Apollo Solo Manual Getting Started 17
Software Setup
The UAD Software must be installed to use Apollo and UAD-2 plug-ins. You’ll use UA
Connect, our software management program, to obtain and install the UAD software and
the UAD Console application.
Our Web Pages Guide You
The Universal Audio website guides you through the process of software installation and
hardware registration. The procedure you'll follow to complete this process is detailed
below, but the web pages can guide you.
To get UA Connect and begin the process, visit:
uaudio.com/downloads/uad
If you've already registered your Apollo and simply want to update to a newer version of
UAD software, use UA Connect.
