Apogee sound quality, Pro Tools production power

At Sweetwater, we know that modern productions often involve tracking in a variety of locations. With the Avid Pro Tools | Duet designed by Apogee, you get the world-class sound of Apogee’s mic preamps and converters in a conveniently portable package. You’ll have studio-quality sound even if you’re recording overdubs in a hotel room, or capturing new song ideas on the road. And because it includes a one-year subscription for Pro Tools DAW software, with over 75 AAX virtual processors and instruments, you’ve got a complete solution for creation, mixing, and mastering with the Avid Pro Tools | Duet.

Class-leading converters from Apogee

The AD/DA converters in the Pro Tools | Duet interface are the result of Apogee’s no-compromise design philosophy, serving up exceptional recording and monitoring quality. On top of state-of-the-art converter technology, Apogee’s attention to detail extends to the analog signal path around the converters, too. You’ll be rewarded with transparent, detailed recordings, exceptional stereo imaging and depth of field, and superior results when stacking tracks in your mix. In short, Pro Tools | Duet sets a new standard for sonic excellence never before seen in an interface in this class.

Capture your sound in lifelike, transparent detail

The Pro Tools | Duet boasts two microphone preamplifiers which provide you seamless gradation throughout their incredible 75dB gain range. This lets you dial in your ideal level with the main controller knob (or from within the Pro Tools IO Control software), while enjoying amazingly low noise and stunning, lustrous detail. Low noise and generous gain mean these preamps are optimized for use with any dynamic, condenser, and ribbon mics, letting you capture audio without any sonic compromise.

Designed for Mac and PC

The Pro Tools | Duet is the first fully-integrated PC solution that combines Apogee hardware with the production power of Pro Tools DAW software. And the Pro Tools | Duet interface isn’t just for Pro Tools production – you can use it with virtually any media production software you like, from video editing to composition and arranging. You’ll enjoy the same high-quality sound at every step of your production, whether you’re working within Pro Tools DAW software or not.

Vibrant OLED display gives you visual feedback and control

The Pro Tools | Duet boasts a full-color OLED display that gives you visual feedback for a number of functions, including metering, input/output value levels, muting, phantom power, and more. All of this information is also available in the convenient and well-designed Pro Tools IO Control software. Beyond that, Pro Tools | Duet features two configurable touch pads, located on either side of its main encoder knob. Use them to quickly access output functions such as mute outputs, toggle headphone source, dim outputs, and more.
