Overview

Pristine conversion and authentic analog tone for inspired music production.

The Universal Audio Apollo Twin X DUO Gen 2 10x6 Thunderbolt 3 audio interface, available here in either Essentials+ or Studio+ versions (see the differences in included plug-ins in the Features section below), brings studio-quality sound to your desktop. Trusted by professional musicians and producers for decades, Universal Audio's Apollo Twin X provides pristine 24-bit/192kHz audio conversion and real-time UAD plug-in processing. With dual Unison mic preamps and a Hi-Z instrument input, record guitars and vocals through emulations of Neve, API and other classic preamps. Then, mix using authentic emulations of the LA-2A compressor, 1176 limiter, Pultec EQs and more than 200 other UAD plug-ins.

Pristine Sound Quality for Critical Listening

Apollo Twin X features Universal Audio's highest-resolution digital-to-analog converters for playback, giving you a crystal-clear picture of your recordings. Calibrate your monitors or headphones using the built-in monitor controller with Sonarworks correction to ensure consistent sound in any environment. With 129dB of dynamic range, you'll hear every subtle detail in your mixes and masters.

Classic Analog Tone in Real Time

Apollo Twin X's DUO DSP allows you to record and mix with UAD plug-ins in real time, including vintage emulations from Neve, Helios, API and more. Shape vocals and instruments through the Helios Type 69 preamp, add punch with the Precision Channel Strip or warm up a track with the UA 610-A Preamp & EQ. Then, polish your mixes using authentic emulations of the LA-2A, 1176 and Fairchild compressors as well as the Pultec EQ.

A Hybrid System for Professional Workflows

Apollo Twin X combines onboard DUO DSP with processing power from your computer for a hybrid system that can handle complex sessions with many UAD plug-ins. Use the DUO DSP for tracking and mixing, then print your UAD plug-in processing to free up resources for native plug-ins. This powerhouse system provides an analog-style workflow with the versatility of a native setup.

Control Your Workflow From the UAD Console

The UAD Console app lets you control all aspects of Apollo Twin X, including inputs, outputs, monitor calibration and UAD plug-ins. Create and save plug-in presets, set up multiple monitor mixes, enable talkback for communicating with performers and use new features like Auto-Gain, Bass Management and Plug-In Scenes. Apollo Twin X and the UAD Console provide an intuitive, analog-style mixing environment in your DAW.
