This portable USB-C 2-in\/4-out interface The audio system includes two high-end microphone preamps with +65dB gain, +48V phantom power and Apogee's acclaimed advanced step-gain architecture, along with a great-sounding headphone output. The real stumbling block, however, is the inclusion of the onboard hardware DSP, which enables zero-latency sound shaping directly at the input stage via the included ECS Channel Strip plug-in. You'll also appreciate the Duet 3's redesigned breakout cable, which offers streamlined connectors and a longer reach, as well as its convenient bus-powered design and attractive contoured body covered in scratch-resistant Gorilla Glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLegendary AD\/DA components and world-class analogues\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTo achieve professional-grade sound quality, your audio interface needs high-quality AD\/DA converters, rock-solid digital clocking, pristine-sounding analog circuitry, and carefully designed power management. Duet 3 succeeds across the board, allowing you to capture any source at maximum fidelity and monitor and mix with lifelike detail, depth and dimensionality. Apogee has been designing world-class digital and analog components for nearly 40 years, and the Duet 3 epitomizes its decades of innovation and expertise with best-in-class sound and performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMic preamps that can do it all\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eDrums, vocals, guitar, strings, brass — each source places unique demands on your mic preamp. You need a preamp that can do it all and capture every detail of every performance. The microphone preamps in Apogee Duet 3 are designed with the company's Advanced Stepped Gain Architecture, an analog circuit that dynamically optimizes over a 0 to 65 dB gain range to provide exceptional bandwidth with the lowest possible distortion — even when you increase the gain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHardware DSP delivers zero-latency sound shaping directly at the source\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eOne of our favorite features of the Duet 3 is its built-in DSP, which lets you shape your sound directly at the input stage with zero latency.
