Universal Audio Apollo Solo USB 2/2 Digital Interface

Please note: this unit requires a USB 3 (Type C) cable; one is not provided with the unit.

Apollo Solo USB is a desktop recording audio interface for Windows delivering class-leading audio conversion, two Unison mic preamps, and a suite of onboard UAD plug-ins for recording album-quality results, in real time.

This compact 2×4 interface starts with esteemed Apollo A/D and D/A conversion to sonically outperform anything in its class. And with its Unison technology and built-in UAD2 processing, you can record through classic studio tools including the UA 610B Tube Preamp & EQ, LA2A and 1176 compressors, and more with nearzero latency.

Apollo Solo USB’s Unison technology gives you the tone, touch, and feel of the world’s most soughtafter preamps. These include the bundled UA 610B Tube Preamp, plus authentic mic preamp emulations from Neve and API, plus guitar amp emulations from Fender and Marshall complete with their signature impedance, gain stage sweet spots, and componentlevel circuit behaviors.

The secret to Unison is its hardwaresoftware integration between Apollo Solo USB’s mic preamps and its onboard UAD-2 processing. Simply place a Unison preamp plug-in on your mic input in Apollo’s Console software, and it physically reconfigures Apollos impedance and gain staging giving you the classic tube and transformer sounds of the worlds most recorded mic preamps and guitar amps.

Right out of the box, Apollo Solo USB provides a suite of incredible analog emulation plugins including the worlds only authentic Teletronix LA2A and 1176LN compressors, Pultec EQs, and much more. From the tube warmth of the Pultec EQ on guitars, to the gentle limiting of the LA2A on vocals, your recordings will take a giant leap forward in rich, sonically complex analog sound.

For guitarists and bassists, Apollo Solo USB includes Unison technology on its front panel instrument input giving you access to dead-on emulations of amps like the Fender ’55 Tweed Deluxe, Ampeg B15N Bass Amplifier, and the included Marshall Plexi Classic all available at near-zero latency for songwriting and recording.

Apollo Solo USB’s onboard headphone output is louder and punchier, with lower noise and flatter frequency response versus any interface in its class. This means you can confidently track and mix using headphones, knowing you’re hearing every sonic detail.

With its robust all-metal construction and exceptional sound quality, Apollo Solo USB is the only desktop audio interface for Windows users that truly delivers professional results. Its like having a virtual analog studio that fits onto any desktop, and easily travels in your laptop bag.
