Thanks everyone for the replies!

Got an Apollo Duo demo from SW today, $650. Free lighting cable.

Enough internal horsepower to run the Plugins from the interface, and then on behalf of the daw

2 eq, 2 comp, tube Pre, channel Strip, and Amp pack plugins included.

Can optical in 8 more channels

The types of tones I desire, Cheaper than most options. 2x UA's warranty.

Stoked!

Cool. It's kinda the industry standard these days. Loads have gone to a hybrid or in the box workflow.

Thanks, and exactly! I have a loft, this is half my living space downstairs. Even a modest rack setup would be clumsy and space consumptive at best. I can keep it all on the desk. (My cabs/heads/guitars are hoarding the rest of the space).
