Thunderbolt: Ultra-low Latency and Unrivaled Bandwidth You'll receive the Realtime Analog Classics bundle, which includes: Best of all, Apollo Twin MkII lets you record your audio through UAD plug-ins in real time with sub-2ms latency.
You simply can't get the depth, color, and character these plug-ins have without devoting huge CPU resources to them. The astonishing processing power of the UAD platform is what makes these plug-ins sound so great.
UAD Powered Plug-ins have earned their reputation for being some of the most accurate emulations of analog audio equipment ever created. Unison preamp technology will do the same thing for your mic inputs, eliminating the need to collect and maintain expensive hardware preamps just for sonic variety. UAD plug-ins astounded the recording world with their incredible ability to sound like analog processors, eliminating the need for large racks of gear in the studio. So you're not simply filtering your audio to approximate the character of a famous preamp - your microphone is now interacting with the Apollo Twin MkII's input the same way it would behave with the "modeled" preamplifier. When you adjust the Apollo Twin MkII's preamp gain knob and physical controls, the plug-in adjusts the preamp's behavior to match the target preamp. The plug-in actually adjusts the preamp circuit itself, including parameters such as impedance, analog gain structure, and much more. In essence, Unison is a bi-directional communication between the Apollo Twin's mic preamp and a Unison-capable plug-in, such as the included 610-B plug-in that re-creates the sound of UA's classic LA-610 preamp.
The Apollo Twin MkII's Unison preamp technology goes so far beyond traditional software modeling and emulations that it's really in a category all its own. Capture the Sound of Legendary Preamps with Unison Technology Speaking of tracking, the Apollo Twin's astounding Unison mic preamp technology lets you re-create the sound of classic mic preamps in a way that software processing simply can't match. Built-in UAD processing lets you take advantage of the rich, warm, analog sound of UAD Powered Plug-ins during mixdown - and even in real time during tracking.
And with expanded monitoring controls, the Apollo Twin MkII packs console functionality into a desktop interface for Mac and PC. Universal Audio's Apollo Twin MkII improves on the acclaimed Apollo Twin with next-generation AD/DA converters for astonishingly wide dynamic range and ultra-low THD.
