-
Apogee

Apogee Electronics' February 2022 software release for Symphony Desktop delivers the ModEQ 6, ModComp and Opto-3A plugins to the hardware DSP on Symphony Desktop.

You can now use and control the complete suite of Apogee's 6 Hardware DSP DualPath plugins directly from the touch screen.

Apogee says:

Symphony Desktop is the only audio interface that lets you record, monitor, mix and master using the Apogee hardware DSP on your interface and the same native plugins in your DAW – no audio interface hardware required.

What's New in this Release:

  • Symphony Desktop (firmware update required- included in this release).
  • New hardware DSP plugins:
    • ModEQ-6.
    • ModComp.
    • Opto-3A.

6 Hardware DSP plugins are included with Symphony Desktop:

  • Symphony ECS Channel Strip – EQ, Compression and Saturation.
  • Pultec EQP-1A – Program Equalizer.
  • Pultec MEQ-5 – Mid-range Equalizer.
  • Opto-3A – Vintage Compressor/Limiter.
  • ModEQ 6 – Modern 6 Band Visual Equalizer.
  • ModComp – Modern Visual Compressor/Limiter.

All of the Hardware DSP plugins are free when you register your Symphony Desktop and install the firmware. You can control Hardware DSP plugins from the Symphony Desktop touch screen and print and monitor through FX for zero latency recording.

2 Native plugins are included with Symphony Desktop:

  • Symphony ECS Channel Strip – EQ, Compression and Saturation (hardware DSP/native plugin).
  • Clearmountain's Spaces – Bob Clearmountain's Personalized Reverb Spaces (native only plugin).

The Symphony ECS Channel Strip is a DualPath plugin allowing you to unlock the powerful hybrid DSP/Native plugin workflow that is unique to Symphony Desktop. With hybrid plugins you can print from hardware DSP or record/monitor from your DAW without printing using hardware DSP/native plugins. And you can run Apogee hybrid plugins natively in your DAW while you mix – no hardware required.
