Apogee Electronics introduced a new member of their ONE audio interface family, ONE for Mac. ONE for Mac is an affordable 2 In x 2 Out USB audio interface/microphone solution for musicians and podcasters writing, recording and mixing music on a Mac computer. The third generation in the Apogee ONE family, ONE for Mac features the same sound quality and essential functionality as the Apogee ONE for iPad & Mac.
Now streamlined for Mac-only use, (it does not include iOS cable, power supply or battery operation), ONE for Mac is available at the more accessible price point of $249 USD - with an optional iOS connectivity kit sold separately. Whether for beginners or professionals, with its built-in microphone, instrument and mic input and high quality output, the ONE is a straightforward solution as the all-in-one tool for making professional recordings in the studio or anywhere.
The audio interface with built-in microphone includes a USB 2.0 connection for Mac with 24-bit/96kHz AD/DA conversion. Apart from the built-in omnidirectional condenser microphone it features an XLR microphone and 1/4” instrument connector on breakout cable and 2 simultaneous inputs (instrument + built-in or external mic). The built-in mic preamp allows up to 62dB of gain. The second analog output can be used with headphones or powered speakers for direct monitoring, with complete input/output control viaApogee’s Maestro software.
Apogee ONE was designed as a music creation Swiss Army knife on a die cast aluminum chassis. Users only have to connect a microphone, guitar or use the built-in omnidirectional microphone to easily capture music without compromise. The original concept even lets users record with a microphone (built-in or external) and guitar simultaneously. Using Apogee’s AD/DA conversion and mic preamp technology, the ONE microphone/interface produces good results with music, podcasts, and voice-over recordings while also delivering studio quality sound to the user headphones for precision mixing or hi-fi listening. With an intuitive controller knob and seamless compatibility with Mac OS X, ONE is easy for anyone to use and works great with GarageBand, Logic Pro X, Pro Tools, Ableton or any Core Audio compatible application.
