Building on Universal Audio's 60-year heritage and expertise, this 18x24 interface features four Unison preamps, enabling authentic emulation of Neve, API, Manley, Helios, SSL, and other preamps, along with HEXA Core processing for real-time UAD plug-in processing with 50% more DSP. In addition to its class-leading conversion, the UNIVERSAL AUDIO APOLLO X8P | HERITAGE EDITION offers selectable operating levels to ensure compatibility with professional +24 dBu equipment, monitor level control via a dedicated controller, and communication between the live room and control room thanks to the integrated talkback microphone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eSuperior AD\/DA conversion with the widest dynamic range and lowest noise floor available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRecord and mix with HEXA Core processing, featuring 6 UAD DSP chips for real-time processing of multiple UAD plug-ins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRecord with 8 near-zero latency UNISON preamps through emulations of Neve, API, Manley, Fender, and other preamps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eEasily connect the interface to professional outboard gear with +24 \/ +20 dBu headroom switches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eWork in 7.1 surround formats, complete with speaker calibration and fold-down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated talkback and cue for simplified communication\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo enhance the conversion of previous generation Apollo audio interfaces, UA engineers meticulously tested the latest A\/D and D\/A converters on the market, coupling 24-bit\/192 kHz converters with entirely new analog circuitry for a pristine signal path. The Apollo X series also introduces the new Dual-Crystal clocking, featuring dedicated crystal oscillators for sample rates of 44.1\/88.2\/176.4 kHz and 48\/96\/192 kHz, with incredibly low jitter, measured at less than 10 picoseconds. This allows for artifact-free recordings and a reliable stereo image. With a dynamic range of 129 dB and -119 dV THD+N, the Apollo x8p Heritage Edition offers an open and natural sound quality superior to many other interfaces in a similar range, and it is the perfect starting point for UAD processing.\u003cbr\u003eThe UNIVERSAL AUDIO APOLLO X8P | HERITAGE EDITION features new HEXA Core processing, with six DSP chips and 50% more UAD plug-in processing than previous Apollos. This allows for the use of more UAD plug-ins, whether you are recording in real time with Neve, Manley, or API channel strips or mixing with several plug-ins open within your DAW.\u003cbr\u003eFrom the tube warmth of Pultec EQs on guitars to the musical limiting of the LA-2A on vocals, the genuine power of an 1176 or a Fairchild 670 compressor on drums, your recordings will take a giant leap in quality with the typical rich and three-dimensional sound that only UAD plug-ins can offer.\u003cbr\u003eUNIVERSAL AUDIO APOLLO X8P | HERITAGE EDITION interfaces work with all major DAWs, such as Logic Pro, Ableton Live, Pro Tools, and others. But now, they become a fully integrated recording system with LUNA, a new recording application for Mac by Universal Audio. Powered by Accelerated Realtime Monitoring™, LUNA allows you to record and mix with an intuitive single-window workflow and an unlimited number of tracks, Audio Units support, and access to an exclusive suite of LUNA Instruments and LUNA Extensions.\u003cbr\u003eFrom Studer tape multitracking and integrated Neve summing to Moog instruments and many others, LUNA transforms Apollo interfaces into the most inspiring music creation platform on the planet.\u003cbr\u003eThe UNIVERSAL AUDIO APOLLO X8P | HERITAGE EDITION includes eight Unison preamps, for project studios and professional facilities that need many channels of preamplification. This technology allows you to record through exact emulations of Neve, API, Manley, SSL, and Universal Audio. Unison technology is exclusive to Universal Audio and achieves the classic sound of these tube and solid-state preamps, including their input impedance, the \"sweet spot\" of gain staging, and the quality of the original hardware components. The secret to Unison is its hardware-software integration between Apollo's preamps and its onboard real-time UAD processing.\u003cbr\u003eUndoubtedly a typical feature of Apollo is its real-time UAD processing, which allows you to use the entire UAD plug-in library with near-zero latency. The UNIVERSAL AUDIO APOLLO X8P | HERITAGE EDITION includes the Realtime Analog Classics bundle, which will allow you to record and mix with the Teletronix LA-2A, 1176LN, Fairchild compressors, the UA 610-B Unison tube preamps and EQs, and Marshall and Ampeg guitar and bass amps.\u003cbr\u003eThe UNIVERSAL AUDIO APOLLO X8P | HERITAGE EDITION goes beyond the included Realtime Analog Classics bundle and introduces the user to a world of UAD plug-ins complete with vintage EQs, compressors, reverbs, tape machines, channel strips, and much more, allowing their use with near-zero latency regardless of the software's buffer size and without burdening the computer's CPU. With exclusive emulations of SSL, Neve, Studer, Manley, API, Ampex, Lexicon, Fender, and many others*, it's like having a studio full of iconic analog outboard gear in the space of a single rack unit. These incredible DSP plug-ins will also be available for mixing within your DAW.\u003cbr\u003eWith support for surround monitoring up to 7.1, the UNIVERSAL AUDIO APOLLO X8P | HERITAGE EDITION is a significant advantage for engineers and producers working with audio for music, video games, television, and the web. It also allows you to select the +24 dBu mode for complete out-of-the-box compatibility with professional consoles and other high-end equipment.\u003cbr\u003eThe UNIVERSAL AUDIO APOLLO X8P | HERITAGE EDITION offers 18x24 simultaneous I\/O (8 x 14 analog I\/O) and two integrated Thunderbolt 3 ports, backward compatible with Thunderbolt 1 and 2 via appropriate adapters (sold separately). This allows users with Apollo Twin or Apollo Rackmount audio interfaces to combine up to four Apollos and six UAD-2 devices — adding inputs and DSP in parallel with your studio's growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e18 x 24 Thunderbolt 3 Audio Interface with superior 24-bit\/192 kHz conversion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eUAD Hexa Core real-time processing for recording with UAD plug-ins at near-zero latency, regardless of audio buffer size.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRecord with 8 Unison microphone preamps, offering the user authentic emulation of Neve, API, Manley, SSL, and others.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eDual Crystal Clocking for low jitter.
