  • Hi Quality, Mac Compatible, Reliable Interface
Style: Studio Edition
The Universal Audio Apollo Twin Duo Gen 2 generates quality sound. Like many people today, my "Studio" is in a bedroom. I purchased the Apollo Twin Duo to replace my Apollo Solo. The Solo is also a good and reliable interface. However, after recording guitar and bass on the Apollo Twin Duo Gen 2 the recording quality was significantly better than the Solo's. UA provides a UAD-2 plug-in package with this interface. I purchased the Studio+ edition which comes with 50+ plugins. The essentials package, the other alternative with the Apollo Twin Duo Gen 2 comes with a substantial number of UAD-2 plug-ins similar to those of the Studio+ package. I use the Apollo Twin Duo Gen 2 on my Mac Mini Pro with the M2 processor and the OS is Sequoia 15.3 -- Apples most current operating system. The Apollo is fully compatible with my MAC. I definitely recomment this. ... show more

  • Perfect Audio Interface for the Studio!
Style: Essentials Edition
I recently purchased the Apollo Twin X, and I am absolutely impressed! The sound quality is incredibly clean and detailed, with outstanding depth and a wide stereo image. The UAD plugins run flawlessly, and the built-in DSP processors handle audio processing without putting any strain on my computer. The design is sleek, the build quality is excellent, and the controls are conveniently placed. Setup was quick and easy, and it works perfectly with my MacBook M1 Pro 16. This is a truly professional tool that inspires creativity and takes your music production to the next level. Highly recommend it to anyone who values top-notch sound quality! ... show more

  • Don’t forget to buy an EXTRA THUNDERBOLT 3-4-5 cable!!!

The workflow has been leveled up smoothly. Sound quality is the best. A bit expensive but better quality than the others at market.

  • La compatibilidad y ser un estándar es una ventaja.
Style: Studio Edition
Excelente construcción, muy bien empacada, estándar de la industria, es una lástima que no incluya un cable adecuado. El pack studio + incluye muy buenos plugins.

  • DONT!!! They will keep your $1,200 and not respond to you. Not worth the risk.
Style: Studio Edition
Universal audio doesn't have phone support and they do not answer their emails. Luckily Amazon let me return my item, but they did have to charge me a restocking fee. If you buy universal audio, you're potentially throwing your money away cuz they will not help you if anything is defective or if you need troubleshooting help. ... show more
