Access the World of UAD Powered Plug-Ins
Going beyond the included Realtime Analog Classics Plus plug-ins, Apollo x8p lets you
tap into the full UAD Powered Plug-In library of name-brand vintage EQs, compressors,
reverbs, tape machines, channel strips, and more — at near-zero latency, regardless of
your audio software’s buffer size and without taxing your computer’s CPU.
With exclusive emulations from SSL, Neve, Studer, Manley, API, Ampex, Lexicon,
Fender, Helios, and more,* it’s like having a studio full of iconic analog gear, in a single
rack space. And unlike competing interfaces, these award-winning DSP-powered plug-ins
are also available in your DAW for mixing.

audio equipment.
Build a Networked Studio System Over Thunderbolt
Apollo x8p offers 18 x 22 simultaneous inputs/outputs (8 x 8 analog I/O) and two built-in
Thunderbolt 3 ports, which are backwards-compatible with Thunderbolt 1 and 2 Macs
via adapter (sold separately). This allows users of any Thunderbolt-equipped Apollo Twin
or Apollo rackmount audio interfaces to easily combine up to four Apollos and six total
UAD-2 devices — adding fast, high-bandwidth I/O and DSP as your studio grows.
