Symphony I/O Mk II Thunderbolt fortifies your studio with the refined power of Apogee's latest state-of-the-art multichannel audio interface for Thunderbolt-based Mac workstations. Whether you work in your personal project studio or a professional recording facility running any native DAW, Symphony I/O Mk II Thunderbolt gives you the flexibility of four base I/O configurations, and you'll have the option to expand your system up to 32 concurrent channels per unit - all with ultra-low 1.35mS latency!

Available in several different configurations, Symphony I/O has you covered whether you're running a home studio, a project studio, a scoring stage, or a world-class commercial facility. Apogee offers four basic I/O schemes: 2 x 6, 8 x 8, 16 x 16, or 8 x 8 with eight mic preamps. And it's easy to expand your setup as your needs grow. Featuring two module slots, your Symphony I/O Mk II system can accommodate up to 32 inputs and outputs of A/D and D/A conversion per unit. At Sweetwater, we're impressed with the Symphony I/O Mk II. Cutting-edge performance and flexibility, and amazing value - exactly what we expect from Apogee.
