The centre of my studio
Since getting the Apollo Twin, I've realised that everything else I had previously used simply wasn't making my performance or equipment sound as good as it could! It's the centre of my studio and I simply couldn't go without it.

... pretty much a perfect tool that will also make you a better musician as well.
As a guitarist writer-arranger slash yadda, I had been out of the production loop for a while up until 2 years ago when I started a serious journey to study & understand production techniques to create better recordings free of excuses.
The Apollo gear had been on the wish for a while. The list of advocates at all levels was certainly compelling. In short... the MkII was-is the perfect, relatively $ painless stepping stone into the pro pool. The closer for me was a video of a great blues player demoing a Tweed deluxe plugin. I was tired of 'interesting' guitar tones via amp sims. Fast forwarding to the experience of plugging in after an easy install process, I was immediately floored. The clarity of signal hit me in the face big time. Even in knowing absolutely zero about the UA system while also knowing I was in for a lot of welcome lab coat work, the first tests were stunning. It truly felt like there was a deluxe mic'd up in my garage.
I waited a while to write a review as I had no point of reference, but 5 months in and massive growth in understanding the system, VST & Unison's benefits the process has been amazing and my appreciation for UA's vision, team of engineers and front line has continued to grow. Even using the MkII simply as a stand alone tool for practice or writing, which I do a lot of, it was worth the purchase.
As I continue to grow with implementation & integration into Logic X and Reason my enthusiasm and knowledge grows. You can do almost anything with the system. In regards to the console tool and how to implement the features took a minute to sink in... but was worth the effort and patience. I asked a lot of questions from various sources that appeared to have the knowledge base and received conflicting approaches which was somewhat expected, many were discounting it's functions & purpose but then I routinely found serious engineers sitting in front of their $750k console with the console application front and center. Point being, it's powerful and very useful and like any tool worth it's weight you have to earn the relevant knowledge with research, implementation & effort.
The UA tools allow you to access the 'real' pro tools of the pros and grow your own system in a organic scale-able manner. The MkII quad is one of the best investments & pieces of equipment I have ever owned. Now you actually can make pro recordings and become a better player, writer and engineer from a lap top. It is a huge game changer.

Amazing Interface
I've had no problems with it so far! It's a great interface. The only thing I have noticed is that it gets VERY hot really quickly. After about 20 - 30 mins of it being on, it's already hot. Not sure if this is normal. Just a little bit worrying! Apart from that, no issues :)

Apollo Twin
Brand new to digital recording. Learning is in infancy. The quality of these Mike preamps are stellar. Will update as I learn the equipment.
S. Hidalgo
Lots of great value, but some issues with stability
Having issues with it crashing my laptop at least once a day. Love the functions of it and sounds great. Not thrilled I have to sit throught this many reboots. Been doing this a long time and have had several pro levels of gear and this is the first time i've dealt with this on such a consistant basis.

The Amazing Apollo Twin MKII Duo Thunderbolt
I love my Apollo twin MkII duo thunderbolt! It's the best audio interface for what I need for my home studio. .Amazing sounding interface! I am really enjoying the unison technology, which is great with preamps and amp plugins. Makes my recordings sound amazing!
J. Browning
excellent!
Built like a tank and a quick setup. Included plugins are equally excellent! I’ll be a UAD user for life now....
D. Stillman
Best interface for the price
Absolutely love this thing I’ve owned the apogee duet 2 and baby face pro. Although the Apollo is quite a bit more expensive I recommend saving up because the work flow and features in this interface are incredible. The unison pre amps are phenomenal so good I’m selling all my analog pre amps.

WHAT A BLESSING!!!
I've always wanted an Apollo Twin MkII to use with my Apollo 8. Well, I walked into a local pawn shop and there it was (in mint condition)! I kinda anticipated that there might be some issues with registering the unit, but as it turned out, the previous owner NEVER REGISTERED THE UNIT!!! I was so shocked that I was able to get the Apollo Twin MkII at a crazy awesome price (and all the UAD perks that comes with it after registering the unit)! In addition to using it with my Apollo 8 at home, I can now use it for remote recording, keeping the same awesome quality of sound on the road, that I get at home! WHAT A BLESSING!!!

GAME! CHANGER!
I was on the verge of purchasing a number of 500 Series outboard modules to upgrade my current setup and provide different ‘flavors’ to my sound. However, after doing some research UaD caught my eye with the emulations that they have made available. I bought the Twin, the Neve Preamp, and number other plugins (aside from the bundle that comes standard) and I must say I’m beyond impressed! The AD/DA conversion is insanely clean! The Unison Technology is mind-blowing, allowing me to get variety with my analog ‘feel’ in seconds! Best of all, it’s easy to use and extremely functional. This thing is magic in a grey tabletop tank! Best investment I’ve made in a while! UaD, you guys are geniouses!
