Pro Tip: Push the instruments into the summing mixer at a higher level until you start hearing a subtle harmonic distortion. This will add warmth, depth, and better separation to your mix, giving it a more professional, polished sound—just like a finished record. The headroom provides a safe place for transients, ensuring clarity and punch in your mix.

Maximize the full potential of your UAD Apollo Unison Preamps with a Real Analog Summing Mixer. Route your mix audio tracks to the Summing Mixer, and then record back the final analog mix using the legendary Helios, Neve 1073, Manley, Century Tube, Avalon, Luna API, SSL, UA610 and Avalon Preamp emulations to get the Real Analog-Console 3D wide sound character.

The summing box is compatible with various interfaces such as Steinberg UR824, Focusrite, PreSonus, Universal Audio, MOTU, RME, Apogee, Audient, Behringer, Native Instruments, Solid State Logic (SSL), Tascam, Avid, and many others.

Technical details:

Input: 8 ch TRS 1/4″ Balanced
Output: 2x Stereo / 4x TRS Balanced L/R Main/Monitor (common)
1 x Stereo or 2 Mono Input Switch on 1/2 stereo input. Read the documentation or watch on YouTube.

7/8 OUT SWITCH: Signal routed directly to Master Outputs – Direct Monitoring – Input to Output – Monitor Switch
You don’t have to unplug. In “everyday” use, the UAD monitor out is routed directly to the summing mixer (for pre-production, programming, editing, etc). Instead, switch 7/8 to OUT mode, and you’ll have direct input to output routing.

  • 7/8 DOWN = Regular summing mixer mode

  • 7/8 UP (OUT) = 7/8 inputs straight to master outputs

  • Summing 1-6 inputs are still active (mute from DAW)

  • Equivalent signal on both stereo outputs

If you need exclusive (1-6 mute / 7/8 active) monitoring, please ask for the Full Bypass feature…

DIR (direct) Input to Output or Input to Mixer switch: Direct Monitoring – Input to Output – Monitor switch. You don’t have to unplug your interface monitor in everyday work; you can keep it connected at all times to the summing mixer.
Down Position: corresponds to the regular summing mixer input (analog mixing)
Up Position: directs the signal straight to the Master Outputs without any reduction in signal volume, as it is sent to the input.

Input 7/8 is the default UAD Apollo x6. If you want a different option, please select from the drop-down menu.

Analog Summing Mixer Connect Monitor Explain diagram

STM – Stereo to Mono Switch: It provides an extra stable Real Analog Mono Base for your mix (on monos like Kick/Bass/MainVox/Snare and so on), saving precious digital-to-analog (DA) channels (so you don’t waste stereo L/R for a mono instrument), and offers superior separation and 3D depth for the rest of your stereo instruments. This feature turns L/R inputs ‘COMBINED’ (two hard-panned L/R inputs) into an absolutely centered mono signal (1 x stereo to 2 mono). For example, ‘SNARE’ on channel 1 (left), ‘KICK’ on channel 2 (right). Mono instruments in the DAW sequencer (Steinberg cubase, pro tools, flstudio, reaper, logic pro, Ableton etc.) should place the kick hard left, the bass hard on the right, and so on. Stereo instruments: If you don’t use mono channels in your mix, simply turn down all the mono switches, and you’ll have a fully stereo analog summing mixer with panning options available from the DAW.

    I am a happy with this summing box

    Yo, this Real Analog Summing Mixer took my UAD Apollo Unison Preamps to the next level. I routed all my mix audio tracks through it, and when I recorded the final mix back, it sounded insane. I’m talking that real analog-console vibe – the 3D wide sound you only get from those classic preamp emulations like Helios, Neve 1073, Manley, Avalon, SSL, and all that goodness. It’s a game changer for my mixes. If you want that vintage warmth and clarity, this is the real deal. Highly recommend!
