Overview

USB Desktop interface with Realtime UAD-2 DUO Processing for Windows Only.

Apollo Twin USB Heritage Edition has all the benefits of the acclaimed Apollo Twin USB, including impeccable 24-bit/192kHz audio conversion, DUO Core realtime UAD plug-in processing, and Unison preamp technology. And it goes a step further, with a software suite of five award-winning UAD plug-in titles, featuring Collections from Teletronix, Pultec and UA.

Special Edition Featuring Iconic UAD Analog Collections Onboard
A hallmark feature of Apollo is its Realtime UAD Processing, letting you run the full library of UAD plug-ins at near-zero latency. Taking you a step further, Apollo Twin USB Heritage Edition gives you 5 premium plug-in titles worth over $1,300—including the full suite of UA's Teletronix and 1176 compressors, all Pultec EQs, UA 610 Unison mic preamps and Pure Plate Reverb.

These premium Heritage Edition titles are in addition to Apollo Twin USB's included "Realtime Analog Classics" bundle, giving you the most accurate library of classic analog emulations included with any professional audio interface.

Two Unison Preamps: Get the Sound of Neve, Helios, API, Avalon & More
Apollo Twin USB Heritage Edition features two Unison-enabled mic preamps, letting you track through exacting mic preamp emulations from Neve, API, Manley, SSL, Avalon, Helios and Universal Audio.* A Universal Audio exclusive, Unison is a proprietary hardware-software integration that nails the tone of these sought-after tube and solid-state mic pres—including their input impedance, gain stage “sweet spots,” and component-level circuit behaviors.

Unison technology is also found on Apollo Twin USB's front-panel Hi-Z instrument input, providing dead-on impedance and gain matching for guitar and bass amp models from Fender, Marshall, Ampeg and more.

Additional Connections
With its two Unison-equipped preamps, two analog line outs, and optical ADAT/SPDIF input—plus two digitally controlled analog monitor outputs—the 10 x 6 Apollo Twin USB Heritage Edition gives you the I/O you need for professional tracks and mixes.

*Apollo Twin USB Heritage Edition includes 5 premium UAD plug-in titles, plus the “Realtime Analog Classics” UAD plug-in bundle. Other UAD plug-ins sold separately.
**Apollo Twin USB is not compatible with LUNA Recording System.

Get Legendary UA Sound Natively With UAD Spark
Apollo Heritage Editions include plug-ins featured in UAD Spark, UA’s subscription plug-in collection that runs natively on Mac, with no UA hardware required. With UAD Spark, you can expand your plug-in processing power, balancing your DSP load between Apollo and your computer’s onboard processing.
