At the 2026 NAMM Show<\/a>, Apogee Electronics<\/strong> introduced Symphony Nova,<\/strong> a new desktop audio interface featuring four high-end analog microphone inputs, each with its own real-time DSP path, enabling latency-free processing during tracking.<\/p>\n In addition to input processing, Symphony Nova applies real-time DSP speaker correction on all analog outputs and supports importing SoundID files for headphone correction.<\/p>\n Unlike most compact interfaces, Symphony Nova provides simultaneous real-time DSP on all four microphone inputs. This allows multiple sources to be tracked with consistent processing\u2014ideal for drums, small ensembles, multi-speaker podcasts, or live instrument recording.<\/p>\n New 4-Band ECS Channel Strip and Onboard FX<\/strong><\/p>\n Each input channel includes Apogee\u2019s new and enhanced ECS Channel Strip, running directly on the onboard ARM processor. The channel strip features a new 4-band EQ, high-pass and low-pass filters, compressor, and saturation\/drive. Symphony Nova also includes onboard real-time reverb and delay processors.<\/p>\n All DSP processing is latency-free and handled entirely in hardware, enabling confident, zero-latency monitoring.<\/p>\n Speaker & Headphone Monitoring Correction<\/strong><\/p>\n Symphony Nova includes real-time speaker correction on every analog output, allowing users to compensate for room and speaker response directly in the interface rather than in the DAW.<\/p>\n Conversion & Preamps<\/strong><\/p>\n Symphony Nova uses Apogee\u2019s renowned AD\/DA conversion and microphone preamp design, delivering clean gain, low noise, and consistent performance across all inputs.<\/p>\n Guitar, Instrument & Voice Workflows<\/strong><\/p>\n The interface supports modern guitar workflows, including clean DI capture and a new re-amping section derived from previous Ensemble generations. For voice and podcasting, high-gain preamps combined with onboard processing enable controlled, broadcast-ready tracking without external processors.<\/p>\n Expandability via ADAT<\/strong><\/p>\n An onboard ADAT expansion allows connection of additional mic preamps and converters for larger recording sessions.<\/p>\n MIDI In\/Out<\/strong><\/p>\n Dedicated MIDI input and output allow direct connection to keyboards, synthesizers, and other MIDI devices.<\/p>\n Pricing & Availability:<\/strong><\/p>\n The\u00a0Symphony Nova<\/strong> will be offered at an MSRP of $1,499 USD and is expected to be available<\/a> in early Q2 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.synthtopia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Apogee-Symphony-NOVA-320x180.png\")
