MFR# APLS

Product Description

The Universal Audio Apollo Solo is the smallest interface in the storied Apollo family. This Thunderbolt-based audio interface comes packed with great features in a streamlined package, including two brilliant Unison-enabled microphone preamps, fantastic A/D and D/A conversion, powerful on-board processing and a bundle of UAD plug-ins.

Universal Audio’s Unison Microphone Preamps

The Apollo Solo comes standard with two Universal Audio Unison enabled mic preamps, allowing you to track with pristine sounding clarity and replicate the sounds of classic preamp sounds with UAD plug-ins. Track with the legendary sounds of Neve, API, Manley, and more with the click of a button and the Apollo Solo adjusts the impedance of the preamp to match the emulated hardware. A convenient Hi-Z input on the front panel allows you to go direct in seconds, and one knob control formatting allows you to dial in your gain with ease.

World-Class UAD Processing

Track and mix with classics like the 1176LN, LA-2A, Pultec EQs in real time! With onboard DSP, the Apollo Solo allows you to take advantage of the detailed, rich sounds of UAD plug-ins with near-zero latency. The Realtime Analog Classics bundle will get you to work in no time, featuring other legendary gear like the 610 preamp, the Ampeg SVT-VR, and the Marshall Plexi guitar amp emulation.

Instant Access To Universal Audio’s LUNA Recording System

While Apollo Solo works with all major DAWs, Apollo Thunderbolt interface owners can take advantage of Universal Audio’s new music production system, LUNA. This free recording application for Mac allows users to track and mix via an incredibly intuitive workflow with unlimited tracks, integrated multitrack tape machines, and unique virtual instruments.

Ready To Record And Mix Anywhere With Universal Audio Apollo Solo

The Universal Audio Apollo Solo is a bus-powered interface, which means anywhere you take your laptop can act as your studio space. This interface also features a premium headphone amplifier for monitoring and is housed in heavy-duty metal casing that is road-ready.

I would like to thank VK for the wonderful sales assistance, service and prices. This was my first purchase with you and it won't be my last. I only wish I'd discovered you years ago!

I had two Grammy wins this year - Ray LaMontagne & Carolina Chocolate Drops. Both made with help from Vintage King!

In almost 20 years in Pro audio buying, never did I receive a unit so well packed and exactly as described. Works flawlessly. The whole process has been so smooth. I will never hesitate to do business with you guys in the future and will recommend you to everyone I know.

This was my first experience buying something from Vintage King (although I surf the "used" categories on the website frequently!), and, despite being on the other side of the world, I had absolutely no trouble and everything went very smoothly.

My experience with Vintage King was excellent. The order was here fast considering it was out of stock. The sales person had SKB send it to me directly and I couldn't have been more pleased.
Michael D.
From the minute I placed my order I was kept well-informed through each step in your process. Even though I was buying a comparatively modest piece of gear, your attention to detail made me feel like I was purchasing a six-figure mixing desk.
