Apogee Electronics has announced that the Symphony 64 | ThunderBridge 64-channel interface for connecting Symphony I/O to any Thunderbolt-equipped Mac computer is now shipping worldwide.
It allows Symphony I/O to be paired with the speed and bandwidth of Intel’s ThunderBolt technology.
Symphony 64 | ThunderBridge connects Apogee’s flagship audio interface, Symphony I/O, to any Thunderbolt equipped Mac for true Thunderbolt compatibility and performance. It’s capable of up to 64 channels of input and output at sample rates up to 192 kHz
Symphony 64 | ThunderBridge includes two Thunderbolt ports for taking advantage of the Thunderbolt protocols ability to daisy-chain up to six Thunderbolt devices. This allows for devices such as hard drives and DisplayPort monitors to be connected in series with Symphony 64 | ThunderBridge to the Mac via a single Thunderbolt port.
Symphony 64 | ThunderBridge will also connect Apogee’s X-Symphony equipped AD-16X, DA-16X and Rosetta Series converters to Thunderbolt Macs for legacy compatibility. Existing users of these devices need to update to the most current software/firmware available on Apogee’s website before connecting to Symphony 64 | ThunderBridge.
