Convenient OLED display tells you everything you need to know

The Apogee Duet offers a full-color OLED display that gives you visual feedback for a number of functions, including metering, input/output value levels, muting, phantom power, and more. All of this information is also available in the convenient and well-designed Maestro 2 software for iOS. Beyond that, the Apogee Duet features two configurable touchpads, located on either side of its main encoder knob. Use them to quickly access output functions assigned through Maestro 2 such as mute outputs, toggle headphone source, dim outputs, and beyond.

Immaculate, next-gen AD/DA converters

At Sweetwater, we know that excellent sound quality is imperative when you're recording. Much like its mic pres, the Duet's AD/DA converters are the result of Apogee's no-compromise design, giving you the best possible audio and monitoring quality. Duet's advanced circuitry and state-of-the-art components deliver a streamlined signal path. The result? Amazingly transparent-sounding recordings.

World-class mic preamps

Duet's two microphone preamplifiers incorporate cutting-edge technology, giving you seamless gradation throughout their incredible 75dB gain range. This lets you dial in your ideal level with the main controller knob (or from within software), while enjoying amazingly low noise and stunning, lustrous detail. Duet's mic preamps play nicely with all dynamic, condenser, and ribbon mics, letting you capture audio without compromise.
