Technical highlights of the Apollo X6 Gen 2 Studio+

This technology makes it possible to use UAD plug-ins in real time without taxing the computer's performance. With two Unison microphone preamps, authentic analog sound characteristics can be emulated. Functions such as auto-gain, +48 V phantom power, pad, low-cut and phase reverse significantly expand the recording options.

In addition, the interface supports surround formats up to 5.1 with speaker calibration and downmix functions, making it particularly suitable for professional post-production and mixing applications. Dual Crystal Clocking technology ensures low-jitter, artifact-free recordings and stable stereo imaging, while the integrated talkback microphone facilitates communication in the studio.
