FEATURED REVIEWS

Unbelievable price for the quality!!

By KEN T.

I purchased this interface from Adorama about a month ago and wanted to test it out before I left a real review. I have to say this was the best purchase for my money thus far. Outstanding condition and I?m more than satisfied with my purchase!!!

The Universal Audio Apollo Twin Interface with Realtime UAD DUO Processing allows you to record with near-zero latency through the full range of UAD Powered Plug-Ins, ingeniously merging classic analog tones with cutting-edge features.

Record and Mix with Stunning 24 bit/192 kHz Sound Quality
With the highest dynamic range and lowest noise of any desktop interface, Apollo Twin gives you stellar 24-bit/192 kHz sound and breathtaking clarity. Its premium mic preamps, input stage and audio conversion are identical to the famed Apollo series, translating into rich three-dimensional recordings with exceptional depth and punch. Digitally controlled analog monitor outputs provide full resolution audio (without digital scaling) at all listening levels letting you create better mixes in real-world environments.

Track Through Classic Mic Preamps Using Unison Technology
Unison technology allows Apollo Twin'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, with more emulations coming soon.

High-speed Thunderbolt Connection to your Mac
Apollo Twin's Thunderbolt connection features ultra-fast PCIe audio drivers for high-bandwidth, low-latency performance on all Thunderbolt-equipped Macs. Because Thunderbolt offers 12x the bandwidth of FireWire 800, you can connect numerous devices in line with Apollo Twin including hard drives and HDMI/USB3 hubs all with fast, flawless performance.

Professional I/O Connections
Apollo Twin is a 2-in/6-out interface with two class-leading mic/line preamps, two analog line outputs, two digitally controlled analog monitor outputs and up to eight additional channels of digital inputs via Optical connection. Its conveniently located Hi-Z instrument input and headphone jack allow you to capture inspiration the moment it strikes.

Console Application and Console Recall Plug-In
The Console application is Apollo Twin'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. Complete Apollo Twin Console setups can be saved as presets or even saved within your sessions using the Console Recall plug-in (VST/AU/RTAS/AAX 64). This enables hardware recall of all Apollo Twin settings, even months and years after you last opened your session.

Easy to Use with Any Mac DAW
Apollo Twin is compatible with all major Mac DAWs, including Pro Tools, Logic, GarageBand, Cubase, Live and more allowing seamless integration no matter what recording software you use.
