Antelope audio Zenith 2

Interfaz Antelope comprada = Cosmos + Bitwig gratis. Más información.

The Zenith 2 is a compact audio interface designed for musicians, producers, streamers, and content creators who want professional sound without investing in a complex studio setup. Portable, USB-C powered, and driverless compatible with Mac, Windows, iOS, and Android, it integrates easily into a home studio, streaming setup, or mobile environment.

It combines high-end AD/DA conversion with up to 123 dB of dynamic range, two 6-transistor discrete mic preamps with 75 dB of gain, an integrated DSP engine, and a full loopback function. The result: clear, detailed, and controlled sound right out of the box, whether recording vocals, guitar, instruments, or streaming live.

Professional Sound Right Out of the Box

Thanks to its conversion with up to 123 dB of dynamic range, the Zenith 2 captures more detail, depth, and transients. This allows for a more precise sonic foundation with less correction needed during mixing. This is a real step forward compared to entry-level interfaces, especially for vocals, acoustic instruments, and demanding productions.

Powerful and Transparent Discrete Preamps

The two mic preamps utilize a 6-transistor discrete design, inspired by professional console circuits and derived from the architecture used in high-end Antelope studio interfaces, such as the Orion Studio. With 75 dB of self-gain, they can efficiently drive demanding dynamic microphones, often used in podcasting, streaming, or voice-over work, without the need for an external booster.

The result is a faithful, transparent, and low-noise signal, ideal for accurately capturing vocals and instruments.

Integrated DSP with Studio, Guitar, and Voice Modes

The Zenith 2 incorporates a DSP engine that delivers real-time sound processing with near-zero latency. The included effects allow you to process the signal directly during recording, monitoring, or streaming.

Features include:

Tube-Opto Compressor
Sky EQ
De-Esser
Full guitar rig with amp modeling
Dedicated Studio, Guitar, and Voice modes
Smart Presets for quick, ready-to-record or broadcast sound
Simple settings for speed, as well as more advanced controls for precisely sculpting your tone

Whether you're recording vocals, guitar, a podcast, or a live stream, DSP processing delivers a cleaner, fuller, and more professional sound right from the source.

Simplified Loopback and Streaming

The built-in loopback function makes it easy to mix the microphone, music, and computer audio. This is essential for Twitch and YouTube live streams, podcasts, tutorials, or content creation sessions.

The Zenith 2 also features a built-in monitor mixer for each analog output, including a loopback mixer. This allows you to more easily manage the audio sources sent to your outputs, headphones, or broadcast.

Comprehensive Connectivity and Mobile Use

Powered via USB-C, the Zenith 2 operates in class-compliant mode, requiring no driver installation. It is compatible with Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android.

It features two Hi-Z combo mic/line/instrument inputs, 48V phantom power, two TRS monitor outputs, two independent headphone outputs, MIDI I/O, and a USB-C connection. The headphone outputs are designed to easily drive demanding headphones, including high-impedance models.

Software Bundle Included

The Zenith 2 comes with a comprehensive software bundle including:

3 months of access to 75+ Antelope Cosmos plugins
Bitwig Studio Essentials
Lifeline Lite bundle by Excite Audio

This bundle allows you to quickly start recording, producing, mixing, and experimenting with creative tools right out of the box.
