Flagship Desktop Audio Interface with Elite Conversion and DSP Power
The Universal Audio Apollo Twin X DUO Gen 2 (Essential Edition) is a 2-in/6-out Thunderbolt 3 desktop audio interface that delivers class-leading conversion, real-time UAD plug-in processing, and Unison-enabled mic preamps in a compact and elegant design. Built for serious producers, home studios, and mobile creators, the Twin X DUO offers premium audio quality and analog character in a streamlined, portable format.
As part of the Essential Edition, this version includes UA’s Realtime Analog Classics Plus plug-in bundle, giving you the tools to start creating straight out of the box.
Unison Preamps: Record Through Legendary Gear
The Twin X DUO is equipped with two Unison-enabled mic/line preamps that emulate the tone, impedance, and gain behavior of iconic analog preamps from Neve, API, Manley, and more. Unison technology physically reconfigures the interface’s input circuit to deliver unmatched authenticity and detail.
With UAD-2 DUO Core DSP, you can monitor and record through vintage compressors, EQs, and reverb plug-ins in real time—without adding load to your computer.
