Apogee Mobile Gets Battery Power |
Apogee analog-to-digital audio converters have been a favorite among pros for over a decade, but the company has also been offering highend portable gear for mobile recording. The latest is the Apogee Ensemble Mobile, a battery powered version of the Ensemble, designed for use with Apple Computers. The Ensemble Mobile connects via firewire and boasts up to 32 channels of audio, with eight channels of 24-bit 192kHz AD/DA conversion, four digitally controlled microphone preamps, four Hi-Z instrument inputs capable of handling high level instruments, a pair of individual headphone outputs, eight channels of ADAT I/O, Apogee's "Soft Limit" input and "UV22HR" dithering, and more. It works with all Core Audio applications-but not with Windows. The Ensemble Mobile will run for about four hours from a 7AH battery or can work with the included power adapter. Apogee.com
