Apollo Solo USB Manual Introducing Apollo Solo USB 9
Access the World of UAD Powered Plug-Ins
Beyond the included Realtime Analog Classics plug-ins, Apollo Solo USB lets you
tap into the full library of award-winning UAD Powered Plug-Ins — including vintage
EQs, Compressors, Reverbs, Tape Machines, Auto-Tune and more — in real time. With
exclusive emulations from Neve, Ampex, Lexicon, Fender, Antares, Moog, and more,* the
creative possibilities are nearly endless.
Vintage Guitar and Bass Amps
For guitarists and bassists, Apollo Solo USB includes Unison technology on its front
panel instrument input — giving you access to dead-on emulations of amps like the
Fender® ‘55 Tweed Deluxe, Ampeg® B-15N Bass Amplifier, and the included Marshall®
Plexi Classic — all available at near-zero latency for songwriting and recording.
Best-in-Class Headphone Amplifier
Apollo Solo USB’s onboard headphone output is louder and punchier, with lower noise
and flatter frequency response versus any interface in its class. This means you can
confidently track and mix using headphones, knowing you’re hearing every sonic detail.
Ready to Go
With its robust all-metal construction and exceptional sound quality, Apollo Solo USB
is the only desktop audio interface for Windows users that truly delivers professional
results. It’s like having a virtual analog studio that fits onto any desktop, and easily
travels in your laptop bag.
