Universal Audio Apollo Twin X QUAD Gen 2 Essentials+ Edition Bundle

Elite Conversion. Legendary Tone. Quad Processing.

The Apollo Twin X QUAD Gen 2 Essentials+ is the pinnacle of desktop audio interfaces, fusing cutting-edge digital precision with the warmth of vintage analog gear. Tailored for musicians, producers, and songwriters in project studios, it empowers you to track, mix, and master with zero-latency UAD plug-ins, delivering the exact sounds of legends like Neve, API, and Manley. With its hybrid workflow blending onboard QUAD processing and your computer's native power, plus innovative Gen 2 tools like room correction and subwoofer integration, it's the ultimate bridge between timeless tone and modern efficiency.

QUAD Core DSP: Maximum Processing Power 
The defining feature of this model is its four onboard SHARC DSP processors. This QUAD Core architecture provides massive headroom for running UAD plug-ins. Unlike the DUO model, the QUAD allows users to stack multiple power-hungry plug-ins—such as tape machines, channel strips, and immense reverbs—on a single input channel without hitting DSP limits. It is the ultimate solution for "power users" who want to track and mix with full analog signal chains in real-time.

Elite-Class Gen 2 Audio Conversion 
The Apollo Twin X Gen 2 features a completely redesigned audio architecture, boasting a class-leading 129 dB dynamic range on the monitor outputs. This "Elite-Class" resolution ensures that what you hear is exactly what you get, providing a pristine, uncolored monitoring path that reveals every detail of your mix, from the deepest sub-bass to the airiest high-end transients.

Unison™ Technology & Assistive Auto-Gain
 Equipped with two Unison™ mic preamps, the interface allows you to record through exact emulations of vintage gear from Neve, API, and Manley. The Gen 2 update enhances this workflow with Assistive Auto-Gain. This feature automatically detects your input signal levels and calibrates the gain for you in seconds, ensuring perfectly leveled recordings every time without the risk of digital clipping.

Next-Gen Monitoring Features
The Gen 2 Apollo Twin X is now a fully integrated monitoring hub. It supports Apollo Monitor Correction (via Sonarworks® SoundID Reference), allowing you to apply room calibration profiles directly to the DSP for accurate listening in untreated rooms. Additionally, the new Bass Management feature allows for seamless subwoofer integration, giving you precise control over crossover frequencies for full-range 2.1 monitoring setups.
