Universal Audio UAD-2 Satellite Thunderbolt Octo Core DSP Accelerator

The Universal Audio UAD-2 Satellite Thunderbolt Octo Core DSP Accelerator is the first DSP processor of its kind to offer high-speed connectivity and improved performance over Thunderbolt. This brand new next generation DSP Accelerator packs in eight SHARC processors allowing you to run multiple instances of processor intensive plug-ins without adding any load onto your CPU.

Thunderbolt connectivity increases the performance of your UAD system, with higher sample rates and far reduced plug-in latency when compared to previous generation FireWire accelerators.

 UAD-2 Satellite Thunderbolt Octo Core ships with UAD’s Analogue classic plug-in bundle and also the Analogue Classic Bundle which includes;

• A 610-B Preamp and EQ
• LA-2A Classic Audio Leveller
• 1176LN / 1176SE Classic Limiting Amplifier
• Fairchild 670 Tube Limiter
• Pultec Pro Equalizers
• UA Precision Enhancer Hz
• CS-1 Precision Channel
• RealVerb Pro plug-ins

UAD DSP systems can be scaled upwards to meet the demands of your project, Satellite Thunderbolt is compatible with existing UAD-2 PCie Cards and is also compatible with UA’s other Thunderbolt enabled audio interfaces such as Apollo Twin, Apollo and Apollo 16, which means adding extra power to your studio has never been easier.

As you would expect with any UAD DSP system, you immediately have access to plug-ins from manufacturers such as Ampex, Lexicon, Roland, Studer, Neve and more (sold separately)
