Unison™
Technology for Stunning
Mic and Guitar Preamp Emulations
Apollo Solo's Unison technology gives you the tone, touch, and
“feel” of the world's most sought‑after preamps. These
include the bundled UA 610‑B Tube Preamp, plus authentic mic
preamp emulations from Neve® and API,® plus
guitar amp emulations from Fender® and Marshall®
— complete with their signature impedance, gain stage “sweet
spots,” and component‑level circuit behaviors.*
The secret to Unison is its hardware‑software
integration between Apollo Solo’s mic preamps and its onboard UAD-2
processing. Simply place a Unison preamp plug-in on your mic input in
Apollo's Console software, and it physically reconfigures Apollo’s
impedance and gain staging — giving you the classic tube and
transformer sounds of the world’s most recorded mic preamps and
guitar amps.

Full Suite of Classic
Studio Processing Onboard
Right out of the box, Apollo Solo provides a suite of incredible analog emulation plug‑ins including the world’s only authentic Teletronix LA‑2A and 1176LN compressors, Pultec EQs, and much more.
