Product Information

Please note: this unit requires a Thunderbolt cable; one is not provided with the unit.

The UAD-2 Satellite Thunderbolt is a powerhouse DSP accelerator that gives Mac and Windows 10 users complete access to the world’s most detailed and authentic analog emulation plug-ins, available exclusively on the UAD platform.

Bolstered by next-generation connectivity, UAD-2 Satellite Thunderbolt 3 lets you run large professional mixes with the rich analog character of award-winning UA-developed plug-ins, including exclusive titles from Neve, Fender, Lexicon, Studer, and many more. Plus, it’s backward-compatible with Thunderbolt 1 and 2 UA devices.

From serious home recordists to multi-platinum mix engineers, UAD Powered Plug-Ins have been winning over audio professionals for more than 15 years. The reason is simple. No other plug-ins so faithfully capture the sound and behaviour of classic analog equipment — from rare compressors and equalizers, to vintage reverb processors and tape machines. The UAD library features over 100 plug-ins, co-developed with the biggest brands in audio. In developing UAD plug-ins, UA’s acclaimed engineers undertake intensive physical modelling of classic audio hardware — “rebuilding” vintage analog gear in the digital world, component by component. UAD plug-ins replicate the exact, sometimes quirky behaviour of the most prized analog hardware in existence, bringing you rich, three-dimensional sound and harmonics "in the box.”

This is the OCTO version of the UAD-2 Satellite Thunderbolt 3, meaning it includes eight SHARC processors. It can also be integrated alongside UAD-2 PCIe DSP Accelerator cards and Thunderbolt-equipped UA Audio Interfaces, including Arrow, Apollo Twin, and Apollo X interfaces for truly scalable mixing power.
