scan pro audio presents... Carefully pieced together by our Studio experts here at Scan Pro Audio, this bundle comprised of Universal Audio's ‘Apollo Twin X QUAD’ audio interface and Audeze’s multi-award winning ‘LCD-X’, will deliver an audio production experience unlike any you’ve had before.

Apollo X4 Heritage Edition has all the benefits of the acclaimed Apollo Twin X, including elite-class A/D and D/A conversion, QUAD Core realtime UAD plug-in processing, Unison-enabled mic preamps, and full LUNA Recording System integration. And it goes a step further, with a software suite of 5 award-winning UAD plug-in titles, featuring Collections from Teletronix,® Pultec,® and UA.

The Apollo X4 delivers unparalleled A/D and D/A conversion, four Unison-enabled preamps, and Quad core real-time UAD plug-in processing, all in one aesthetic desktop Thunderbolt 3 audio interface for Mac or Windows. Built utilising UA's 60 year heritage of audio design and craftsmanship, the Apollo X4 out performs everything in its class with ease, with 127 dB D/A dynamic range and a bundle of UAD emulation plugins acclaimed the world over, ensuring you have everything you need at hand for your analogue studio, right from the comfort of your desktop.

A large number of the world’s most famous and well loved albums have been mixed/mastered with Audeze headphones. Albums from Ed Sheeran, Adele, John Mayer, Kanye West, Lorde, Imagine Dragons and a host of others. What’s more amazing is that the majority of these engineers who worked on the aforementioned albums didn’t use headphones whilst working before hearing the incredible performance of Audeze headphones.

The LCD-X is a perfect partner for the Apollo X range, as the upgraded headphone amp from the previous generation Apollo’s brings out the best in the LCD-X, not requiring a separate headphone amplifier to get superb detail and accuracy, unlike 99% of other “professional” interfaces.

These premium Heritage Edition titles are in addition to Apollo Twin X4's included "Realtime Analog Classics Plus" bundle, giving you the most accurate library of classic Analogue emulations included with any professional audio interface.

Elite-Class A/D and D/A ConversionWith thousands of hit songs and hundreds of Grammy-winning albums under their belt, Apollo interfaces are used to create exceptional-sounding records every day. To improve upon the previous generation, UA engineers redesigned the Apollo X4’s audio conversion to deliver a striking 127 dB dynamic range and -117 dB THD+N, giving it a spacious, organic sound that easily rivals dedicated high-end converters costing much more.

Get the Sound of Neve, Helios, API, Manley & More Apollo x4 comes with four Unison-enabled preamps allowing you to track through exacting mic preamp emulations from Neve, Helios, API, Manley, UA and many more. Unison Technology captures the tones of these lauded valve and solid-state mic preamps - including their input impedance, gain stage sweet spots, right down to the component level circuit behaviours of their original hardware.

Taking inspiration from Unison's proprietary hardware-software integration, Apollo X4 allows you to record at close to zero latency via emulations like the included UA 610-B valve preamp and EQ for genuine analogue sound which is unmatched by other interfaces in its peer group. Unison technology can be found also in Apollo X4’s front-panel Hi-Z instrument input, providing accurate impedance and gain matching for guitar and bass amp models from Fender, Marshall, Ampeg and many more.

LUNA Recording SystemAll Apollo X series interfaces work with all major DAWs, including Logic Pro, Ableton Live, Pro Tools, and more. But they become a fully integrated recording system with LUNA, a powerful recording application for Mac from Universal Audio. Bolstered by Accelerated Realtime Monitoring,™ LUNA lets you track and mix in an intuitive single-window workflow with unlimited track counts, with full AU support and access to exclusive LUNA Instruments and Extensions.

Music Creators Package The Audeze LCD-X creator pack has been improved with the addition of a lightweight travel case. This is more practical for many travellers than the larger waterproof travel case. It is compact and enables you to put it inside a suitcase or cabin bag more easily, rather than it having to be a piece of luggage on it's own.

Since it's release, the LCD-X has become THE headphone for Professional Audio users. Many of the world's biggest records have been mixed and/or mastered with Audeze headphones. These includes songs from Ed Sheeran, Adele, John Mayer, Kanye West, Lorde, Imagine Dragons and many others. Perhaps more amazing is the fact these engineers and producers never used headphones in their workflow until they heard Audeze!.

After consulting many producers and mix engineers using LCD range headphones, we realised that the majority kept them in the studio, where they were used with the single ended (quarter inch jack) cable. This isnt a downgrade of the LCD-X itself, which still comes with a premium braided quater inch cable, but the flightcase and balanced cable are now not included as standard, but of course can be bought separately if required.

If you do have a dedicated DAC / Amp (such as the excellent iFi 'Zen Dac', Lake People 'G109P' or RME 'ADI-2 DAC'), then you can unlock another level of detail and precision. The reference-level LCD-X is an exciting addition to the LCD planar magnetic headphone collection. The LCD-X features a newly-developed and processed transducer made of a thinner and lighter alternative material.

The Engineers Best Friend Audeze had one goal in mind when designing the LCD range of headphones "To recreate sound precisely as the artist intended". The LCD range produce incredibly accurate and detailed sound, which has won Audeze many awards in the Hi-Fi world and gained many professional studio users including Ken Andrews (Paramore, Nine Inch Nails), Rob Swire (Pendulum / Knife Party), Richie Hawtin, Andy C & Noisia, as well as many of the world's leading mastering engineers.

• Audeze Headphones utilise Planar Magnetic technology which overcome many of the limitations of cone-based drivers.

• Unlike conventional cones which are attached to a voice coil with a single magnet, Planar Magnetic drivers have two sets of magnets, with the diaphragm etched onto a wafer-thin film in between them with one set of magnets pushing as one set pulls. As the magnetic field is distributed across the entire diaphragm, it can move faster, reproducing the waves much more accurately and also reduces distortion. Other headphones and speakers often have square waves that look more like sawtooths, due to the cone not being able to move as fast as required.

• Planar magnetic drivers are also a lot more durable than dynamic drivers as only the diaphragm actually moves in the headphones, so the drivers wont degrade as they get older.

• Audeze made many changes to the basic planar magnetic design, with them being renowned for their extended low frequency response and exceptionally sharp transients.

Refined Aluminium Finish You'll be proud of how the LCD-X looks and sounds; it's imbued with sophisticated looks and beautiful anodized aluminium rings that are manufactured at Audeze's facility. The quality of the entire structure guarantees years of trouble-free listening. The cutting-edge designs and circuit technologies have created a breathtakingly beautiful sounding headphone.

These include the new "Fazor" waveguides in each earphone assembly. The Fazor elements improve clarity, focus and the already spectacular holographic imaging. The two Fazor elements are placed just outside the two magnet structures that surround the diaphragm in each capsule. They guide and manage the flow of sound around the magnets.
