Mini DAC

Apogee's Mini-DAC, a professional quality, 24 bit, 192kHz D/A converter, is the ultimate portable and compact solution for studio playback, reference monitoring, and FireWire connectivity to your DAW, computer and premium home audio systems. It features Apogee's award winning audio quality and renowned dual stage "IntelliClock" in a rugged metal enclosure.

Professional, Portable, Affordable With the venerable DA-1000 in mind, Apogee set out to make a series of next-generation, compact, high quality converters that both audio professionals and home recording enthusiasts will not want to do without. And although Mini-DAC is built to go and priced to move (it is less expensive than any Apogee D/A ever), it delivers a feature rich D/A converter that is unrivaled in the pro studio world.

FireWire and Beyond with Digital Through Mode
These days, if you are doing digital, you need connectivity options. Through Mini-DAC´s ability to interface directly with your computer and virtually any DAW via FireWire, you get maximum flexibility for a myriad of input formats. And Apogee has taken advantage of this FireWire capability by expanding it to offer what we call digital-thru-mode. This provides the exciting option of interfacing non-FireWire digital devices with your computer. To use digital-thru-mode, set your Mini-DAC´s input selector to the FireWire option slot and connect any two-channel digital device like Apogee´s Mini-Me, Trak2, or Rosetta, and you have just FireWire enabled your favorite A/D converter and interfaced it with your computer/DAW. No other hardware required!
