Elite Audio Conversion with Four Unison Mic Preamps, HEXA Core Processing, and Surround Sound.
The Apollo x8 Heritage Edition has all the benefits of the acclaimed Apollo x8, including world-beating A/D and D/A conversion, HEXA Core UAD plug-in processing, Unison-enabled mic preamps, and full LUNA Recording System integration. And it goes a step further, with a software suite of 10 award-winning UAD plug-in titles, featuring Collections from Helios,®Fairchild,®Teletronix,®Pultec,® and UA
With thousands of chart-topping songs and Grammy-winning albums under their belt, Apollo interfaces are no strangers to tracking stellar-sounding records. To improve on the previous generation Apollo interfaces’ class-leading audio conversion, UA engineers obsessively auditioned the latest A/D and D/A converters —ultimately pairing elite-class 24-bit/192 kHz converters with all-new analog circuitry for an ultra-pristine signal path
Apollo x8 Heritage Edition features HEXA Core processing, with six DSP chips and 50% more UAD plug-in processing power than previous Apollos. This lets you run more UAD plug-ins, whether you’re tracking in real time with channel strips from Neve, Manley, SSL, Avalon, Helios, or API, or running high UAD plug-in counts when mixing in your DAW
- Included Plug-Ins in the Realtime Analog Classics Plus Bundle: UA 610-B Tube Preamp & EQ, Marshall Plexi Classic Guitar Amp, Ampeg SVT-VR Classic Bass Amp, UA 1176LN Limiting Amplifier (Legacy), UA 1176SE Limiting Amplifier (Legacy), Pultec EQP-1A EQ (Legacy), Pultec Pro EQ (Legacy), Teletronix LA-2A Leveling Amplifier (Legacy), Fairchild 670 Compressor (Legacy), Precision Enhancer Hz, Raw Distortion
