Overview

Create Music with Timeless Analog Sound

Hear every detail with our most advanced Apollo Twin ever. Featuring highest-resolution audio conversion, Unison™ mic preamps, and realtime UAD processing — which lets you record through plug-ins from Neve, API, Manley, Auto-Tune, and more without latency — Apollo Twin X puts decades of inspiring analog studio sound right on your desktop.

Put Our Best Apollo Yet on Your Desktop

We built Apollo Twin X for the next generation of music producers looking to get the sounds used by the world’s biggest artists. With elite-class 24-bit / 192 kHz Gen 2 audio conversion and the widest dynamic range to date, Apollo Twin X puts the sound of the stars in your studio.

Record Through Famous Preamps

Track through emulations of classic gear from Neve, Manley, API, and dozens more with Unison™ preamp technology, giving you the rich analog textures used on the greatest recordings of our time.

Hear the Details Like Never Before

Now in its Gen 2 design, Apollo Twin X features our highest-resolution D/A converters ever. This enhanced monitoring, paired with features like Apollo Monitor Correction by Sonarworks,* means you’ll hear the most accurate representation of your recordings when mixing through monitors or headphones.

Mix with Authentic Analog Sounds

Out of the box, Apollo Twin X gives you the same tools used by the world’s biggest artists. Along with included LA-2A compressors, Pultec EQs, and amps from Marshall and Ampeg — you can tap into the entire library of over 200 UAD plug-ins to unlock proven hit-making sounds.

Find Your Perfect Workflow

Just like many pro studios, where an analog console is the heart of the workflow, Apollo Twin X has a powerful mixing engine where you control plug-in routing and monitoring. And with the latest features like Auto-Gain, Bass Management, and Plug-In Scenes, it’s easy to find a flow that fits your needs.

A Hybrid System for Your Mission

Combine Apollo Twin X’s DUO or QUAD Core DSP with native processing from your computer to produce large sessions with complex plug-in chains — a powerhouse hybrid workflow that outpaces any native-only recording setup.

Expand Your Studio as You Grow

Build out your dream studio by linking up to four Thunderbolt Apollo interfaces for up to 128 channels of premium I/O, and control it all from your desktop using Apollo Twin X. So no matter how far your music takes you, an Apollo will always be in reach.**
