Apogee has unveiled an exciting new product: the Symphony Nova. This innovative desktop audio interface is set to make waves in the music production community, featuring advanced capabilities that cater to the needs of musicians, DJs, and producers alike.
Revolutionary Features for Modern Creators
The Symphony Nova is engineered with four high-quality analog microphone inputs, each equipped with its own dedicated DSP path. This design allows for real-time, latency-free processing during recording sessions, a significant advantage over many compact interfaces on the market. Users can process all four inputs simultaneously, ensuring consistent sound quality across multiple sources without the need for host-based plugins.
Advanced DSP Capabilities
At the heart of the Symphony Nova is Apogee’s cutting-edge ECS Channel Strip, which operates directly on the onboard DSP. This channel strip features:
- A sophisticated four-band EQ
- High-pass and low-pass filters
- Compression and saturation options
In addition to these input processing tools, the Symphony Nova offers real-time reverb and delay effects, all managed within the hardware to ensure zero-latency monitoring. This feature is particularly beneficial for artists who require immediate feedback during recording sessions.
Enhanced Monitoring and Output Options
The Symphony Nova goes beyond input processing by incorporating real-time speaker correction for all analog outputs. This functionality is complemented by support for importing SoundID profiles, enabling headphone correction directly at the interface level. This means that monitoring adjustments can be handled seamlessly, without the need to navigate through a digital audio workstation (DAW).
Superior Audio Quality and Expandability
Utilizing Apogee’s latest advancements in AD/DA conversion and microphone preamp design, the Symphony Nova delivers exceptional low-noise performance and consistent gain across all channels. Additionally, an onboard ADAT input allows for easy expansion with extra microphone preamps or converters. For those looking to integrate MIDI hardware, dedicated MIDI In and Out connections provide a straightforward solution.
Pricing and Launch Information
The Symphony Nova is priced at an MSRP of $1,499 and is anticipated to start shipping in early Q2 2026 through authorized Apogee dealers globally. This new interface promises to be a game-changer for audio professionals seeking high-quality, versatile solutions for their recording needs.
