Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. What is the exact DAC chipset manufacturer/model please?

A: The manufacturer has not provided any details about the DAC chipset used in the Apogee Electronics Symphony Desktop 10x14 USB Audio Interface. For further assistance with your inquiry, you can contact Apogee directly through the link on their support page: https://apogeedigital.com/company/contact

Q: 2. Will the use of a quality Y-Splitter cable (1/8 male to twin females) greatly affect the preamp's output quality & efficiency to each headphone? Can the slight signal level loss be well compensated just by raising the volume control?

A: If you are using a quality cable designed for splitting headphones it should be wired correctly and the main concern would be signal loss. This can be compensated for with volume. You would want to ensure the headphones impedances are still within the capabilities of the unit.

Q: 3. What's the release date?

A: These are available for pre-order now. At the moment we do not have a specific ETA for arrival time.

Q: 4. 1) Will it work out of the box with the New MacBook Pro M1 Max ? 2) without buying the dock, you don't get xlr inputs correct ?

A: Apogee does not yet specify compatibility between the Apogee Electronics Duet 3 Ultracompact 2x4 USB Type-C Audio Interface and the Apple M1 products. You are still able to get XLR inputs on the Apogee Electronics Duet 3 Ultracompact 2x4 USB Type-C Audio Interface without the accessory dock via the breakout cable included with purchase.

Q: 5. Does it work with M1 iPad Pro?

A: Yes it will.

Q: 6. Do BH have the optional handle shown in the product photos?

A: The underslung handle comes with the 220 and 460 kits.

Q: 7. Is the battery replaceable?

A: The battery is built into the unit.

Q: 8. Headphone out max impedance please?

A: Per Apogee: Headphone Output: 1 stereo 1/4″ headphone output on front panel THD+N: -110dB @19dBu into 600 Ohm (=80mW) -101dB @14dBu into 32 Ohm (=470mW) Dynamic Range: 121db A weighted Output: Apogee’s proprietary Constant Current Drive™ provides smooth frequency response with any headphones

Q: 9. Is this just a generic USB mini cable?

A: It is a dedicated, proprietary USB cable designed for these products only.

Q: 10. How do you sync this remote to the gimbal

A: The remote control connects to either a Manfrotto MVG220 or MVG460 gimbal via Bluetooth.

[1.27 lb] We needed to connect out Apogee mic to a macbook for recording in Garageband. This fit the bill. Does exactly what it's supposed to do, and we're nearly complete with recording audio to be released on our web page next week. Shipped fast too. Thanks! 5

[1.27 lb] This little device is easy to use and has great clean sound. Plugged it into tone bridge to practice and was set to go! Built on a metal case it’s study. Not too happy about the middle button as it’s rubbery and doesn’t provide good feedback but not a big deal. Wish it had a USB-C instead of micro USB and could have used another amp output rather than just a headphone jack. 5

[1.27 lb] I upgraded my Apogee Element 24 to this new Symphony Desktop interface. The first thing I noticed was the quality of the headphone preamp. I don't have a well treated room in my apartment. So mixing with headphone(Sennheiser HD650 is my main workhorse) is my usual practice. Element 24 has a solid HP. But the HP on Symphony Desktop gives me even better details and clearer bottom end on frequency spectrum. Compared to Symphony Desktop, the HP on Element was a bit muddy at the bottom end. The sound stage is also noticeably wider with symphony desktop. For mic preamp, I haven't done any comparison yet. I'll update this post when I have time to do it. 5

[1.27 lb] I have had a Duet on my officedesk since the first one was released [X] years ago. Since I am constantly listening to music, reviewing mixes and making sure I have the cleanest, highest quality audio coming out of my Mac, my Duet is the only DAC I trust to ensure that I'm hearing music as it's intended to sound. And the Duet 3 is just the sleekest, coolest looking one to date. I love the big control knob, the ability to quick-mute without having to reach for my mouse, and how straightforward, intuitive and seamlessly it integrates with the Mac OS (for outputs and inputs alike). Apogee gear, and the Duet specifically, have just become such a trusted part of my setup - I don't ever want to listen to music out of my rig without it. 5

[1.27 lb] Apogee are once again outdoing themselves, that's my favorite interface right now, also have RME & UAD but Apogee just kills it! 5

[1.27 lb] Made my life so much easier! No need to keep flipping through different menus and such, every thing at your fingertips and having actual knobs and buttons to turn make everything better! I really love the customizable layout of apogee control as well 5

[1.27 lb] This case is great! It works for both the Duet and the One. It is very durable and has enough space for all the chords and cables that come with. Worth the purchase! 5
