Universal Audio Apollo X16 TB3

The flagship Apollo x16 allows music producers,
project, and post-production studios to track, overdub, and mix with
elite-class A/D and D/A conversion, HEXA Core UAD plug-in processing,
Dual-Crystal clocking, and 7.1 surround sound monitoring — all in a
sleek rackmount Thunderbolt 3 audio interface for Mac or Windows.

Built upon UA’s 60-year heritage of audio craftsmanship, this 18 x 20
interface delivers the widest dynamic range (133 dB) and lowest THD+N
(-129 dB) of any integrated audio interface on the market, all-new HEXA
Core processing — yielding 50% more DSP for running acclaimed UAD
Powered Plug-Ins in real time — plus it includes LUNA Recording System, giving you a fully-integrated music production application.

UA’s Flagship A/D and D/A Conversion

With thousands of chart-topping songs and
hundreds of Grammy-winning albums under their belt, Apollo interfaces
are no strangers to tracking stellar-sounding records. To improve on the
previous generation Apollo interface’s 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.

The Apollo X series also introduces new Dual-Crystal clocking —
featuring dedicated crystals for 44.1/88.2/176.4k and 48/96/192k sample
rates — resulting in stunningly low jitter, measured at less than 10
picoseconds. This translates into pure, artifact-free recordings and
solid stereo imaging you can trust.

With 133 dB dynamic range and THD+N of -129 dB, the Apollo x16’s open,
natural sound quality bests every interface in its class — regardless of
price — and is the perfect starting point for applying UAD processing.

A Full Suite of Classic Analog Processing Onboard

Of course, a hallmark feature of Apollo is its
Realtime UAD Processing, letting you run the full library of UAD
plug-ins with near-zero latency. Apollo x16 includes the Realtime Analog
Classics Plus plug-in bundle, so you can record and mix with the
world’s only authentic Teletronix LA-2A, 1176LN, and Fairchild
compressors, Pultec EQs, and many more.

Apollo: The Choice of New-School Professionals

Apollo is the confirmed choice of hit-making professionals, used to record landmark albums by Kendrick Lamar (DAMN.), Chris Stapleton (From A Room: Volume 1), Arcade Fire (Everything Now), Post Malone (Beerbongs & Bentleys), and many more. The Apollo range of interfaces has earned numerous industry awards from Sound on Sound, Future Music, and Electronic Musician — as well as the prestigious TEC Award for computer audio hardware five years running.
