Apogee introduces new Ensemble Thunderbolt
Read all about it here:
http://www.apogeedigital.com/products/ensemble Looks like a great product with great features. Note that there is no mention of an Avid branded one of these, like the recent Quartet and Duet. So it won't be compatible with Windows. But Mac users, check it out! |

Re: Apogee introduces new Ensemble Thunderbolt
Very interesting box!
Some very bold latency through DAW claims (same as HD Native!). For more project oriented studios a very nice feature set....

Re: Apogee introduces new Ensemble Thunderbolt
Interesting.
This looks like a decent unit. This is what the Omni I/O should have been...So I'm guessing there won't BE an Avid branded one.

Re: Apogee introduces new Ensemble Thunderbolt
Thank you for informing nst7.
First, I APPLAUD Apogee for including TWO Thunderbolt ports on this device making it possible to daisy chain TB-devices on a single port. This would be the only sensible solution to me - some other vendors seem to disagree. *clap clap*! I'm scanning through the product tour.. This device, although aimed at a musicians project studio, comes impressively close to what I am in need of for my post studio. From my point of view: Pros:
Again, these are my points of view. I'll consider getting this device.

Re: Apogee introduces new Ensemble Thunderbolt
You can buy a nice DB-25 to XLR (or TRS or combo connector) patch panel for a few hundred dollars and you are all set. Keeping the design to 1U was a very good decision.

I don't mind 2U audio interfaces, at least if its my primary.

Re: Apogee introduces new Ensemble Thunderbolt
This is a really nice looking box, I'd love to hear reports once folks get their hands on it. Besides 8 Mic Pres I like the compliment of digital connectors, I'd need several S/PDIF going both ways in my case and could live with coax to Toslink adapters.
