Universal Audio Apollo Twin MkII Desktop Heritage Edition & Realtime Analog Classics
Apollo Twin MkII is a ground-up redesign of the world’s most popular professional desktop recording interface for Mac and Windows — delivering enhanced audio conversion with the tone, feel, and flow of analog recording.
