New Universal Audio Apollo QUAD Audio Interface Added to Studio Gear List
The UA Apollo. High-Resolution Music Production
with Classic Analog Sound.
With its class-leading resolution and Realtime UAD Processing, Apollo sets a new standard for music production, mixing, and mastering. The Apollo interface has the ability to record near-zero latency. While Apollo’s “natural” sound is exceedingly open and transparent, it can quickly deliver a wide range of classic analog tones and color via its Realtime UAD Processing. Apollo’s onboard DSP Acceleration allows for recording through UAD Powered Plug-Ins — with as low as sub-2ms latency — allowing the ability to quickly monitor, audition, and “print” audio using classic analog emulations from Ampex, Lexicon, Manley, Neve, Roland, SSL, Studer, and more. Better still, Apollo's Realtime UAD Processing is also available during mixing and mastering.
Unison technology allows the Apollo’s mic preamps to sound and behave like the world's most sought-after tube and solid state preamps — including their all-important impedance, gain stage “sweet spots,” and circuit behaviors. Based on breakthrough integration between Apollo’s digitally controlled analog mic preamps and its onboard UAD processing, Unison lets you track through colorful preamp emulations like the bundled UA 610-B Tube Preamp plug-in.
The Console application is Apollo’s software control interface. Its intuitive, analog console-style design provides “realtime” tracking and monitoring with UAD Powered Plug-Ins — a feature not found in any other interface.
