Getting Started with Apollo X | Gen 2
Description
The Apollo x6 Gen 2 16x22 Thunderbolt 3 audio interface, available in Essentials+ and Studio+ versions, from Universal Audio gives you an intuitive way to track and mix in your digital audio workstation. With two Unison mic preamps and HEXA Core DSP, you'll experience classic analog tones and access to UA's library of over 200 plug-ins. The Apollo x6 is ideal for home studios and project studios that need professional-quality sound without extra analog inputs.
Hear Pristine Audio Conversion
The Apollo x6 features enhanced 24-bit/192kHz audio conversion with an astonishing 130dB dynamic range for transparent recordings. When you monitor and playback through the Apollo x6, you'll hear your audio with stunning clarity and depth. There are no surprises when you listen on other systems—you can trust that what you hear is an accurate representation of your recordings.
Shape Your Tone With Classic Gear
The Apollo x6 provides analog processing power with its HEXA Core UAD-2 plug-in processing. You'll have access to compressors like the UA 1176 and Teletronix LA-2A, EQs from Pultec and Neve, guitar amps and more. With the Essentials+ or Studio+ plug-in bundles, you'll get highly coveted titles from Auto-Tune, Empirical Labs, Lexicon, Neve and others to craft studio-quality tone.
Find Inspiration With Vintage Keys and Synths
Along with the authentic analog gear, the Apollo x6 provides vintage keyboard and synthesizer plug-ins. Rediscover the iconic sounds of the Minimoog, ARP 2600, Mellotron and Wurlitzer. These detailed software emulations let you infuse your productions with retro flavor. Whether you need a shimmering pad, pulsing arpeggio or percussive clavinet part, the Apollo x6 has you covered.
Customize Your Workflow
The Apollo x6 integrates tightly with Universal Audio's Console application, giving you an intuitive way to customize your workflow. Quickly set up low-latency monitoring, save plug-in chains as channel strips, switch between monitor pairs and more. Console provides an easy way to organize multiple Apollo interfaces so you can continue expanding your studio setup.
