Extends Power
I have the Apollo Twin Solo which has proven to be a great asset but decided I wanted to purchase a few of the powered plugins that didn't come with the original purchase.
Quickly realized my limitations for running more than one powered plugin in either DAW or in the Apollo console depending on the choice of plugin and the amount of processor power required to run them.
Started having certain plugins in my chain disabled by the Apollo unit in order to support another because of the single processor.
I opted for the Satellite QUAD and it has been a good value for the dollar. I can now run powered plugins within my DAW and the Apollo Console without having such a tight restriction as to how many I can have.
I'd definitely suggest referencing the UAD instance chart https://help.uaudio.com/hc/en-us/articles/215262223
before purchase though to make certain you don't spend more than you actually need on these satellite units. For me, the QUAD works perfect.

Agreed - No more DSP worries... for now
I had a chance to activate to Satellite Octo and test out the additional DSP with first, just the Apollo Twin, then with just the 8p. If it weren’t for the added DSP, I’d probably forget that it was physically connected to my setups.

Magnificent!

Excellent

Better than expected
I am a Reason 10 user and I was worried the VSTs wouldn't load onto the Satellite when utilized in my sessions. I was very wrong. Integration for everything except the Culture Vulture has been everything I expected for offloading DSP while mixing.

Drops the workload
This unit really helps keeps the processing workload under control. I use a MacBook Pro with an Apollo 8P and the UAD-2 Satellite dropped the DSP usage from the computer down significantly.

All that I need
I am so happy, I don’t have to worry anymore about computers processor or commit everytime to save processor power, all I need to focus on is mixing .......THANKS UAD

Extra Power For UAD Plugins
Got this free with the purchase of the Apollo 8. The extra DSP power for UAD plugins is well needed.

I need an 16 core rack version
I like it but even 8 core and another 4 from my apollo is almost not enough.
Please release a 16 core 1u rack version.
Thanks

More cores...
This is my 3rd satellite! I really don't have to worry about cpu or processing power, just great!

Does what it says
Got this box with the promo deal when I bought my Apollo interface. Now I can run loads of UAD plugins, which, I guess, is a good thing :)

Amazing
UAD is a must for producer that know the quality of analog rack
J. Escalera Adan
very good!
The satellite installs easily, has released 6% of processing, very happy with this. ;)
C. Welker
Solid!
The boost the satellite gave my setup was impressive, easy to setup and I was off and running.

super boost
Great gear
Never do nothing without it

Parfait
Excellente puissance de calcul pour un bon nombre de plugin.
J’utilise le plugin Studer sur pratiquement chaque piste/groupe d’une session et il lui reste encore du DSP. Il est couplé à un satellite quad et une 2 Apollo 8p.
Bref un bonheur !

UAD-2-Satellite works as expected - (One exception)
Satellite was very easy to set up . I connected it to my Apollo Twin to Share Twin DSP while mixing. Works like a Champ. The exception- If you want this product in order to expand the Apollo twin DSP for tracking using plugins , it will not work . This is a "Mixing only" product. It allows you to mix your tracks using UAD plugins from the DAW . If needing to use your UAD plugins while mixing is your goal this will be the ticket. If you are simply trying to expand your Apollo in order to have more tracking DSP then you may need to consider another Twin or other product.

Definitely a lifesaver!
The fact that I can get more DSP on this and make my sessions run smoother is truly a lifesaver! Thanks UA!
