 Santa Monica, CA, October 24, 2008 - Apogee Electronics announced today that Symphony 64 is now shipping worldwide to authorized dealers and distributors. Symphony 64 is a 64 channel, 24bit/192kHz PCI Express card made to interface Apogee’s X-Series and Rosetta Series converters directly to Apple’s Mac Pro creating The Symphony System. The Symphony System excels on several levels; the award-winning sound quality of Apogee’s AD&DA Converters, the groundbreaking power of Apple’s Mac Pro, and the stability and ultra low latency performance of the Symphony 64 card. This combination provides a flexible, stable, high-end solution for customers seeking a workstation compatible with any Core Audio application. Symphony 64 features Extended Audio Routing with VBus and SBus technology. VBus allows users to route demanding, stand-alone software instruments, directly between Core Audio based applications, instead of running them as plug-ins. Symphony’s SBus doubles the DSP power of The Symphony System by facilitating the communication of digital audio between Symphony equipped Macs with a single cable. Now it is possible to route audio to a second computer and back again for plug-in processing, sample libraries, soft-synth players, and session transfers from one Core Audio application to another.

Not only have my “demos” become as good as proper studio recordings, but Apogee did something special by making Duet’s user interface extremely easy to use with controls that have been simplified to perfection. Recording is effortless and still as fast as ever, but with the superior quality of any pro studio I’ve ever been in.”
Alex Greenwald - Songwriter and member of Phantom Planet “One of the keys to my success in Second Life is the sound quality that I deliver for my virtual performances. Apogee’s Duet is an indispensable part of that equation, giving my voice and guitar all the warmth and clarity I need to ensure my fans get the most “real” listening experience possible.”
