Hear Every Detail

At the heart of Symphony Studio 8x8 is the same renowned AD/DA conversion technology found in Apogee's flagship Symphony I/O Mk II systems. With exceptional clarity, depth and dynamic range, every performance, mix decision and sonic detail is reproduced with stunning accuracy.

Capture every nuance of your recordings and make critical mixing decisions with confidence, knowing you're hearing your music exactly as it was intended.

Transparent Preamps with Up to 75dB of Gain

From delicate acoustic performances to low-output dynamic microphones, Symphony Studio's ultra-clean microphone preamps provide up to 75dB of gain with exceptional headroom and low noise. Designed to preserve the integrity of your source, they deliver natural, transparent recordings that serve as the perfect foundation for any production.

Powerful DSP Processing

Shape your sound while recording with the Symphony Studio Channel Strip. Featuring near-zero latency processing, the built-in DSP allows you to apply EQ, compression and drive during tracking, helping artists perform with confidence while reducing the need for corrective processing later.

Capture polished, professional recordings from the moment you hit record.

Advanced Monitor Control

Symphony Studio 8x8 is more than an audio interface, it's the control centre of your studio.

Manage speaker systems, headphone feeds and monitoring workflows directly from the hardware or Apogee Control 2 software. Instantly switch between monitoring configurations and optimise your listening environment without relying on additional hardware.

Precision Bass Management

Achieve a seamless relationship between your monitors and subwoofers with comprehensive bass management controls. Adjustable crossover frequencies, filter slopes and subwoofer routing allow you to fine-tune low-frequency performance for a more balanced and accurate monitoring experience.

Room Correction & Speaker Calibration

Every room influences what you hear. Symphony Studio's built-in output DSP provides detailed room correction tools, including per-speaker EQ, level trim and delay adjustment. Compensate for room acoustics, speaker placement and listening position to create a monitoring environment you can trust.

Custom Monitor Workflows

Store and instantly recall up to eight custom Monitor Workflows tailored to your studio. Create dedicated presets for stereo mixing, tracking sessions, multiple speaker sets, surround monitoring or immersive audio configurations.

Switch between workflows with a single click and keep your focus on creating.
