Universal AudioApollo x16 Thunderbolt 3 Audio Interface

Universal Audio Apollo x16

Featuring HEXA Core DSP, Thunderbolt 3 connectivity, and pristine conversion, the Universal Audio Apollo x16 offers increased power and innovation that frankly did not seem possible. With 1.5 times the processing power for UAD plugins, unprecedented dynamic range, simply remarkable signal-to-noise ratio, and tons of niceties from talkback to surround support, the Apollo x16 is a powerful next step in Universal Audio's lineup, taking an already astonishingly high-quality product to greater heights than seemed possible. Thunderbolt 3's speed offers not only remarkably low latency, but the ability to easily expand for larger setups. Combine all that with an excellent set of included UAD plugins, and the Apollo x16 is clearly one of the finest interfaces on the market.

New from Universal Audio, Luna unlocks the full potential of your X16 or other Thunderbolt enabled Universal Audio devices. The Accelerated Realtime Monitoring allows for analog-style recording and overdubbing using the Apollo's built-in DSP acceleration capabilities. Luna is available for free download for Apollo users here. Note that at the moment, Luna only works with Mac computers.
