Drawing on UA's 60 years of audio experience and know-how, the Apollo FireWire is distinguished by its integrated UAD-2 QUAD Core processing, and the bundled set of UAD plug-ins. Now you can record through these award-winning plug-ins - with near-zero latency - to fine-tune sounds just like in a standard analog studio, all without overloading your Mac or PC host.
Record with world-renowned Apollo A/D and D/A conversion, heard on hundreds of hit records
Use UAD-2 DSP accelerator PCIe cards and the UAD-2 Satellite FireWire together to truly expand your mixing power
Produce music through UAD plug-ins such as Teletronix® LA-2A, 1176 and Fairchild® compressors, Pultec® EQs and 610-B preamp, all included
Record with near-zero latency through Neve®, API® and Manley® preamp emulations
The Apollo FireWire features four Unison-integrated mic preamps for recording through rigorous emulations of Neve, API, Manley and Universal Audio preamps. Exclusive to Apollo, Unison technology reproduces the sound of the most sought-after tube and solid-state mic preamps, as well as their input impedance, the sweet spots or “sweet spots” of the gain stage, and the behavior of the circuitry of the gain stage. original hardware at component level.
The secret to Unison is its hardware-software integration between the Apollo's mic preamps and its integrated UAD-2 QUAD Core DSP accelerator. Simply place a Unison preamp plug-in on your mic input and get the timeless character of the world's most recorded mic preamps
A complete suite of integrated classic analog processing
Included with purchase, the Apollo Firewire offers a suite of incredible analog emulation plug-ins including authentic Teletronix® LA-2A, 1176LN and Fairchild® compressors, legendary Pultec® EQs, and UA 610 tube preamp -B. Developed by UA's world-renowned team of algorithm engineers, these Realtime Analog Classics plug-ins provide a true benchmark against which all other hardware emulation plug-ins are measured.
From the warmth of the Pultec EQ tubes on the guitars to the delicate limiting of vocals by the LA-2A to the “pump effect” induced by the real Fairchild 670 compressor on the drums, your recordings will make a giant step towards rich and sonically complex analog sound.
