Apollo Solo Manual Unison 184
Console Indications
Gain Level
When Unison is active in the channel, the color of Console’s
preamp gain level display (the colored ring around the gain
knob), and the channel selection dot on the gain knob, is
orange instead of green.
If the Unison plug-in is inactive (either via the insert disable
switch or the power switch in the plug-in interface), the color reverts to green.
Note: Console’s preamp gain control only adjusts the first gain stage of any Unison
preamp plug-in, even when Apollo Solo is in Gain Stage Mode.
Gain Value Indicator
The preamp gain value display (the text value under the
knob) always shows the current value of the main parameter
within the Unison plug-in.
Additionally, the display is adapted to the parameter value
and range of the first gain stage within the plug-in. For
example, when the UA 610-A Tube Preamp plug-in is in the Unison insert, this field
displays either “HI” or “LOW” because these are the only two values available in the first
gain stage of this plug-in.
Note: This display shows “---” if the Apollo Solo hardware is not detected when a
Unison plug-in is in the Unison insert and the insert is not disabled.
