Not windows 10 compatible as promise
Hi, the product is really good with a Mac. But as it is today is not windows 10 compatible. For this price range it should be plug and play with a driver. Sound distortion, cracking, protools session slowing down for no reason . Superior drummer 3 doesn't work at 32 sample but with my 100$ Focusrite Scarlet solo it does? Really Disappointed, I tried all the troubleshooting from their website but nothing work. I am waiting now for the support team to find a way to fix it if it is possible? Nightmare

Sync problems
The Apollo x4 Thunderbolt needs to be restarted regularly.
It loses it's sync and seem to have problem changing between different programs that possibly have different sampler rates.

The perfect addition to my setup.
I've been a happy UAD customer for some years now, and the company never seizes to impress and amaze me with their new products. The X4 is a perfect addition to my setup, and a sizeable upgrade from the Twin MkI I used until now. The unit performs as advertised (which is to say: it sounds amazing) and the form factor is great as well: it looks and feels like the pro piece of gear it is. I literally have nothing bad to say about this, and can wholeheartedly recommend this interface to anyone who's in the market for one. You won't be dissapointed.

Apollo x4 has made my life so much easier...
Switching over to the Apollo x4 with a new 2019 MacBook Pro fitted with 64gb ram running Thunderbolt-3 is a screamer. I had used a ResidentAudio T4 for so long I had forgotten what clarity in audio represents. This unit is so easy to setup and plug and play into my system, I was worried something may have been missing during the install. Everything just works! Very intuitive and easy to incorporate and setup the plugins too.
Great job guys.

Almost There.. But
I'll try this review again as the first one didn't get published, ironically though, my disgruntled follow up did :-)
This unit is GREAT I/O wise, & looks to be a NEAR-PERFECT one-stop interface solution… It is soooooo close.
ALAS! UAD's software, for the most part, is great, but resource-hungry & I’m done spending $thousands upon $thousands on good software to then to pay just as many $thousands on sub-powered hardware. I’m gobsmacked.
Make this an octa-core & I will buy the x4 again.
A quad-core for a stereo channel is the equivalent to the Twin Duo - which I also had and then dumped after 9 months. A pre-amp & guitar amp plug-in seemed to buckle the Twin Duo - ditto for the x4. 2 cores per channels, is just cheap & lazy.
UAD have octa-core tech - PLEASE!!!!!! put it in the x4. I’ll pay extra.
I love your stuff (except most your guitar amp plug-ins), but, if you don’t kit your hardware out to survive the demands of your software, you will get chased out of the park…
It's a tight game with shrinking margins & the longer you stay behind the curve, the harder it’ll be to catch up. Stay ahead.
I expect to able to run, per channel, a pre-amp, a guitar amp, a delay-unit, a verb-unit & a drive-unit (I.e Thermionic Culture, not just JC45 pedal) without resource clipping or hanging.
You have the tech, Make it happen. I’ll be in for life. No more sales or recommendation until then.

Excellent produit, facile à installer, facile à utiliser. Les pug-ins reçus sont magnifiques de réalisme

Sounds great, looks amazing
This is one hell of an interface. Very expansive, yes, but also very versatile and stylish. I am new to UA and just getting the hang of it, Console routing and so on, but the x4 opened so much already.

Still weak
Close. But still a weak product.
I've written a review before - yet, it was not published. SURPRISE!
Why? Do you only post high reviews to bolster your sales?
If you want a high review - make a better product. READ OTHER REVIEW.
Make your management work & let your engineers build.
You used to make legendary products - now... mediocre

Great Interface
Great Interface and amazing sound quality! The unison feature is a pleasure to use!
P. FRATTINI
The new reference. A real game changer.
This. Is. Everything.
Pristine sound, quality build, slick design and incredibly versatile. It’s a must-have.
The integration in any set-up is crazy simple, and its workflow is smooth. Everything feels natural. Everything sounds unique.
It will suit many scenarios, can even upgrade a live set-up and is just with no equivalent on the market.
The Unison technology is a game changer, the 4 SHARC DSPs are outstandingly performant and, in the end, it becomes the center piece of your studio the instant it lends on your desk.

New User
I'm totally a fan of the new x4. HOWEVER, as a new user, I find it frustratingly difficult to navigate the drop-down menus. My machine comes with precisely 9 plugins. When the drop screen falls, however, there are myriad selections to chose from, only 9 of which I actually own. If find this completely confusing, and of no benefit whatsoever. (Except to UA, who wished to sell me more plugins.) The learning curve is steep enough already. Why make it so confusing? I'm fairly tenacious and have overcome - but is anyone out there in agreement?
In any event, it's an awesome machine.

a Great piece of equipment
This audio interface sounds great. The Unison preamps are really an improvement if you want, for example, to record drums with few mics.
A. Young
Totally Awesome! Thank
The Apollo x4 is everything it was hyped to be........!

I am not sure WHY it sounds better but.. IT DOES!
I had the MKII Quad Twin and i was skeptical about the purchase of this interface due to people saying the X series converters are better, mixes sound better, everything better. I was like "yeah right, these people probably work for Universal Audio or something and they are posting fake reviews" But when decided to buy the Apollo X4 and try it, immediately heard a difference of quality on the same track that i had just listened to on the mkII. It was weird. I even played samples and drum one shots and heard them clearer. I honestly dont know what they did to the converters on the desktop version, but i dont know they improved them somehow! Buy it for the sound quality ALONE! Also buy it for the two native headphone outputs that were definitely needed for a longtime. The twin is good but without the headphone jacks on the front , that made it hard to collab or even podcast. i know there are workarounds for the headphone issue but the X4 is really the only desktop interface you will need unless your projects get too big and/or you need more processing power.

This is MUCH BETTER than the twin
I had the MKII twin quad it was great but I wished for the things the x4 has! Once I got the X4 and tried it , I was so happy I bought it. I can’t imagine wanting my twin back. This interface is perfect for me.
