PLEASE NOTE: It is not enough to have a USB-C port on your computer to be compatible with the UAD-2 Thunderbolt 3. Even if the Thunderbolt 3 port and USB-C are in the same format, the transmission protocol of the data is not the same.
How to distinguish a Thunderbolt 3 port from a USB-C port? The Thunderbolt 3 port is always placed under a lightning bolt icon. If you don't see one, your computer will not be UAD-2 Satellite compatible.

Parfait! C’est tout ce qu’il manque pour profiter pleinement des plugins UAD !! Je songe à un prendre un 2e, pour ne plus jamais recevoir de message concernant l’usage des DSP UAD!!! Étonnamment petit, il a trouvé rapidement une place sur mon bureau! Le branchement en série avec l’apollo fonctionne parfaitement (câble Apple)!!
