Product Description
The Antelope Audio Orion Studio Synergy Core is a major step forward for Antelope's workhorse Orion series of audio interfaces, designed to be the heart of your professional recording studio for years to come. Hot-rodded with Antelope Audio's future-proof Synergy Core FX processing platform, this updated Orion Studio is loaded with 2 FPGA and 6 DSP chips working in harmony to run Antelope's vast library of effects plug-ins. You get Antelope's top FX bundled with the hardware, including spot-on models of vintage analog gear and a killer collection of guitar amp and cabinet emulations. With Thunderbolt 3 and USB connectivity, 12 of Antelope's discrete microphone preamps, extensive analog and digital I/O, upgraded digital-to-analog converters with dynamic range up to 130 dB, and unprecedented FX processing power on board, the Orion Studio Synergy Core is a well-oiled machine -- up for any recording or mixing project your studio throws its way.
SRC - EXTENSIVE FUNCTIONALITY MEETS INTUITIVE DESIGN
Included in this bundle is the Antelope Audio SRC. The SRC is a hardware remote controller that provides tactile control over vital stereo monitoring parameters of supported Antelope Audio interfaces. The SRC is a dedicated hardware remote control designed to enhance stereo and 2.1 monitoring workflows with the Orion Studio SC interface. With a sleek, intuitive design and color display, it provides effortless access to key monitoring functions, enabling precise calibration and seamless switching between outputs.
ROOM ANALYSIS AND CORRECTION TOOL
Measure your speakers and room acoustics, then generate corrective EQ curves tailored specifically to your listening environment. These corrections are automatically applied to the device through the Control Panel and processed by the ultra-fast FPGA processors with sub-millisecond latency.
DUAL STREAM MODE
Built-in redundancy adds a backup connection for critical recording sessions, enabling simultaneous playback and recording on two computers via USB and Thunderbolt. This feature also unlocks endless possibilities for collaboration, streaming, and complex production setups.
SYNERGY CORE: FPGA + DSP = FUTURE-PROOF EFFECTS PROCESSING
With 6 DSP + 2 FPGA chips under the hood running a massive effects library by Antelope Audio and platform partners, the Orion Studio Synergy Core frees up your host Mac or PC to record and play back more tracks strapped with CPU-hungry virtual instruments and effects. Take on big projects, build intricate mixes, reduce latency, shorten buffer size, and keep your system stable -- all thanks to Antelope's state-of-the-art Synergy Core dedicated FX processors. With massive processing potential on board, this Orion can grow with your studio.
THUNDERBOLT 3 AND USB CONNECTIVITY
A cross-platform audio interface for Windows or Mac, Orion Studio Synergy Core offers both USB and Thunderbolt 3 connection to your DAW host computer. You can even power/charge your MacBook from the Orion Studio Synergy Core.
130 DB DYNAMIC RANGE D/A FOR CRITICAL LISTENING
Why trust your projects to anything less than the best D/A converters? The Antelope Orion Studio Synergy Core delivers 130 dB dynamic range on both pairs of monitor outs -- which can run simultaneously, or in A/B mode.
12 DISCRETE MICROPHONE PREAMPS AND DIRECT INPUTS
The Orion Studio Synergy Core gives you 12 mic preamps based on Antelope's ultra-linear Discrete MP standalone preamplifier, with 75 dB of pristine gain. Recording line-level signals? The Orion Studio Synergy Core's Direct In hard-bypasses the mic pres, directly sailing into the A/D converters with 124 dB dynamic range. Get ready to hear the truth.
DIGITAL PATCH BAY FOR PRO STUDIOS
Send audio anywhere you need it with the digital patch bay and latency-free mixer in your Orion Studio Synergy Core's software control panel. As the "brain" of your pro studio, this interface gives you robust, flexible tools for routing and monitoring.
EMBRACE THE FUTURE OF AUDIO PRODUCTION – IMMERSIVE
Orion Studio Synergy Core is now compatible with the latest Antelope Audio Atmos-ready surround and immersive audio monitoring system. The integrated platform supports over 23 audio formats from stereo to Dolby Atmos 9.1.6 and offers precise speaker and room calibration tools. The system’s intuitive monitoring controls and fast preset recall functionality are designed to increase productivity. The functionality is unlocked by purchasing the MRC hardware controller - a physical extension of the system, which provides streamlined and tactile controls that are key for effortless yet advanced monitoring.
ANTELOPE'S 4TH GENERATION ACOUSTICALLY FOCUSED CLOCKING
Antelope Audio is renowned for building rock-solid digital audio clocks found in top recording studios and broadcast facilities around the globe. The Orion Studio Synergy Core wouldn't be an Antelope interface if it didn't deliver world-class clocking. With Word Clock I/O, the Orion Studio Synergy Core syncs up your studio with Antelope's 4th Generation Acoustically Focused Clocking, employing 64-bit DDS to keep your audio in lockstep at up to 192 kHz.
