Apollo Solo USB Manual Unison 168
Activating Unison
Unison is activated by inserting any Unison-enabled
plug-in into the dedicated Unison insert available on
Console’s preamp input channels. Click the UNISON
insert to select a Unison-enabled plug-in from the
Insert Assign popover.
Tip: Unison can be active on more than one
preamp channel at the same time.
Unison Insert Location
The Unison insert is located between the preamp
gain knob and the standard channel inserts. The text
“UNISON +” is overlaid on this insert.
Note: To make the Unison insert visible, choose
OVERVIEW or INPUT from the View Column.
Unison Processing
Important: Unison processing in Console’s Unison insert
is always active on the channel’s input signal, regardless
of any subsequent channel routing options (HP cue, DAW
I/O, etc). Therefore Unison processing is always recorded
in the DAW, even if Console’s Insert Effects switches are
set to MON.
Unison Plug-Ins with Standard Inserts
UAD plug-ins that support Unison can also be used Console’s standard inserts and/or
within a DAW via VST/AAX 64 (as with any UAD plug-in). However, when Unison plug-
ins are used in standard inserts, there is no physical or electrical hardware interaction.
Unison plug-ins function the same as non-Unison UAD plug-ins in this configuration.
Important: Unison features are available only when Unison-enabled UAD plug-ins
are loaded within Console in the dedicated Unison inserts.
