Full Color interactive OLED Display

Duet's OLED display provides full color visual feedback

and metering.

Multi-function Controller Knob

Duet’s multi-function controller knob allows you to easily

switch between Inputs and Outputs as well as adjust

their levels.

User Assignable Touchpads

Duet's two assignable touchpads can be assigned to

control many of Duet's settings and parameters. Use

them to setup advanced muting functions when

recording yourself or to toggle between outputs.

1/4” Stereo Headphone Output

Duet includes a 1/4” stereo headphone output that is

separate and independently controlled from the stereo

speaker line outputs.

MIDI

Duet provides a single USB MIDI connection for your

CoreMIDI compatible keyboard, synth, or DJ controller.

This eliminates the need for an external MIDI interface

and promotes an all-in-one music creation solution

where Duet and Maestro manage all audio and MIDI. On

iPad, Duet’s MIDI connection allows both Duet and a

keyboard or DJ controller to be connected at the same

time to the iPad’s single 30-pin dock port.

Analog In and Out

This port is for connecting Duet’s breakout cable. The

breakout cable includes 2 combination mic/instrument

connectors (XLR and 1/4” built into a single connector)

and 2 balanced 1/4” connectors for speakers. The

elegant single cable-to-junction design allows for easy

cable management and the locking connection to Duet

is robust and stylish.

DC Power

Duet is easily powered by any available USB port on

your Mac in most applications. However there may be

scenarios where connecting the external AC power

adaptor is preferred or required.

There are two factors contributing to increased

power consumption:

•Output volume into low impedance headphones

•Phantom power for condenser mics.

This will appear on the OLED if the external

power is necessary with Mac

If you have Duet set at a reasonable volume, you are

not drawing a signiﬁcant amount of power over the

USB bus and will be able to connect any microphones

that require phantom power. When you are using low

impedance headphones and your volume is very high,

you are drawing more power over the USB bus and

may need the AC adaptor to use power hungry

condenser mics.

When connected to iPad, iPod Touch, or iPhone, the

DC power supply for Duet MUST be used. Duet will

charge your iPad while you record so your work will

not be interrupted.

USB

Duet includes a single connection with two included

cables, providing connectivity to either a USB port on

your Mac or to a 30-pin connection on your iPad/iOS

device. Connection to iOS devices with Apple’s

Lightning connector requires Apple’s Lightning to 30-

pin adapter. Sold separately.
