  • Completely transformed my desktop audio setup
Size: Solo Style: USB
I bought the Apollo Solo USB for my Windows PC setup, and honestly, this thing is incredible. I’m using it with Yamaha HS5 studio monitors, Sennheiser headphones, a Shure XLR dynamic mic, and Mogami TRS-to-XLR cables from the Apollo to the speakers. The difference was immediate. My speakers completely came to life, way cleaner, fuller, and more detailed than before. The headphone output also sounds fantastic and has plenty of power. Everything feels tighter and more controlled, especially compared to running audio straight from a PC or a basic DAC/amp setup. The build quality feels premium, the volume knob is smooth, and having one clean interface for my speakers, headphones, and XLR mic is exactly what I wanted. The onboard controls are simple once you understand them, and it makes the whole desk setup feel much more professional. Overall, this was a huge upgrade. If you’re using real studio monitors, good headphones, and an XLR mic, the Apollo Solo USB is absolutely worth it. ... show more

  • Frustrating to Install, Here's How it Worked For Me
Size: Solo Style: USB
I returned the first one because it takes UAD at least 1 business day to reply. Plus, what's so frustrating is I'm following their instructions to the letter; and I researched the install procedures and guidelines BEFORE I purchased the Apollo (and the Volt). At first, the Apollo would not work via USB; I tried two Intel certified cables and returned it after speaking with tech support. Then, frustrated, I returned the first Apollo and purchased a UAD Volt; this time the UAD Software would not recognize the Volt no matter what cable I used. I returned that and purchased a Scarlett Solo that WORKED out the box. Determined to make this work, I purchased a UAD Apollo again! Wow! This is so frustrating! I purchased new USB-C Cables through Anker and Belkin that support high speed USB 3.0 and more. The Belkin cable is Thunderbolt 4 certified as well! The Apollo was not recognized by Windows 11. Yes, I did a clean install of Windows! I wanted to break the Apollo! I'm serious! Terrible experience! I then tried the Anker USB-C to USB-A cables; that worked as far as installing the software. After I rebooted the computer the UAD Console software launched. BUT WINDOWS would not recognize the Apollo. The Console software would not recognize the Apollo. I kept getting USB errors from UAD software. I then tried two other confirmed USB-C to USB-A cables. Still did not work! To recap, at this point, I used the Anker USB-C to USB-A cables to install the software; for some reason, that worked— it's as if there was a partial recognition of the Apollo. Then I had this crazy idea...."Why don't you try the Belkin USB-C to USB-C cable (Thunderbolt 4) again." I plugged the cable in a 5th time....and it WORKED! WOW!!!!!! What the hay man!? When this thing (Apollo) actually works.... it's beautiful. It was worth the frustration to get it to work. It's sad that a company that makes a product this good can't get it to install properly and their support takes ONE BUSINESS DAY to reply. Hope this helps someone. ... show more

  • Always 2 years behind in working with Mac Operating Systems, Windows a disaster, stay away
Size: Solo Style: Thunderbolt 3
I love the reviews that it's "Mac Only". Wow, if it's that bad on Windows, and we can't even get it to work on current versions of Mac OS's, what is this expensive device for? People with 3 year old Mac's only? I used to really love my UAD audio interfaces... but as a diehard Mac user and music producer, I want to be using Apple's latest operating systems, or at least a recent one. Unfortunately, UAD wins the world record, year after year, for literally being the LAST to every support a Mac OS. It used to be Native Instruments was the one behind, but now it's UAD. For example, it's now April 2022, Mac Monterrey has been in full release for almost 6 months (beta for much longer), and UAD still doesn't support it. Vague "no information available" posts on their site and tech support about when they WILL support it. And they just barely half-heartedly started supporting Big Sur, putting us about 2 OS's behind for Apple OS's. Even when they claim they are finally supporting an OS, their drivers are plagued with issues, locking up the OS when you try to go into their dashboard... in short, it's frustrating. Apple has had M1 computers out for over a year, and now if you want to buy a new Mac, like the amazing new Studio, it's only going to come with Monterrey and you can't downgrade. That means you're constantly unable to use your $1000+ audio interfaces from UAD. I've given up, and so has about 12 or more remixers and producers I work with in a group, and we've all gotten Apogee Symphony or other cards. Imagine our surprise when even super cheap Prosonus or MOTU cards work when UAD doesn't. What are we paying for UAD? To always be behind? Putting our UAD interfaces on Ebay and standardizing on Apogee. It was a nice run, but they either don't have the manpower or care to keep their interfaces working with new OS's. ... show more

  • Good Quality, Not Beginner Friendly
Size: Solo Style: Thunderbolt 3
I bought this interface to use for podcasting, YouTube videos and music. It works well, but it is clearly geared more towards audio professionals and enthusiasts. If you're not accustomed to audio production and technology, this might be a little much to take on depending on your willingness to learn more than a handful about audio production. For me, this interface's accompanying software/plug-ins were a huge learning curve. I was willing to learn, but I quickly realized how much overkill this software was for my production needs. The plug-ins are an extra cost, except for the few that come with it. After a few days of tinkering with the Apollo Solo, I realized how much stuff it could do that I didn't need, as well as things it couldn't do that I did need. Overall, I had a mixed experience with the Apollo Solo. I use a Dell XPS 15 running Windows 10 64-bit and even used a 64-bit DAW and still couldn't get this thing to record without static. I use a Shure sm7b with a cloudlifter. The audio sounded okay in the console, but sounded terrible in the DAW. Everything else worked fine, the things you can do with this interface are pretty cool. The build quality is optimal, and it feels premium. But for $700, I could save $100 and just get the Rodecaster Pro, which will have more inputs and features I can actually use in my workflow, as well as being more beginner friendly. That's what I plan on doing. If you're debating on buying this, I would warn you that I wouldn't consider the Apollo beginner friendly. But that's just my opinion. If you're a beginner, I'd suggest either looking elsewhere or preparing to learn a lot before you can get solid results. ... show more
