Absolutely loving it windows 10
So, I got the Apollo Twin Duo TB MKII for windows 10 after using RME for 15 years.
Rock solid! Love the new converters.
If you are wondering if it would be the right choice being a windows guy, the answer is Yes! Even if you can't afford any of the cool but very expensive plugins.
Minimum buffer size is 32 RT. Console is great - Just awesome!

Nice device, useful console tool & low latency monitoring.
I write this review, few days after testing this beast - Perfection doesn't exist but this device is very close from it. Recording latency is very low. Console is certainly the tool I was looking for a long time, allowing to get a correct and ajustable monitoring volume during recording even at high level of mix, in addition virtual tracks are really useful. UAD pluggins I'have try are really amazing & unison is quite a great feature. The best device for recording I have tried so far.

From mobile studio to permanent desk solution
I haven't touched any other outboard gear since I got my Twin MkII. Whether I'm on the road with my laptop and Apollo Twin, or in a studio enviroment, UAD plugins are with me in every stage of production: I record audio through them, I print soft synths through them, and naturally they are vital tools in mixing. It's a perfect system for me and I can't believe how many years I survived without a monster piece of gear like this!

Apollo Twin MKII
I have seen the unit in every home studio across America which has become a standard to have if you're into audio engineering.

Apollo Twin for the Win
This is the best interface iv'e ever had, and though I still have tons to learn about it's functions, I'm enjoying every minute of this and the plugins, I run 5 at a time and thats plenty for what I need, so awesome

Great audio interface!
Perfect choice for a home studio. Built solid with high quality preamps. Then having the added bonus of being able to run your UA plugins with the appollo quad card takes a lot stain of your computer. One of the best features is being able to record with no latency on unison mode. This is definitely my favorite audio interface I've used!

Fantastic by itself or as a monitor controller.
The Apollo Twin MkII is killer as a song writing tool. It has anything you could need to realize your ideas. It can also be a wonderful addition to a larger setup as a monitor controller that also adds DSP and desktop access to Instrument inputs. My person experience with this unit has been positive and I am happy I choose it instead of a dedicated monitor controller because of the aforementioned advantages. It integrates perfectly! My only slight nit would be that if you are monitoring at a higher SPL level, the talkback mic tends to feedback for a split second before the level is dimmed. This will most certainly be addressed in the future as are most things software driven. I highly recommend this unit!

mute button
I wish there was a mute button for the line and mic input so when you want to take the 1/4 inch jack out of the guitar it would not pop in you headphones otherwise it is an amazing unit.

Apollo twin MK II quad - Wow!!!
I bought The Apollo twin quad. The resolution is great. I've been using apogee duet 2 in my home studio before. The Apollo is definitely a level up! I dived in with a massive mix starting to use the plugins i've received and also bought the new SSL compressor (OMFG it is so amazingly good), the AMPEX 102, Neve 1073, Massive passive, 1176 collection and LA2. Oh the 610s are amazing too. I have just been using this system for a couple of days now but i think for me this is a game changer. The transparency of the plugins is exactly what i've been missing for all this time. I've worked as a producer and songwriter for 20years now and finally I can compare the in box mixing with the real world.. It's awesome! So is everything happy smiles? NO.. The problem is that after applying plugins to my mix i run out of processor power..... VERY frustrating.. I could do with and endorsement with 4 octo TB satellites. :D To sum everything up - What ever you do, don't go buying anything else than Universal audio. You will regret it ;) Go for UAD and start with some essential plugin you need.. My next will probably be the EMT 140. Life is good! Cheers / Johan Ramström, co-founder Dist Sthlm & RamPac

The best sounding audio interference
Just amazing. The only fear i have with it it's the temperature...it's very hot after a few minutes

The only thing you need
I compared the API 1608 with the API Unison Mic Pres and evwrything was the same. The stock amplifiers are fantastic. Gave my midi bass some life. If you buy it, you won't be disappointed. If you don't get it, you're missing out.

Well Crafted
I've been through many interfaces in my home studio, but I can say without reservation, that this has been my favorite so far. I say so far because I haven't put it through all the paces yet. Right now I'm using it primarily for mixing, so I haven't recorded into it yet.
The build is excellent. When you touch the unit, it has all the right little things. It's sturdy, has a smooth matte finish, and a sleek design. The buttons have a satisfying click, the knob moves smoothly, and it has a very small footprint. Not the smallest in the market, but considering the chips inside, this is quite small.
The control center is fairly easy to use. It took me a minute to figure out how to record where the effects print, but we're talking a literal minute. The engineers of the unit and the software have clearly sweat the small stuff, which is good to know.
The unit heats up, something I've not seen people write about. I do not leave it on if I'm not working on a session. If it's using enough power to get warm, I don't want to waste unneeded electricity.
I've only had one issue with it loading up, but I turned the unit and the computer off and started them up, unit first and then mac, and that took care of that issue.
If I had to point out any negative, it would be the support. Don't get me wrong it's fine support, but the phone support hours are limited, since I work on mixes during the evenings, and the email support and take a little time. However, they do follow up and they are very knowledgeable and nice--I should note as well, that this is not uncommon in audio. Support is usually an issue.
Overall, I'm very glad I purchased this unit. It sounds great. The plug ins sound close to authentic and I've already mixed two LPs on the unit.
Well done, UA.
