The old guy learning curve
The old guy learning curve is rather steep. I've had this device for 3 weeks now and with a lot of help from UAD tech support folks, just got to record a track. Once all the right buttons were selected thing went smoothly. Initial setup was easy, but communication with the DAW was daunting. Playback was also difficult, until I was directed to select the correct button. Now I'm trying to figure out how I can hear what is going to be recorded, e.g., the guitar amp selected. I can only hear what it sounds like in playback. I want to know before hand what it sounds like. Do you feel me? As the kids say... There is a whole bunch of good stuff inside this little box. Accessing those sounds might not be that easy for somebody like me

Something Normal !
Hardware design is very good. Plug-ins are too much expensive. Hardware preamp is not Acceptable in compare some other Competitors like Appogee. Zero latency is pleasure ! Price to quality balance is not very acceptable as this is not a cheap Soundcard. Compatibility with all DAW is Excellent.

Great sound quality
The promise of running multiple plug ins without taxing my Macs processor was very appealing but in practice the DSP overload hits in with the channel strip and compression plug ins running on just a few channels. Enough heat comes from it to fry an egg and plug ins are expensive. Sound quality is excellent, console app is great and the almost Zero latency monitoring is very good obviously. Tech support has been good so far and it's a very robust unit. Does that justify the hefty price tag plus the cost of the plug ins? In my honest opinion it's overpriced you will have to decide yourself.

Latency
After comparing it to my UR22 and Focusrite, I felt the latency was the same. Also, i noticed audio jitters and trouble with disabling interface audio when recording guitars in my daw. Muting it solved the issue, but a lot goes into the console that I find tedious. I would like to mute the audio directly from the interface, without using the console interface on my computer. That is annoying. If there is a way, I have not figured it out, and that is a problem because it should be easy to figure out. The UR22 has a DAW knob so you can easily shut off the interface monitoring.
Obviously the lack of horsepower under the hood of the twin solo, vs cost is an issue as well. Reducing plugin cpu usage through frequent updates is important. Ultimately I returned my twin solo mk2. I wanted something better than Steven Slate, but after seeing the cost per plugin, it just did not make sense

Apollo Twin MkII
Apollo Twin MkII enjoying the flexibility saving a lot of time through the mixes a bit underwhelming at times feel like I need more functions.
