Meet the Apollo X Audio Interface Series
Universal Audio has just announced Apollo X, the latest version of the much-beloved Apollo audio interface that has taken the world by storm. The Apollo X line features four new rackmount interfaces, including the Apollo x6, Apollo x8, Apollo x8p and Apollo x16, that improve on the original Apollo with expanded processing power, better conversion, surround sound monitoring and much more.
Each Apollo X is a sleek rackmount unit with Thunderbolt 3 connectivity that features new HEXA Core Processing. Offering 50% more DSP than any of the previous Apollo interfaces, the new Apollo X line allows you to access the UAD plug-in library and run higher plug-in counts with near-zero latency.
When purchasing an Apollo X interface, you’ll instantly be able to use Universal Audio’s Realtime Analog Classics Plus Bundle featuring 16 classic plug-in emulations including the UA 610-B, 1176, LA-2A, Marshall Plexi and Ampeg SVT-VR.
