Everything I knew it would be and much more!
I have been waiting and reviewing many many systems to replace my PC/ACID 7 combination which I have used for to many years. Well the research and waiting was worth it. The Arrow, iMac and (free) LUNA is all you need for a solo artist system. Combine them with Toontrack midi drums and keys and you have a sound that is unbeatable. I could not be happier. One more thing I have not run out of DSP yet.

Amazing!!!
I just went through the reviews and people who don’t like this little monster are clearly confused. Arrow is absolutely amazing and that’s a fact! I’ve been using it for over a year now and my vocals have never sounded better. I recommend using one of the unison preamps like century tube or Avalon it makes a huge difference... and also, sometimes it’s what you know and not what you have.

Best musical move I made
This piece of equipment is awesome! I’m so glad to finally touch the UA world. This brand is amazing on so much levels. With my Arrow, I got acces to Luna and I can record perfect sounding vocals even with stock plug-ins.
I’m so happy I finally invested in this. And also a new computer that had thunderbolt 3 connections............. Broke but happy!

A lovely introduction to the UA world
I really love this audio interface! I am coming from using a 10-year old Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 and an ODAC headphone amp. The total price of these is equivalent to the arrow, however I feel like the arrow outperforms both and so much more! The conversion is great, the real-time tracking is magical, and I loved the UAD plugins so much that I got the Ultimate 8 within a week after receiving the arrow. Now I need more DSP ;)

Amazing portable interface
This has been an incredible investment for my portable studio, as it doesn’t require an electrical outlet for power. I can plug it into the laptop directly. Sound quality is great.

I finally entered the UAD world
For many years I've been fighting the urge to enter the UAD world. Being an old Pro Tools guy I was tired of having software linked to hardwire. Hell, I still have my Digi002 and Mbox 2 mini as they served me well. However, I needed a new mobile interface because I'm going to be traveling for most of the next year. The Arrow has just enough DSP for me. Quickly bought the SSL 4000 G Bus, The Ampex ATR, The Voice of God and the Oxide Tape.

Sounds great - love it!
The BEST. I love the sound big time. No latency and a lot of FANTASTIC plugin.
V. Balovnev
Thank you!:)
I delighted of sound and like how it looks. So definitely it worth it. More than that - I'm happy with plugins that I got with Arrow.
One cons for me - can't resolve how to mix sounds from both input channels for streaming in Skype calls. Perhaps, it can't be done without additional software.

THE ARROW
I really like the compact design of this interface. Why I did not rate higher, first, I believe it should have more than 1 processor and second, this unit, with no ventilation, gets extremely hot when I am using it.

Great Product
Unfortunately I haven't been able to test the full potential yet, but I can already say that the quality gain compared to my previous equipment is enormous. The device is fun and the software is well-engineered.

Amazing
I owned a lot of UA products before. I sold all of them over time due to changing ports. I hoped UA would release a USB driver for Mac but that hasn't happened so far. So I had to wait until I could by a new computer with Thunderbolt port. Long story short:
The Arrow is unbelievable. It sounds fantastic. Sure you only have a solo DSP, but if you're a bit clever, you can do a lot with it. Luckily the new DAW Luna doesn't seem to rely on the DSP chip on the Arrow when it comes to the Neve Summing Console. So you get that on top as well. Universal Audio makes the best products. Period.
Can't wait until UA will get into deep learning.

Great audio interface with an amazing sound!
I needed a new audio interface for mobile recordings and production. I knew that the AUD arrow was my choice since I'm very familiar with their hardware and plugins' quality. This is an amazing audio interface, I noticed the sound quality immediately when I plugged it to my MacBook and started recording. There are many great things about the Arrow, zero-latency while tracking and all the features in a very small but built like tank audio interface perfect for traveling or home set up.
I’m definitely very happy with my UA Arrow

An Upgrade from Outboard Gear
Easily the best audio gear purchase I've made in years. My set up until getting the Arrow had been Golden Age-73 into a Distressor into Mackie Onyx Blackjack. The quality of audio from the Unison plugins is comparable to outboard gear, and way more convenient. I'm always recording in different spaces so just packing up a laptop and the arrow is a game changer. My biggest concern before purchasing was the amount of plugins I can run with the single core. I've had no trouble tracking with two instances of the 610 pre while running the reverb in the aux send. While mixing, I can't put UA Plugins on every track, but I'm always running the La-2a on the lead vocal and the Pultec on the mix bus. Can't recommend the Arrow enough!

Sound quality is amazing.

Another level
This has just taken my sound to another level. Completely blown away with the quality, ease of set-up and use and with UAD plugins to get you started... I’ve already hit the custom shop hard!
I. Boivin-Flamand
Amazing!
A friend of mine suggested me to buy Arrow and i wasn’t really sure about it and honestly, i didn’t expect it to be that great! It’s amazing, no wonder why my sound engineer friend suggested me to buy it. I feel like i’m gonna stick with it for awhile.
