A Desktop Reference in the Apollo Line
Designed for demanding creators, the Apollo Twin X stands as the premium desktop model in the range. It combines the musicality of Universal Audio converters and the "recording at the source" philosophy cherished by analog studios, all in a compact and robust chassis ready for the road or the main control room.
For Producers, Musicians, and Hybrid Creators
Beatmakers, guitarists, singers, podcasters, or mobile engineers will benefit from a fast workflow: ultra-low latency tracking via Console, the ability to "commit" Unison colors at the take, and expansion via ADAT to move from a minimalist setup to a 10x6 configuration without friction. Desktop ergonomics and the large central encoder speed up daily tasks.
Key Features and Innovations for a Modern Workflow
Unison Preamps and UAD Plug-ins
The two preamps adapt impedance, gain curve, and analog behavior of the emulated models to capture the attack of an API preamp, the warmth of a Neve, or the smoothness of a Manley right at recording. The UAD-2 Quad DSP lets you stack EQs, compressors, and legendary chambers while keeping your CPU free.
Precision Monitoring and Redesigned Console
With Apollo Monitor Correction powered by Sonarworks technology, your speakers and headphones deliver a more faithful room listening experience. New Console features - Auto-Gain, bass manager, plug-in scenes - ensure consistent levels, controlled low end, and instant chain recalls. Hardware controls for Mono, Mute, DIM, and ALT integrate into your studio's central control.

Questions frequently asked
Is the Apollo Twin X Quad Gen2 compatible with Mac and PC?
This interface is compatible with both Mac and PC environments. The conversion supports up to 24 bits / 192 kHz, with a dynamic range of 127 dB as specified.
Can a guitar or vocals be recorded using the Unison preamps?
The two Unison preamps adapt impedance, gain curve, and analog behavior according to the modeled units. Preamp tones from API, Neve, or Manley can be applied during tracking. Monitoring is performed at ultra-low latency via the Console software.
Apollo Twin X Quad Gen2 ADAT expansion: how many inputs and outputs does it provide?
With ADAT expansion, the setup can grow from a compact system to a 10x6 configuration. This option allows adding channels to a desktop setup.
Does the UAD-2 Quad DSP offload the computer's processor?
The UAD-2 Quad DSP enables the use of UAD EQs, compressors, and reverbs while preserving the computer's CPU resources.
What monitoring functions are available?
Apollo Monitor Correction, powered by Sonarworks technology, provides more accurate playback on speakers and headphones. Mono, Mute, DIM, and ALT controls are accessible from the interface, along with a bass manager and plugin scenes within Console.
