APOLLO TWIN X QUAD

Universal Audio — Thunderbolt Audio Interface

NEW QUAD CORE DSP

SPECS

▸2 Unison Mic Preamps

▸QUAD Core SHARC DSP (4 chips)

▸24-bit / 192kHz

▸Thunderbolt 3

▸10 × 6 I/O

▸Zero latency UAD monitoring

WHY IT'S HERE

Four SHARC chips run UAD plugins on the hardware itself — zero CPU hit, no latency. Unison preamps don't just model vintage hardware, they replicate the actual impedance and gain staging. Every session runs through this box. It's the core of the signal chain.
