Introducing Ensemble Mobile:
Take 8 channels of Apogee Anywhere.
Introducing Ensemble Mobile, a DC powered version of Apogee’s popular Ensemble Firewire audio interface. Ensemble Mobile is excellent for capturing studio-perfect recordings away from an AC power source and is designed for the Location Sound and Remote Recording markets where there is no "plug in the wall".
Ensemble gives you all of the tools you need in one elegant, easy-to-use interface. It is “Made for Mac” and can be used with any of your favorite Mac Core Audio applications, such as Metacorder, ADR Studio, Final Cut Studio and many more.

Battery Powered Pro Recording
Power is supplied with an industry standard XLR-4 connector, while still giving you the option of plugging in with the included external AC to DC power adaptor with a standard IEC input.
Ensemble Mobile is as flexible as you are and will work with any DC power source with voltage between 11 and 16 volts. The power requirement is 20 Watts maximum or 1.7 Amps at 12 Volts, giving Ensemble Mobile an average of four hours of run time from a 7AH battery.
Stand-Alone Mode:
Ensemble will now operate without a FireWire connection to a Macintosh*.
Ensemble's Stand-Alone Mode offers professionals the option to use their Ensemble as a high-end converter and mic pre, independent of the computer.
Using Maestro and a Mac, configure your low latency and routing settings only once, Ensemble remembers the settings, even when disconnected from the computer and allows access to all front panel settings, such as mic pre gain and output levels, which are fully functional while in Stand-Alone Mode.
Ensemble’s Stand-Alone Mode at a Glance:
Maestro mixer and routing settings, now located in Ensemble’s non-volatile memory, enable storage of settings in Ensemble.
Allows the use of Ensemble as a converter from analog to optical, coax and optical, or coax to analog, as well as other possible configurations.
Changes to routing or settings in Maestro still require connectivity to a Macintosh computer.
*Simple firmware update required.
