8 channels of top-of-the-line recording.

The Ensemble Multichannel Audio Interface from Apogee delivers high performance converters, pristine preamps, and tight integration with Core Audio. You can use the Ensemble easily with Logic, MOTU Digital Performer, Steinberg Cubase, Bias Peak, Propellerhead Reason, Ableton Live, or any professional Macintosh recording application that supports Core Audio to make flawless recordings. The Ensemble is the first professional audio interface that is all digitally controlled and designed specifically for Apple computers and Logic.

The Ensemble features 36 simultaneously available audio channels with 8 channels of Apogee's legendary A/D/A conversion and 4 transparent, digitally controlled 75dB mic preamps. It also has 8 channels of ADAT I/O, 2 channels of S/PDIF coax and optical I/O, and FireWire connectivity to and from the computer. When you get an Ensemble, you also get premium Apogee technologies such as Soft Limit, UV22HR, and Intelliclock. Soft Limit ensures your signal gets the maximum digital input level without overs, UV22HR gives you a superior dither from 24-bit resolution down to 16-bit, and Intelliclock is an advanced, dual-stage clocking tool. These technologies-combined with converters that set the standard for the audio industry-make Ensemble an ideal choice for professionals seeking a high-definition, integrated solution that's easy to use.

Ensemble is the first and only multichannel audio interface that is fully integrated into Logic Pro. With Ensemble, everything from mic pre and output gain to sample and bit rate selection are controllable from within the Apogee Control Panel in Logic.

Missing Clarity? Get an Ensemble!

I just picked up an Apogee Ensemble for my studio. It has added the extra clarity that has been separating my recordings from what you hear on the radio. Apogee has been THE name in conversion, and this unit also add's for very clean high-gain solid state pre's. Apogee conversion has added crisper highs, tighter lows, and an overall presence that I could not achieve with my previous interface (echo layla).
