Couldn’t Wait To Get My Hands On One
The Quad Satellite put the finishing touch on phase one of my project studio upgrade. I can now comfortably run as many UAD plugins as I want and not have to worry about DSP choke down. The folks at UAD are wonderful at understanding how home studio enthusiasts build out and are super duper accommodating! Cheers to UAD now it’s time get to work.

UAD Thunderbolt Quad Satellite
I Received my Quad Satellite as a promo for purchasing the new Apollo 8 Quad unit back in early December 2015.
I run at 192 KHz and the Satellite has been a godsend in as much as I don not run out of memory or processor power during mixdown.
The UA quality is second to none. There no going back to any other interface, sold my RME and Burl. The A/D/D/A converters are top notch. Great work on UA's part.

Manley Passive's EVERYWHERE
This does exactly what it's supposed to. With the Apollo 8 Quad and Satellite Quad I'm packing some serious processing. Running lots of the DSP intensive plugins at a high sample rate and it's solid as a rock. Couldn't be happier with this setup!

simple and effective.
It's great to have the extra UAD Power!

Great addition to my Apollo 8 Quad
With a total of 8 DSP chips at my disposal between my Apollo and my Quad Satellite, I feel like I can competently take on just about any production task in my home studio. We live in amazing times with access to an astonishing array of tools. Thanks UAD.

More Horsepower!
The incentive for me to buy the Apollo 16 was the fact that I got a free Quad Satellite and I'm glad I made the plunge. Combined, I have 8 cores of UAD goodness and it's more than enough to do everything I want with my mixes and recordings.

Thanks UA!!!!
Received my free Quad Satellite and tied it to my new Apollo 8p and it works like a charm!
As other reviewers have said, what a difference it made with the DSP, and now can paint
with so many more different plugins. My last DAW upgrade.. finally no latency issues!!
What a blessing!! Thanks UA team!!
I also love the ease of buying and downloading the plugins from UA, so easy.
Constantly dealing with the waves plugin download process. (Love their plugins too and prices)
If you have a slow connection, which a lot of us have, it's just a hassle downloading
their plugins.
Keep up the GREAT work UA team! How about a TC 2290 rack plugin or a
Hi Watt DR100 or a Soldano Slo 100 plugin?
Thanks again UA for the free Satellite!!

Very impressive
Got it as a promo. Integrates nicely into my system. All thunderbolt setup. Very happy with this gear. I now own 2 of them. Even better that the second one was free. Thank you UA you solved my mix limitations.

Faithful
Been a user since the firewire version came out. I just love that its DSP, and the plugins feels more "real" than the usual ones, with exceptions of course. But overall it's my go-to gear to use. complements what I do very well.
Thank you for the Satellite!

Quite satisfied with the satellite.
I don't believe one can operate a fully functioning environment with just a few max'd out plug-ins unless it's a soloist, straight up simple mix. For me I require multiple instances with varying verbs, the studio environment plug-ins, the two bus out requirements..it adds up to needing more processors and the OCTO more than helped the smoothness of each plug-in's operation in the context of a dense mix..Thank you.

UAD-2 Satellite Thunderbolt FREE Promo!
First, I want to thank Universal Audio for the FREE UAD-2 Thunderbolt QUAD. And as an additional bonus, they gave me $100 credit towards a plugin purchase, just for registering the UAD-2! I didn't realize the box has some weight to it (almost 6lbs), so it will set nicely on my studio table! This, along with my Apollo 8 DUO, is a major upgrade for my home studio! Not having to worry about resoucres being taxed on my DAW, will give me peace of mind, and better mixes! Looking forward to purchasing more UA products in the future! I'm very impressed with what I have so far. I hope you guys have more promos like this for the 2016 Christmas season! I will write more reviews as I use my units more. Peace and blessings!

UAD Magic Box Really is A Game Changer
The UAD Sattelite 2 Really is A Game Changer!
The ability to run a full complement of UAD plug-ins is quickly transforming the way I mix- but more than that, advancing the way I select tones while composing and arranging, since the greater processing power enables more experimentation with the way various preamps and EQs etc enhance the instrument sounds.
Eventually I'll have three of these boxes, love that it's so portable as well!
Well done UAD!

All the power I need
I love my TB OCTO Satellite. Kinda sucks that it does not help on your Apollo inputs, but it is great when mix time comes. 99% of my time is spent tracking, but this Satellite makes the1% of mixing very nice.

SO MUCH POWER
Now my spaceship can achieve WARP SPEED. I can blow up any enemy in my way. In all seriousness..i have 2 octo's now..and it is AMAZING to be able to strap UA plugs on at will with no concern for DSP. If you can afford...do it

UAD Satellite
Got my promotional Satellite FREE when I purchased an Apollo 8 Quad November 2015...I was included in the promotion even though i was outside of the catchment date!
Having the Apollo Quad already, i just plugged and played (after downloading the software).
The additional DSP has enabled me to use heaps of plugins undeterred by processor overload fear.
The plugins themselves are amazing and i can't rate Universal Audio enough.
