Legendary Sound Quality, Total Portability and Hardware DSP
all Come Together in a Beautiful New Design
 

In 2007, the original Apogee Duet shattered the expectations of what a home studio interface could be. Professional, personal and portable, Duet revolutionized independent recording and empowered musicians, producers and engineers with legendary Apogee sound quality, elegant design and effortless ease of use. Now, the all-new Duet 3 brings next-generation Apogee performance and features to a beautiful ultra-low profile design.

Duet 3 includes on-board hardware DSP that works with the Symphony ECS Channel Strip* for zero-latency recording with FX. Tuned by Bob Clearmountain, the ECS Channel Strip includes presets custom crafted by the legendary mixer so you can dial in a pro recording sound instantly. Ideal for music creation, voice recording, streaming and even gaming, you can use Duet 3 with your Mac or Windows workstation in your studio or on the go. Take your Duet 3 to the next level with the sleek Duet Dock* accessory for the ultimate ergonomic desktop experience.

You can still upgrade to Windows 10 for free if you ever want.

Are Apogee's drivers as good as RME's? I thought that was the main selling point for RME.

I’m afraid so. Nothing beats RME on drivers. Then again, Apogee went Apple Silicon native. Then again again, so did RME.
