Apogee Element 46
This is an awesome and reasonably priced software controlled thunderbolt audio interface. For those who love the legendary apogee conversion sound in a reasonably priced interface, the Elements series could be a good choice for you. There are three option from the Element series. Depending according to your channel requirement you can go for the Element 24, Element 48, or Element 88.
It comes with world class Apogee mic preamps (with selectable phantom power) and can record up to 24-bit/192 khz AD/DA conversion. The Element interfaces, with the exception of microphone connections, are handled through software (and a remote control if so desired), and therefore the housing is surprisingly plain.
