Unparalleled sound
Zen Q Synergy Core combines the technology of tomorrow with the electronics of a traditional console. Antelope Audio's signature sound quality comes from professional AN/NA conversion, ultra-linear discrete component preamps, and 64-bit AFC™ clock. Using the technologies at the heart of high-end interfaces like the Orion Studio and Galaxy 64 Synergy Core, audio engineers and artists can take their home productions to the next level.
Synergy Core effects to fuel your creativity
The interface comes with 37 analog-modeled effects like a studio full of the rarest equipment. The Synergy Core platform provides access to EQs, dynamics processors, guitar amps, reverb and more. More than 50 additional effects are available for purchase from the Antelope Audio software store.
Various Inputs/Outputs with plenty of room to grow
Zen Q offers two XLR jack combos giving you the flexibility to choose between mic, line and instrument inputs from our original discrete component preamps. For added flexibility, the front panel adds two additional line or instrument inputs. For monitoring, you have a stereo monitor output and a separate pair of line outputs for connecting other speakers or external peripheral equipment. While both are equipped with a mastering-quality D/A converter, a separate converter is dedicated to the headphone outputs. If your needs change, your simple desktop setup can be transformed using ADAT and SPDIF digital inputs.
Fast and efficient workflow
Enjoy the benefits of a Thunderbolt 3 interface with optimized drivers for streaming, recording, and playback with very low latency. With the included control software, take control of critical parameters, signal routing, effects, premixes, and listening levels. Apply Synergy Core effects without overloading your computer. All of these elements come together to enhance every aspect of your workflow.
The new desktop companion
Versatility is a key feature of Zen Q, making it the centerpiece of any studio or home office setup. Zen Q brings producers a superior workflow in a compact package. It can be used for outdoor recording, traveling musicians, or producers who prefer mobility. Zen Q is completely self-powered, so an external power supply is not required to create your next big project.
