To improve on the class-leading audio conversion of the previous generation of Apollo interfaces, UA engineers have relentlessly tested the latest A/D and D/A converters - ultimately combining elite-class 24-bit/192 kHz converters with all-new analogue circuitry for an ultra-high-quality signal path.Real-time UAD HEXA Core Processing:Apollo x8 Heritage Edition features HEXA Core processing with six DSP chips and 50% more UAD plug-in processing power than previous Apollos.
