac Pro/Logic rig. Life in the studio is good!"

Geek out! Tape Op Reviews Symphony

Tape Op's, Andy Hong sells his Pro Tools HD rig... and reviews his new Symphony set-up.

"The system sounds absolutely stunning, and it’s
so damn powerful, I have yet to do a project on it that comes even close to maxing the CPU and HD loads. And by the way, it cost significantly less than what a “comparable” PT HD rig would cost. (Now there’s a can of worms!)."

Much More than Just a PCI Card

spacer
The Symphony PCI Card is the Key to      the Symphony System...

...the most powerful native audio workstation available. At 32-channels of I/O per card, Symphony connects Apogee’s legendary X-Series and Rosetta Series converters to Apple’s revolutionary Mac Pro and Logic Pro audio creation and production DAW. The result is the lowest latency available in a native audio system (1.6 milliseconds at 96k) and an incredible capacity for plug-in processing and high channel count recording that outperforms popular card-based DSP systems. And, with all of those benefits, a Symphony System comes at a fraction of the cost, making it an undeniable choice for professional high-end audio.
