Universal Audio Apollo Twin X Duo Gen2 Ess+

DonMdje 27.02.2025

I recently invested in the Universal Audio Apollo Twin X Duo Gen2 Ess+ and have been very impressed with its performance in my studio. Its exceptional AD/DA converters and Unison preamps deliver pristine sound quality, while the onboard UAD DSP provides near-zero latency monitoring with high-quality plug-ins. The device is very user friendly, making setup and daily use straightforward.

I had already purchased the plug-ins that came with the device, but when I reached out to UAD support, they kindly offered me new plug-ins as replacements. Their helpful and understanding service really added extra value to my experience.

Pros:
• Exceptional audio quality with top-notch converters and Unison preamps
• Real-time UAD DSP processing for low-latency monitoring
• Compact, robust design ideal for home studios
• User friendly with excellent customer support
• Replacement plug-ins offered by support, adding extra value

Cons:
• Premium price tag
• Limited I/O (only two mic preamps) may not suit larger recording setups

Overall, the Apollo Twin X Duo Gen2 Ess+ is a stellar choice for home and project studios seeking professional-quality recording and mixing capabilities in a compact package.
