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.
