Just gonna jump in...
The two-tiered GUI, if I'm interpreting your question correctly, is becoming more common. My UA Apollo comes with a GUI called "Console." How much you have to interact with it depends on your setup. My setup minimizes the need to even open Console because I'm not using any of the mic pres on the Apollo. I have 8 channels of quality outboard pres so I'm using all the inputs as line-ins. If someone is using the UAD unison plugins, I think they have to use those in Console and that's what will track in their DAW.
When I decided to upgrade from my Apollo Silverface, I was considering the Apogee Symphony I/O Mk II 2x6 SE. On paper, I really did prefer it to the X series Apollo I eventually bought, but the thing that pushed me off the idea was the Symphony software. The UAD Console was the devil I knew; the Symphony software went on for pages and looked a bit intimidating.
