Simply I love it
I just sold a Zen Tour Sinergy Core Antelope for an Apollo X4, and I never regretted it for 1 minute. I love this little jewel !

Wspaniały produkt
NA UA X4 przesiadłem się po sprzedaży Antelope Zen Tour. To mój pierwszy produkt z firmą Universal Audio. W porównaniu do poprzednika, X4 wydaje się być produktem kompletnym. Wszystko działa, dźwięk zawodowy, szczegółowy, stabilne sterowniki, nic się nie wysypuje, prostota obsługi. Interfejs jest bardzo dobrze wykonany i jak dla mnie ma wszystko na swoim miejscu. Minusów jak idzie o sam X4 nie zauważyłem póki co, z kolei minusami samego środowiska UA jak dla mnie są: zbyt drogie wtyczki UA (kupując X4 liczyłem się z takim stanem rzeczy), w Console na liście wtyczek brakuje mi wyraźnego oznaczenia pluginów które są w moim posiadaniu. Generalnie polecam!

Bestes Interface bisher
Ich hatte vor einiger Zeit bereits einmal ein Apollo Twin MK I, mit dem ich sehr zufrieden war. Der ausschlaggebende Punkt Pro UAD ist für mich die großartige Stabilität der Treiber in Kombination mit sehr hochwertiger Hardware und die ausgesprochen guten Plugins. Das x4 setzt ausstattungsmäßig nochmal eine gute Schippe drauf... die Vielzahl an Eingängen machen kleine Projekte mit ein paar Musikern deutlich komfortabler und im Vgl. zum Twin MK I klingen die Preamps für mich ein ganzes Stück besser, was sich weniger subtil bemerkbar macht, als ich dachte. Ob E-Bass oder Gesang - der Qualitätsunterschied ist sehr deutlich und rechtfertigt alleine schon das Upgrade. Ich finde bei den Plugins könnte die Preispolitik überdacht werden, Gewinn erzielt UAD so oder so genug. Exklusivität hin oder her, ich hätte gerne eine breitere Basis an Plugins im niedrigeren Preissegment. Die "großen" können ja dennoch wie bisher angeboten werden.

Another killer interface!
Upgraded from a Twin MKII Quad and the X4 is as good as you'd expect from UA. Amazing in every aspect - build quality, pre's, conversion, software, plugins, unison, luna - it's all awesome. Update to Thunderbolt 3/USB-c is great too. Thanks UA!

Just what I needed.
I should have UAD stock. They make some of the best music equipment. I have the Apollo x8 and it was all I needed. Until I purchased a Fender Rhodes and needed additional inputs. The x4 comes with additional inputs, additional DSP, additional speaker monitoring, and on desk control. Perfect!

My best audio interface ever
The best quality sound, pre’s, construction, design and options on the market.

Instantly Better Recordings
The Apollo X4 instantly improved my recordings. Universal Audio is a lot like Apple where it takes using all of their products (in their ecosystem) together to make you never want to go back to anything else. The 4 pres make it possible to track everything including our drummer. Easy to use. And working with Luna and this together is incredible. I saved up for a long time to get this and I am not disappointed.

2 Units Returned in 6 Months
Although Universal has industry acceptance, I've had to return this unit 2 times. The second time I had to pay for shipping. First unit had level meeter lights that did not turn on, and would get extremely hot. I returned it and got a new unit from the retailer. The second unit worked well for approximately 4 months, when suddenly out of no where noise started coming through the speakers plugged in to the unit, the meter lights turned on without anything plugged into the unit, and it also would get extremely hot. When I contacted my retailer, they referred me to Universal, which then asked me to send the unit. I had to pay for shipping. They sent me a new unit because "no one is available to fix the current unit due to covid". I've seriously lost faith in Universal. I feel like I am stuck with serious buyer's remorse. I hope this new unit lives up to its name. Otherwise that's over fifteen hundred dollars down the drain. We shall see.

The perfect home studio solution
Until recently (try not to laugh) I was using a MOTU 1296 firewire interface from 1999. It still worked fine and I thought it sounded ok, but decided to finally upgrade to the Apollo x4. What a HUGE difference in sound quality! I have a good pair of Dynaudio speakers, but with x4 I now feel like a have a new pair of speakers as well. Everything is a joy to listen to. Combine that with all the amazing plugins and wow, I can't believe I waited so long. This is going to take the quality of my music to the next level.

Long time fan of UA (but this is a mixed review and meant for Windows Users mostly)
I Love Universal Audio and every other UA product I own gets 5 stars. As for my Apollo x4: from a hardware perspective, I give it 4 stars. That said, I was warned that Windows users will have trouble. As a Systems Engineer, I am probably more equipped to get things running in Windows 10 than most, and I have for the most part, But from a software perspective, I would give the Apollo x4 2 stars. It's very particular and you must configure everything a certain way and even then, it's inflexible. I really hope that UA hires an ace developer to fix it's software so I can once again say that Universal Audio has never let me down. I realize that most of you out there a Mac users and my little note here should be taken with a grain of salt.

Pure Joy!
It's been about 3 weeks since I started using x4. It is a perfect tool for a rhythm/timing freak like me. The very first impression I had was the solid build it was. Next how easy the process of registration was. Later how easily I set the sound of my guitar. Everything was smooth and easy. Latency? Not my problem anymore. Plugins are insanely good. Worth every penny! Thank you, UA guys! You have brought my joy of recording back. Respect!

A really beautiful, functional piece of hardware
I just a few weeks in to using the ApolloX4. The hardware it self is compact, functional and easy to learn. The clarity and fullness of the audio it delivers is a noticeable step up from my prior interface. I'm completely satisfied.

Great piece of equipment!
Awesome piece of equipment. Having 4 xlr inputs with high quality pre-amps makes all the difference for an exceptional recording. On top of high quality recordings the mobility of the unit helps an artist/producer take the studio wherever it is needed. From one artist to another, I highly recommend.

Top quality interface.
Best interface ı have ever had. Not cheap but it worth the price.
