Documentation Overview
Documentation for all Apollo components is extensive, so instructions are separated by
areas of functionality, as detailed below. All documentation is copied to the computer
during software installation (documentation can also be downloaded from our website).
All manuals are in PDF format. PDF files require a free PDF reader application such as
Adobe Reader (Windows) or Preview (included with Mac OS X). After software installa-
tion, all Apollo documentation can be found on the startup drive at the following location
locations:
Mac OS X
• /Applications/Universal Audio
Windows 7
• Start>All Programs>UAD Powered Plug-Ins>Documentation
Tip: Documentation can also be found by clicking the Documentation button in
the Help panel within the UAD Meter & Control Panel application.
