  • One big downside is no midi I/O

  • @charanga1 - some years back i'd have maybe agreed, but nowadays there's so much choice for usb master keyboards & cheap usb MIDI interfaces. Yes it may seem an extra expense if you've previously invested in a traditional socketted MIDI master keyboard/controller, but a cheap usb MIDI interface is only a small price extra to pay to buy into the DUET prestine sound.

  • I have a new 27" imac i7 being deliverd any day now im looking to buy an interface and this seems great but Im going to need the midi keyboards to play the sounds from the logic pro and i dont see any midi inputs on the interface so how would that work, may be i have missed something here,

    and by the way great review and thanks

  • @kristofiyas - easy - get a usb midi keyboard

see all

  • "NICE SOLID CLICK, THESE SOCKETS ARE SNUG AND FIRM"

    this is my kinda shit

  • amazing detailed review, thanx alot, im getting a macbook pro i5, and the apogee will be amazing for my production with the macbook, u helped me make my mind on the apogee duet, the bad thing is that it doesn't have a midi in, and i have an m-audio midi controler i just need to check if it can be used as a usb midi, thanx alot buddy, best review iv ever watched ;)

  • what instrument cables do you recommend?

  • i have this interface but it wont let me use my akg c214 mic with it any suggestions?

  • @TheNewHipHop1 - nope

  • @TheNewHipHop1 - any mic - choose which suits the track/vocal - "Also, what else should be necessary other than the Duet/Mic/Laptop to record a great song?" - talent ;)

  • @dancetech I just noticed that they've announced a new Apogee Duet 2 USB! RE: MIDI What's the best choice of a USB midi adaptor to be worthy ;-) of working with the duet? M-Audio Uno, Behringer something? (I would not want MIDI induced timing issues to become a weak link in the studio)

  • @dancetech Agreed!  I'm not knocking the product, just pointing out something that they probably overlooked in their design. What's your take on the presonus firewire mobile?
