From Our Research Team:

Brilliant Sound, Go-sized Interface

Thanks to the elegant simplicity of Duet 2, you can effortlessly capture brilliant recordings on your Mac. The slim design fits right on your desktop, and the USB connection makes it easy to connect to Macs across multiple desktop and laptop generations. Duet 2 includes a sturdy breakout cable that keeps your desktop organized, putting your 2-in/4-out connectivity where you need it. What's more, as you'd expect from Apogee, the sound quality is stunning. Use the two freshly redesigned microphone preamps to capture instruments in stereo. Apogee even completely redesigned the converters and added a Soft Limit feature, giving the Duet 2 an edge over its best-selling predecessor, the Duet.





To really take Duet 2 over the top, Apogee added 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 that comes included. Beyond that, the Apogee Duet 2 features two configurable touch pads, 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.

If you're looking for a premium interface that is sized to travel with you, but just at home on your desktop, the Apogee Duet 2 is an unbeatable choice. You get outstanding sound quality, the right I/O, and new workflow features that help you get the top-level results you want.

Apogee Duet 2 Features at a Glance:
  • 2-in/4-out USB Audio Interface for Mac
  • Breakout Cable with 2 XLR/TRS Combo Inputs and 2 TRS Outputs
  • 1/4" Headphone Jack
  • Color OLED Display Offers Visual Feedback
  • 2 Configurable Touch Pads to Improve Yor Workflow
  • Included Maestro 2 Software for Easy Configuration

Pair the Duet 2 audio interface with your favorite USB-equipped Mac, and you're ready for pro production!
