Universal Audio Apollo x4 Heritage Edition Thunderbolt 3 Desktop Audio Interface

Descrizione

When it comes to recording professional audio in a pro, semi-pro or home studio then you simply can't get any better than a Universal Audio interface. And when it comes to interfaces, the Apollo x4 is next-level. This chunk of progressive desktop-friendly hardware pushes every boundary when it comes to options, starting with immense DSP power which supports hefty plugin stacking. Via the Quad Core UAD plugin processor, more plugins can be applied in real-time and since all of it happens in the interface itself, the CPU load of your computer is non-existent.

Four Unison-Enabled Preamps & Two Unison-Enabled Hi-Z Inputs

The Apollo x4 has been equipped with four preamps and two Hi-Z inputs, every one of which is Unison supported, meaning that each port features automatic impedance detection so no matter what you hook up, the interface will immediately adjust the impedance to match it. This intelligent function is combined with a tidy pack of vintage preamp emulations that come in the form of hardware-based plugins, so you can treat your recordings to the old-school sound of sixties and seventies rack gear made by big names like Neve, API, Manley and SSL. There are also amp simulations on board, and to support an authentic dynamic response alongside an authentic monitoring and recording experience, the ideal impedance curve is applied where needed.

Plus a Software Suite Bundle

When you pick up an Apollo x4 you also get the Realtime Analog Classics Plus Bundle on the side. This hefty bag of goodies includes emulations of a Fairchild 670, a Pultec EQP-1A, Teletronix LA-2A, 1176SE/LN, and a 610-B Tube Preamp and EQ, and that's on top of emulations of Marshall and Ampeg guitar and bass amplifiers. Basically, you're getting a virtual rack of some of the most iconic gear ever to have graced music history, and all of it is driven by Universal Audio's brilliant UAD DSP system and run directly by the Apollo x4, so monitoring, recording, mixing and mastering all happens inside the interface itself.
