Universal Audio APLS HE Apollo Solo Heritage Edition Audio Interface Overview:

Shape your recordings into records.
Apollo Solo is the worlds finest Thunderbolt 3-powered desktop recording audio interface for Mac and Windows, giving you class-leading audio conversion, two mic preamps so you can record through preamps from Neve, API, SSL, and more and a suite of included UAD plug-ins for recording album-quality results, with near-zero latency.

Record Synths and Vocals through Iconic Preamps
With its two Unison preamps and front panel HiZ instrument input, Apollo Solo lets you track in realtime through preamp and channel strip plugins from Neve, Manley, API, and dozens more, giving you the same rich analog texture as the hardware used on decades of iconic music.

Get the Pro Sounds of Analog Hardware, Right on your Desktop
Out of the box, Apollo Solo’s included plug-ins give you album-ready tones in realtime with professional tools like the UA 610-B Tube Preamp & EQ, Teletronix LA-2A tube compressor, amps from Marshall and Ampeg, and more. Plus, Apollo Solo lets you tap into the entire UAD plug-in library, giving you the proven hit-making sounds of Ocean Way Studios, Capitol Chambers, and hundreds more.

Best-in-Class Headphone Amplifier
