How do I connect and configure MIDI devices with the Apollo x8p Heritage Edition?
Connect your MIDI devices to your computer via USB or MIDI cables. Within your DAW, select the Apollo x8p as your MIDI input/output device in your MIDI settings to route MIDI data to and from your connected instruments.
How do I save and manage UAD plugin presets within the Apollo x8p's Console application?
In the Console application, after adjusting your plugin settings, click the preset name at the top of the plugin window and select 'Save As...' to create a new preset, or 'Save' to overwrite the existing one; presets are stored within the Console application and are specific to each UAD plugin.
What's the basic workflow for recording vocals through the Apollo x8p using Unison preamps?
Connect your microphone to an x8p preamp input, select the appropriate Unison preamp plugin in the Console application's preamp slot for that channel, adjust gain using the physical preamp knob, and monitor the signal in your DAW for recording.
Why am I not hearing any audio output from my Apollo x8p, even though it's connected and powered on?
Check the Console application's I/O Matrix to ensure your DAW outputs are correctly routed to the Apollo x8p's physical outputs, and verify that the monitor knob is turned up and not muted; also confirm your system audio output is set to the Apollo x8p.
How do the included UAD plugins in the Heritage Edition differ from the standard Apollo x8p, and can I expand my plugin library?
The Heritage Edition includes a specific bundle of UAD plugins known for their emulations of classic studio hardware, supplementing the 'Realtime Analog Classics Plus' bundle found on the standard x8p; you can purchase additional UAD plugins through the UA Connect software or the Universal Audio website to expand your library.
