Available now, the Apollo Monitor Correction add-on from Sonarworks lets you get balanced, accurate mixes in your home studio - whether you're mixing on monitors or headphones.
The Universal Audio Apollo x16 Gen 2 is UAD's next-generation Thunderbolt 3 audio interface for Mac and PC. Packing 16x16 analog I/O, cutting-edge AD/DA converters, and HEXA Core DSP for real-time UAD plug-in processing, the Apollo x16 Gen 2 improves on its predecessor in nearly every aspect. With native support for immersive formats up to 9.1.6, Apollo Monitor Correction by Sonarworks, remote control through the updated UAD Console app, and easy scalability, the Apollo x16 Gen 2 adapts to any recording, mixing, or live setup imaginable. The Essentials+ Edition includes a suite of more than 20 UAD real-time effects and instruments so you can start creating right away.
With 16 balanced analog inputs and outputs on industry-standard DB-25 connectors, the Universal Audio Apollo x16 Gen 2 audio interface makes it easy to connect a variety of microphones, instruments, monitors, and hardware inserts in just one rack space. Switchable +24 dBu operation lets you optimize your gain staging to interface seamlessly with any vintage or modern outboard processors, and even large-format recording consoles.
The Universal Audio Apollo x16 Gen 2 features a HEXA Core processor dedicated to running UAD plug-ins with near-zero latency. Record through authentic emulations of classic Neve, API, and Manley channel strips, Pultec EQs, 1176 and LA-2A compressors, and more. Like all Universal Audio Apollo interfaces, the Apollo x16 Gen 2's powerful native DSP allows your computer to dedicate more resources to your DAW, effectively increasing the power of any system.
UA’s next-generation AD/DA converters set a new standard for clarity. Operating at 24-bit/192 kHz, the Universal Audio Apollo x16 Gen 2 audio interface achieves up to 133 dB dynamic range and –129 dB THD+N, ensuring an ultra-pristine signal path from input to output.
Right out of the box, the Universal Audio Apollo x16 Gen 2 audio interface supports immersive monitoring formats up to 9.1.6 for Dolby Atmos, Auro-3D, and Sony 360 Reality Audio. The analog monitor outs can be mapped directly to multiple speaker arrays, and the Console app provides calibration, metering, and layout tools so you can create immersive audio mixes that translate perfectly.
With the optional Apollo Monitor Correction add-on, you can apply Sonarworks SoundID Reference profiles directly on the interface’s DSP. Real-time EQ filters calibrate your studio monitors or headphones to a flat frequency response, eliminating room-induced coloration and listener fatigue. Easily create custom calibration curves using a compatible measurement microphone, then compare corrected and uncorrected signals on the fly.
New UAD Console features give you complete remote control over the Apollo x16 Gen 2’s routing, monitoring, gain, plug-in scenes, and more. Set up low-latency headphone mixes, switch speaker pairs, engage talkback, and recall stored configurations from any networked computer or tablet, all without touching the hardware. The streamlined interface lets you organize channels, adjust levels, and load plug-in chains in seconds, accelerating workflows in both tracking and mixing phases.
Like all Universal Audio Apollo audio interfaces, the Apollo x16 Gen 2 offers seamless integration with Universal Audio’s free LUNA DAW, providing accelerated realtime monitoring, unlimited track counts, and built-in UAD and AU plug-in compatibility. Hardware controls, talkback, and monitor functions live directly inside the LUNA mixer, delivering an analog-style workflow in software. Compatibility extends to Logic Pro, Pro Tools, Ableton Live, and other major DAWs via Core Audio and ASIO drivers, ensuring plug-and-play operation.
The Universal Audio Apollo ecosystem allows you to scale your setup as your studio grows and your needs change. Start with an Apollo x16 Gen 2 and link up to four more Thunderbolt Apollo interfaces for up to 128 channels of I/O to your DAW. Control it all via software or right from your desktop using an Apollo Twin or x4 audio interface as a controller.
