The UAD-2 Satellite TB3 Octo Custom is small but powerful!

It's a really cool thing that helps with heavy projects when I use a lot of powerful UAD plugins.

A technically complex device, but very easy to understand and easy to use.

Works great for me on both Mac and PC.

This is a small portable device that you can take with you if you move around the studios. In addition, you can purchase a separate hardcase for it, for such purposes.

I have this powerful addition to the Apollo x8p in my projects.

I'm glad I bought this device!

I purchased this unit to extend the processing power of my UAD Apollo Twin (Quad). It does what it says on the tin, my UAD Luna (DAW) sessions are no longer maxing-out from the use of dozens of plugins across my recording session. My sessions now fully benefit from UAD's awesome plugins, my home recordings have never sounded so good!

My only criticism is that when I purchased the Apollo Twin, I didn't realise how quickly I was going to run out of processing power and require the satellite unit, (which isn't cheap), but that's more of a criticism of UAD's marketing model rather than the unit. Nevertheless, UAD offer an affordable entry point to world class recording software (UAD Plug-ins and UAD's Luna DAW). Set up was super easy (if memory serves, I placed the satellite unit between my pre-amp and the Apollo), it synched up with my Apollo almost immediately, I just needed to purchase an additional thunderbolt cable and register the unit with UAD. Overall, this unit is a must for all UAD Apollo users!
