The Universal Audio Apollo 8p is a 16x20 Thunderbolt 2 audio interface featuring 8 Unison-enabled mic preamps and onboard UAD-2 QUAD DSP for near-zero latency tracking and mixing with UAD plug-ins. It is highly regarded for its pristine next-generation A/D and D/A conversion. This Unit does show standard rack rash, scuffs and minor scratches all major flaws outlined in photos. This will come with the current plugins that UAD offers to all new users regardless of the interface (minus the firewire interfaces. I am able to transfer the license and plugins to the buyer. Check UAD’s website to see what comes free with there Apollo Interfaces.
