Apollo Twin MkII delivers next-generation sound quality with Unison
Technology, Realtime UAD Processing, UAD-2 QUAD processing, talkback
functionality and improved monitoring functions to
Mac and Windows users over
Thunderbolt
Universal Audio, a leading
manufacturer of professional audio recording hardware and software, is proud to
announce the Apollo Twin MkII — a ground-up redesign of the world’s most
popular professional desktop recording interface for Mac and Windows — is now
available.
Featuring onboard Realtime UAD-2 SOLO, DUO, or
all new QUAD Core processing, this 2×6 Thunderbolt audio interface improves
upon the original Apollo Twin’s gold-standard audio quality with completely
redesigned A/D and D/A next-generation conversion — offering increased dynamic
range and ultra-low THD.
Apollo Twin MkII also features Unison™
technology, which allows its dual mic preamps and front-panel DI to sound and
behave like the world’s most sought-after tube and solid state preamps, guitar
amps, and stompboxes — including their all-important impedance, gain stage
“sweet spots,” and circuit behaviors.
Based on breakthrough integration between
Apollo’s digitally controlled analog inputs and its onboard UAD processing,
Unison lets Apollo Twin MkII owners track through a range of colorful preamp
emulations from Neve,® API,® Fender,® and more
with amazing accuracy.*
Apollo Twin MkII also offers improved monitor functionality
versus the original Apollo Twin — with Mute, DIM, Mono, and ALT speaker
switching. It also includes monitor remote controls and a built-in talkback mic
for easy communication with talent, or for recording slate cues. These
features, combined with Apollo Twin MkII’s scalability, make it the new
standard for professional desktop recording.
Apollo Twin MkII comes with Universal
Audio’s “Realtime Analog Classics” UAD plug-in bundle, featuring
legacy editions of the LA-2A Classic Audio Leveler, 1176LN Limiting Amplifier,
and Pultec EQP-1A Program Equalizer, as well as the 610-B Tube Preamp & EQ
plug-in, and Softube Amp Room Essentials.
Apollo Twin MkII is now shipping with an estimated street price of £590 (SOLO), £760 (DUO), and £1,100 (QUAD).
