Terrible customer service process

The interface is good. Not the best. Nor is the AD/DA. The plugins are good but you are stuck with UDA devices to run them.
And please don’t ever need customer service. There process will make you feel like you back in stone age days and it will take you weeks to solve your issue, IF, They ever do…

ASIO driver not working properly

The quality of the preamps, plug-ins is amazing. Really great device, but the ASIO driver works disgustingly with different sampling frequencies!
As the problem was with PCI-e devices in 2012, so this disease is still going on. Sorry, but we are already living in 2024!
Why Audient audio card works fine with different sampling rates, but your card requires a tambourine dance?!

Only buy if your PC won't support Thunderbolt

The Apollo Twin USB only runs on Windows. I am a long-time Windows user, buying this Windows-only unit seemed like a no-brainer. I compose symphonic band and orchestral music. I hoped the DSP power of this (with an additional PCIe card) would offload enough of the signal processing from the i7 processor in my PC. The DSPs could barely handle the UAD plug-ins needed for the interface. It did not solve my problem. Later I discovered the DSP technology is about 20 years old.

I finally traded my PC for a Mac M1. The M1 is a game-changer. The 20-year-old DSP technology in this unit, not so much. I returned my Windows-only Apollo Twin USB Duo, sold the PCIe DUO card, and bought an M1 and Apollo x4 QUAD. Now I use the x4 QUAD to track my guitar, LC mic, and DLX microphone. The QUAD handles my DSP needs for the x4, and the impedance-matching Unison preamps are pure gold. The M1 handles all the DAW signal processing. Lastly, I was under the wrong impression that I needed the USB because I was running Windows. However, my i7 motherboard had a USB 3.2 interface built-in. I could have bought the Thunderbolt Twin. Before buying the Twin USB, make sure your PC truly has no path for Thunderbolt (USB 3.1 or better). Bottom line, I don't recommend the Apollo Twin USB.

Conclusion after 5 years

Windows/Cubase user here. I use this interface professionally, by recording maximum of 2 channels the same time (no multitrack, drums etc) and doing mix/masters. Before my upgrade I used a Motu audio express. I ve seen a big difference in stability and at rec quality. The unison recording is super smooth clear, and ready to be colored with character of plugins. The only Con I had, was with the DSP, BUT!!! After the native versions, I no longer have this problems and I spend some DSP for live monitoring. The idea for a step further that I did, without changing the card, was to buy an analog neve channel strip and a 8 extra channel ADAT, because I don't want to plug and unplug all the time for my various combinations of cabling.
In general, after the added experience , ear training and user experience as well, I am still super happy and satisfied from the sound, the quality of the UAD plugins, the UAD console experience etc. To be fair, recording with original neve channel strip, has a little better feel, presence and harmonics, BUT!, preamp emulations are not far in sound. Only in the real feel during recording.
Conclusion: If you are a windows user, don't be afraid! Go for it and it's the perfect period to invest to plugins , now that they are native as well.

Muy feliz

Verdaderamente es un sonido increíble, tanto los pre de entrada como salida.
La opción unison es sorprendente y los plug in también. Recién estoy probando tanto el Marshall como el ampeg y son maravillosos. El Avalon 737 me tiene loco. Podrían hacerme un descuento?

Apollo Twin X USB

La Apollo Twin X USB es equipo muy bien construido, se nota la experiencia y el estudio de los Ingenieros. La calidad es extraordinaria tanto para grabar o reproducir, con alto rango dinámico. Lo que no me gusto fue el trato del soporte de Universal Audio y que por momentos se cierra el UA connect, consola. Pero es una buena interfaz de gran calidad y prestaciones.

It works well!

Works great into FL21. On windows having issues connecting signal from apollo to OBS studio etc. Would love to use it for streaming and not just music production. Doesn't seem to be any fixes online in forums or anything. Only consensus I've seen is that if you're using UA with window's you're simple S.O.L on that front.

Reliable stable and sounds amazing

I've used it for years without a problem and I produced unforgettable songs on it. It's the only interface I would ever use in live shows.
