A serious piece of kit!

The perfect interface if you're into Series 500 Hardware gear. I can't believe what I can achieve with the ApolloX8, Cranbourne ADAT 500 and a patchbay. It sounds incredible.

I’m in love with this audio interface

Great quality of both hardware and software. I was new to UA products, but now I can’t imagine working without them. A lot of nice updates since I’ve bought Apollo and also I’ve got the DLX mic - I like it a lot.

Outstanding audio interface with great plugins & softwares

I amazed very much as I checked Apollo X8 heritage edition first time after registering it.it hardware & software quality and integration is outstanding.with a lot of strong features gorgeous hardware display and connections...

It's plugins are no.1 plugins in the world like these were never offered with any world class any audio interface...I think it compete the great brands....I think only one audio interface is it's hard competitor or may be better in sound quality in some case in a little amount but it not came such a great plugins and software collection as Apollo X series came and that is Prism audio

Universal Audio quality

Great built quality but the DSP inside deserves an update...

The sound is enough for day to day use but prefers the sound of my Clarett+ 4Pre

Truly Pro Gear

The price says it all, and it's worth every centime. Superior sound, superior digital conversion, audibly better latency, fully thought-through workflows. I graduated from a very fine Focusrite Clarett 8Pre and will never look back. If you're serious (like, REALLY serious) about your music, you need an Apollo.
