Never knew that explains why its $1000

The Console app is dope, but the Unison tech on the Preamp channels is what really sold me on Apollo. Modeling the analog behavior of the Unison plugins sold me to the point-of routing the Apollo's output through them.

[Burglecutter]

I got a Behringer, and I'm able to get it down 6 ms of latency. I just move the notes or use some kind of groove template.

[LOWALAMODE]

Console has so many routing benefits.. it’s literally like having a digital console on your laptop. If you can dream it you can pretty much do it. If you have the In/outs ;) or get wild with the virtual channels

[rodnee]

I never have a problem with latency in plugins. With hardware It's too short to notice.

[asmundma]

Which was thru for 10 years ago, no need anymore.

[relevancy]

The Apollo is good but at the same time I wouldn’t suggest it due to the only real benefit OVER other brands at this stage being that and just availability to UAD plugins which, if you’re not buying SPECIFICALLY FOR those plugins, you don’t REALLY need otherwise.

A good alternative would be the MOTU Ultralight Mk5, which I’ve been using for a half a year and PREFER to my Apollo Twin.

The silicon Macs just put uad on a run for their money. They are blazing fast

[Ibantar]

Absolutely love the Apollo! I have the 2nd generation 8P unit!!

[Khyrelunar]

Thanks for this my last session on a focus right overloaded every 5 seconds

[polymerizedrecords]

Love the UA stuff but I gotta say conversion and pré quality is far from the best in the price range. Go get a RME.

[DjXCENTRiC]

My antelope audio discrete 8 pro synergy core interface does the same thing super cool!

[vikewave]

"You never have to reducer buffer size"??What if you are recording VSTi?

[NOLASkaGuitarist]

Was considering this interface, but decided to go with the Neumann MT48

[dwayn-entz]

Lately I have seen a lot of negative comments about uad Apollo. I think in some cases it’s a win, when you buy the interface “Mac user “ it comes with a fully functional recording system/ DAW and a few plugins that most of us would be buying either way… compressors and preamps, reverbs, Antares auto, depends if they are doing a promotion etc

If you don’t own a DAW yet it’s a win. And I have tried Luna it’s good. Getting the twin is a good decision, if you need more mic pres then I would say look somewhere else.

I must say it Feels good to punch in some vocals anytime within a session without the latency issues…

[brokenpadgaming]

It takes the load of uad plug ins only if I remember right.
Just for those thinking it helps in any case.
Nope, it helps if you purchase their products

[FuranGameplays]

I’ve seen a lot of professionals using RME, Antelope and Prism. Those UAD Apollo are the expensive version of the focusrite Scarlett lmao

[rdGen-Media]

Latency free is not a thing. The audio still has to go through conversion even if you are using the feature that maps an input channel directly to its corresponding integer output channel through firmware rather than driver. Any other routing using UAD console also sends the audio through the driver. This just means it doesn’t incur the additional latency from roundtripping the audio through a client app that subscribes to receive audio from said interface driver such as a DAW

Both the audio samples that come into the driver and get routed to the DAW incur the device’s minimum input latency. When you are monitoring the audio samples from the driver before those samples get routed to DAW you are shaving off the additional output latency that comes from routing audio through a client app and back to the driver for processing

[ivanromero]

Question. For having an Apollo I don’t think I’ve watched you using LUNA is there a specific reason to not use it?

[logkanobi]

i had an apollo for like 2 months with the m1 macbook and that shit only let me open 1 plug-in at a time🤨🤨🤨🤨 had to sell it
