Apogees New Entry-Level Interface: Boom

With Apogee BOOM, you can record, monitor, and mix through class-leading mic preamps and pristine digital conversion, fine-tune your input sources using BOOM’s built-in hardware DSP FX, and take your studio anywhere your story takes you. All you have to do is connect directly to your Mac, iPad Pro, or Windows laptop, and let your ideas flow.

Onboard DSP FX with ECS Channel Strip
Sculpt your voice, vocals and instruments while you record with Symphony ECS Channel Strip, tuned by legendary mixer Bob Clearmountain. Add the warmth and grit of analog gear with 3-band EQ, compression, and Drive.

Powerful mic preamp and pristine conversion
No other product in its category outperforms BOOM when it comes to sound quality. BOOM’s preamp can power the most demanding mics like the Shure SM7B with up to 62dB of clean, noiseless gain. Capture that signal with Apogee’s legendary analog to digital conversion for pristine, professional recordings that will make your tracks stand out. 

Master your mix with crystal clear sound quality
BOOM’s studio-grade headphone amp and DAC will power anything from in-ear monitors to high impedance headphones, thanks to it’s zero-ohm headphone output. The result? Your headphones benefit from more clarity, dynamics, and perfectly balanced frequency response.

Bring multiple audio sources together
Create the perfect live streaming production for Twitch, YouTube, or Instagram with Loopback mode. Using the Apogee Control mixer, you can blend and tune your analog inputs with audio from video games, Spotify playlists, your DAW, chat notifications, and more – all at the same time.
