Setup a versatile pro studio system, enhanced by the mixing benefits of a true Neve console, with this B&H Kit that bundles an Apogee Electronics Symphony I/O Mk II 16x16 Special Edition Thunderbolt Audio Interface with a 16x2 Rupert Neve Designs summing mixer and a DB25 cable for interconnect. This setup lets you inject your ITB mixes with classy analog Neve processing.
Apogee Electronics sets a new standard with the flagship Symphony I/O Mk II 16x16 Special Edition Thunderbolt, an audio interface that features the latest and greatest conversion technology from Apogee for ultralow latency, noise, and distortion. Loaded with the updated 16x16 SE AD/DA conversion card, this interface sports 16-channel analog DB-25 I/O, plus 2-channel S/PDIF I/O for high-resolution sampling from 44.1 to 192 kHz.
This unit features two Thunderbolt ports for simple integration with Thunderbolt-connected macOS host devices. Like all Apogee Symphony I/O Mk II units, the 16x16 SE is a modular interface, allowing you to expand as you go for a maximum of 32 analog inputs and outputs, as well as numerous other optional modules for different configurations that will suit any application. Control is easy via the bright front-panel touchscreen and the convenient Symphony I/O Monitor Workflow software. This unit includes an AC power cord to get you started.
A high-resolution TFT display delivers all the visual feedback critical for recording and monitoring. Without looking at your computer, Symphony I/O Mk II lets you see metering for up to 64 channels of I/O, 32 inputs and 32 outputs, as well as signal levels, polarity, muting, phantom power, and Soft Limit.
And with Symphony I/O Mk II Thunderbolt’s new Monitor Workflows, you can effortlessly configure and operate your monitoring system for Dolby Atmos, Sony 360 Reality Audio, and other immersive audio systems, with control of up to 32 speaker outputs.
This newly designed high-current low-impedance circuit is capable of driving virtually any input with absolutely no decrease in performance, regardless of the load presented by the connected gear. This becomes especially important when connecting vintage gear with difficult load impedances and elevated operating levels, sometimes over long cables—Symphony I/O Mk II maintains fidelity and punch through it all.
Give your mixes the analog weight, width, and depth they deserve with the Rupert Neve Designs 5057 Orbit, a 16x2 summing mixer that carries the classic and classy sound of Rupert Neve consoles within its comparatively compact 1 RU chassis. With the Orbit, you'll be closer to achieving a world-class analog sound out of an otherwise digital mix.
The 5057 Orbit comes packed with goodies from proven Rupert Neve pieces. The signal path makes use of the same transformer configuration found in the company's Shelford channels, providing the same Class-A sound at either operated or padded levels (exactingly attenuated at -6 dB, to suit any downstream processors). Additionally, the unit comes stocked with the renowned Silk circuit found the Portico II Master Bus Processor. This circuit allows you to enhance the high midrange, or beef up the lows, so your mix will never sound too dull or too thin. Use this summing mixer to handle 8 stereo pairs of submixes, or expand it with other renowned RND gear. The choice is yours.
Some analog summing mixers offer an ultraclean signal path, not far off from the in-the-box experience. The Orbit, however, extends the extraordinary richness, harmonic complexity, depth, and weight that Rupert Neve consoles bring to professional mixing engineers all over the world.
Unlike EQ, these Silk and texture controls saturate the output transformers, adding compound and musical harmonics to the source material in accordance with the amount of Texture applied. Drive the mix bus hard, choose your Silk flavor, and crank the Texture knob for a rich, saturated, vintage vibe; or, disengage Silk entirely for clear, wide-open sonic beauty. The choice is yours.
