Product Description

Perfect for live sound venues or networked recording studios, The Universal Audio Apollo x16D Essentials+ gives you elite-class Apollo X sound and realtime UAD plug-in processing over Thunderbolt and Dante. With Apollo x16D, you can mix and record live performances with UAD plug-ins from Neve, SSL, and Auto-Tune, plus classic LA-2A and 1176 compressors, and more.

  • Mix studio and live performances using award-winning UAD plug-ins in realtime over Dante
  • Use Plug-In Scenes to recall settings instantly, even in the middle of a performance
  • Turn any space with ethernet into a multi-room Apollo recording studio
  • Link up to four x16Ds for a 64-channel Dante system with network redundancy
  • Bring your best UAD plug-ins like Auto-Tune, Neve, and Lexicon from studio to stage

TAKE ELITE-CLASS APOLLO X SOUND ON STAGE

Universal Audio built Apollo x16D for both live sound engineers and networked recording studios. With its 16 channels of Dante I/O, elite-class audio conversion, and HEXA core DSP processing — the world’s most powerful system for running UAD plug-ins in realtime — Apollo x16D seamlessly connects to your digital mixing console, putting over 200 UAD plug-ins right at your fingertips.

WORK FAST AND NEVER LOSE YOUR SETTINGS

With its powerful digital mixing engine giving you control over inputs, outputs, and plug-in routing — Apollo x16D makes it easy to quickly build your mix and control entire effects chains in realtime. Then quickly recall your plug-in settings over MIDI, all without interrupting the performance.

HUNDREDS OF EFFECTS, ONE RACK SPACE

Apollo x16D comes in two editions, both delivering a generous suite of UAD plug-ins right out of the box. Build your mix with classic Teletronix LA-2A and 1176 compressors, Pultec EQs, and Neve channel strips to modern favorites from Auto-Tune, Avalon, and more.

EXPAND YOUR STUDIO OVER DANTE

Link up to four x16Ds to build a 64-channel Dante system with network redundancy. Or expand your current Thunderbolt Apollo studio over Dante — the most low-latency and scalable audio network available. This means that if you’ve been considering making the switch to a networked recording studio, or you simply want to grow to a multi-room setup, you don’t have to start from scratch.

MIX DOWN TO SURROUND

After the show, bring Apollo x16D back to the studio, where it becomes your all‑in‑one monitoring hub for mixing formats up to 9.1.6. This allows you to easily create 16‑channel immersive audio mixes of live sets or studio recordings for Dolby Atmos, Auro‑3D, Sony 360 Reality Audio, and others.
