The Apollo Twin X’s powerful onboard plug-in processing provides you with award-winning emulations of tried-and-true studio classics that you can track through in real-time using UA’s vaunted Unison preamp technology. Of course, you can also combine Apollo Twin X’s onboard DSP with your host computer’s native processing to create a powerhouse hybrid workflow. Meanwhile, you’ll be able to mix confidently in any room or through headphones using Apollo Monitor Correction (an optional add-on); plus, Bass Management optimizes your subwoofer for maximum low-frequency detail. You’ll never miss a take again, courtesy of Apollo Twin X’s Auto-Gain feature, which sets your levels across multiple inputs. Full-featured monitor control with speaker switching and integrated talkback are also in play. Furthermore, the updated UAD Console app enables you to quickly set up low-latency cues, plug-in scenes, and immersive audio monitoring, in addition to lock-tight LUNA integration. You also get near-zero latency and ample expandability, thanks to Apollo Twin X’s ultra-fast Thunderbolt 3 connectivity. On the fence regarding a performance upgrade? Now is the time to make the jump — Universal Audio’s Apollo is truly better than ever!\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePowerful hybrid workflow\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApollo Twin X’s onboard plug-in processing enables you to track in real-time with Neve, Manley, or API channel strips or run high UAD plug-in counts while mixing in your DAW with zero strain on your host computer. Once you’re able to inject guitars with the tube warmth of a Pultec EQ, add the musical limiting of an LA-2A to a vocal, and pump up drums with an 1176 or Fairchild 670, you’ll wonder how you got along without UA’s industry-leading DSP-accelerated plug-ins. What’s more, since you can also run your UAD plug-ins natively, you’ll be able to combine Apollo Twin X’s integrated processing with your host computer’s native processing to create a robust hybrid workflow capable of tackling even larger sessions with even more complex plug-in chains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLeading-edge Unison preamps\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApollo Twin X’s Unison preamp technology enables you to track in real-time through faithful emulations of classic gear from Neve, Manley, API, and dozens more, giving you the same rich analog textures used on the greatest recordings of all time. Unison goes far beyond traditional software modeling, however, in that it adjusts the preamp circuit itself, including parameters such as impedance, analog gain structure, and much more. When you adjust the Apollo Twin X’s preamp gain knob and physical controls, the plug-in adjusts the preamp’s behavior to match the target preamp. So you’re not simply filtering your audio to approximate the character of a famous preamp — your microphone is now interacting with Apollo Twin X’s input the same way it would behave with the modeled preamplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eElite-class AD\/DA with enhanced monitoring\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen they were designing the second-generation Apollo X interfaces, UA’s engineers set out to craft the highest-quality elite-class 24-bit\/192kHz AD\/DA conversion of any Apollo yet. After giving Apollo Twin X a serious listen here, we firmly believe that they succeeded; its ultra-pristine signal path is audibly apparent, and even on paper, its 129dB DNR and -120dB THD+N specs speak for themselves. Moreover, Apollo Twin X includes an optional add-on for Apollo Monitor Correction, which allows you to apply Sonarworks SoundID Reference profiles to UA’s precision EQ filters running in real-time on Apollo’s onboard DSP. Whether you listen on your studio monitors or through a high-end set of headphones, you’ll hear every detail of your mix with the utmost accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAssistive Auto-Gain and seamless sub management\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecording with Apollo Twin X is easier than ever, thanks to its assistive Auto-Gain feature, which can be applied to multiple channels simultaneously to ensure proper levels all across the board. Best of all, you can deploy Auto-Gain on all the interface’s inputs — microphone, line-level, and hi-Z alike — and even with select Unison preamp models! Whether you’re working in stereo or 9.1.6 Dolby Atmos, having a monitoring setup with well-tuned low-end is crucial to crafting mixes that translate. That’s where Apollo Twin X’s Bass Management feature comes in, leveraging a real-time DSP-driven Linkwitz-Riley crossover to integrate and optimize your subwoofer seamlessly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"desc\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"web-text-container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"web-text-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"web-text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"webtext-block webtext-switched webtext-block--media-right webtext-block--mixed-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"webtext__column webtext--text\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLock-tight LUNA integration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApollo Twin X boasts ultra-tight hardware\/software integration with Universal Audio’s free LUNA DAW software, enabling you to take control of your interface’s monitoring, talkback, and headphone systems, track and overdub with UAD DSP-accelerated plug-ins in real time, and benefit from full software-based control over Apollo’s Unison mic preamps, all without leaving your production software. LUNA also includes Accelerated Realtime Monitoring, which supplies fast analog-style tracking and overdubbing using Apollo’s onboard processing. You also get unlimited track counts, contextual editing and browsing, UAD and AU plug-in compatibility, a session auto-save function, and AAF importing. This software also supports LUNA extensions, which bake directly into LUNA’s mixer — no need to instantiate a bunch of plug-ins. LUNA is the closest you’ll come to an analog workflow in the software realm. It delivers spot-on analog sound, along with the creative immediacy of real-time processing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"webtext-block webtext-switched  webtext-block--text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSensational plug-in bundle included!\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUAD powered plug-ins have earned their reputation for being accurate emulations of analog audio equipment ever created.
