The Apogee Boom is a compact audio interface that features high-quality digital signal processors (DSP). It is designed with a rugged steel shell for protection and rubber pads on the bottom to ensure stability. The front of the Boom includes a 1/4 inch jack and an XLR input, while the back has balanced left and right outputs and a headphone output. It is also bus powered, eliminating the need for an external power supply.
The Boom’s hardware DSPs effectively map analog sound and replicate it clearly to speakers or software while retaining the analog warmth. It comes with the onboard Symphony ECS Channel Strip plugin, which allows users to EQ, compress, and saturate their audio. Additionally, it includes Ableton Live Lite, Apogee Controller 2, and the Apogee Soft Limiter Plug-in. The Apogee Boom is an affordable, compact, and portable audio interface that is ideal for musicians and digital creators looking to record.
The compact BOOM 2×2 USB Audio Interface condenses Apogee’s advanced technology into a portable and easy-to-use device.

It provides analog-to-digital conversion expected from top-of-the-range Apogee devices.
On the front panel, there are two inputs: one XLR and one 1/4 inch jack, allowing users to utilize both simultaneously for instruments and microphones. On the back, there are three 1/4 inch jack outputs, with one acting as a headphone output and the others as left and right outputs to studio monitors. The USB connection port is located next to the headphone jack for easy accessibility. The Boom Interface is powered by USB bus power, eliminating the need for an external power supply and enhancing convenience and portability.
