The Apogee BOOM USB-C Audio Interface offers unparalleled audio quality for musicians, podcasters and livestreamers. Featuring Apogee's legendary AD/DA conversion and mic preamps, the compact BOOM captures audio with pristine clarity. It has two inputs—a combination XLR/TRS for mics and instruments and a standard 1/4" input for line-level gear. The DSP Symphony ECS Channel Strip provides EQ, compression and drive on both inputs simultaneously with zero latency. BOOM also includes a loopback function, ideal for livestreaming with multiple audio sources. It's powered via USB-C, so no power supply is needed. The road-ready Apogee BOOM lets you create content anywhere.

Premium Components for Superior Sound

The BOOM contains premium components that capture audio with stunning depth and detail. Its mic preamp provides up to 62 dB of clean, noiseless gain to power any mic. The BOOM can handle high-output mics without distortion. The result is a pristine signal path that translates the full dynamic range of any audio source.

Built-In DSP for an Inspired Workflow

The BOOM offers real-time hardware DSP. Its Symphony ECS Channel Strip provides 3-band EQ, compression and drive on both inputs simultaneously with zero latency. You can apply effects while recording or monitor with effects engaged—all without bogging down your CPU. The ECS Channel Strip is tuned to perfection by renowned producer/engineer Bob Clearmountain.

Touch Control with iPad Pro

The BOOM works with iOS devices for an ultraportable recording solution. When used with an iPad, you can control the ECS Channel Strip by touch. Dial in the perfect sound anywhere without being tethered to your desktop or laptop.
