Hey cool video, here's a little explanation I hope it's understandable. Warm greetings from Germany! Since you have inserted an XLR plug into a combination socket, the Apollo recognizes that the connection is on all 3 pins of the XLR and sets the MIC level. If you insert a TRS cable instead of the XLR, it would recognize the three contacts in the TRS. With an XLR it always depends on the MIC level and with a TRS, Line. This is for all interfaces with a combination socket the same.

Thanks, I've been trying to figure this out with my compressor and Apollo Twin, but I'm using FL Studio.

If yu put XLR cables u force it through the Preamp, thats why u can choose only MIC.

How do you route the mix to your speakers? I use the four apollo x4 outputs for my two monitor systems? I have no idea how to keep my both monitor systems running when all four outputs are used for outboard gear. Thanks for short answer. (Great video!!!) Cheers from Ibiza.

Cheers! Apollo x4 has 2 dedicated outputs for monitors, 4 mic/line inputs & 4 line outs... so just use the monitor outputs for your monitors.

Hey how do you use it for your daw for mastering or limiting
@AdamBards3 ай бұрын
You need to "print" the output into a track. There are videos on YT explaining it for each DAW, I might do one for the Logic as well

How would I plug mic in if I use xlr
@AdamBards4 ай бұрын
The mic goes into the MIC/LINE inputs on the Apollo. If you're using both outboard gear and a microphone, then you might need an audio interface with more inputs. Or maybe your outboard gear is a preamp or a compressor? Then you plug the microphone into the outboard gear inputs and the outboard gear outputs into the audio interface inputs.

Why did u bought the clone? There's alot of plugins (from UAD, Arturia, Overload) that can replace that piece of gear. If i were you I'd invest on monitors.

I wanted to dip my toes into the world of outboard gear and this was very good price/value option
