Apollo Thunderbolt Software Manual Console Overview 49
Digital Inputs
Apollo, Apollo 8
Console’s eight ADAT and two S/PDIF (stereo left and right) inputs work just like the
analog inputs, except they don’t have the extra preamp and reference level settings that
are only available on the analog inputs.
Apollo 8p, Apollo Twin
Apollo Twin’s digital TOSLink input can accept ADAT or S/PDIF. Console’s inputs switch
to reflect the digital input type currently in use (the digital input preference is set in the
Console Settings window). The digital inputs work just like the analog inputs, except they
don’t have the extra the preamp and reference level settings that are only available on
the analog inputs.
Apollo 16
Console has two AES/EBU inputs (left and right). MADI inputs are not available in
Console.
Virtual Inputs
The virtual input channels in Console do not reflect Apollo’s hardware inputs. Instead,
they receive digital signals from DAW outputs via Apollo’s device drivers, enabling
Realtime UAD Processing on any DAW output. This feature is especially useful when
playing virtual software instruments live through UAD plug-ins because it reduces I/O
buffering latency. For complete details about this feature, see Virtual I/O.
