Antelope Orion Studio Rev 2017

In the fields of digital audio clocking, conversion and analog circuit design, the manufacturer Antelope Audio can offer more 20 years, you can also see that in this product. Antelope Audio's goal is to assist users in both recording studios and at home. High-definition sound to achieve.

Antelope Audios twenty years of experience in the industry has led to the development of the 4th generation of Acoustically Focused Clocking (AFC) jitter management algorithm, which ensures perfect clock generation for professional audio products. You know him well Antelope's well-known quarbased master clocks, with which even competitors clock their products. Antelope Audio believes that the best clock means the best sound.

Guitarists will love the powerful FPGA-based DSP engine. Including the fantastic AuraVerb Reverb, various modern and vintage hardware EQ and compressor models. Antelope's vintage effects were created in collaboration with Overloud Audio Tools one of the market leaders in the field of guitar software.

With a love for analog details and digital perfection, you can now enjoy not only Antelope's legendary guitar amplifiers and -box simulations, but also a vast amount of classic studio equipment. Through a unique sampling technique for vintage hardware modeling, Orion Studio offers the best selection of hardware-quality audio effects, including legendary EQ and compressor hardware and Antelope's own extremely versatile AuraVerb reverb.

Since its release in 2015, Orion Studio has undoubtedly become one of the stars of Antelope Audio's new series of ThunderboltTM and USB audio interfaces. Now it has even been improved once again. With its 12 Class-A Micro Preamplifiers it's the only device you need to record an entire band in a professional way. In 2017 Orion Studio was launched with new DA converters, raising the signal-to-noise ratio to the market-leading 124 dB, and thus an even lower latency is possible. Orion Studio convinces by its chic, carbon grey design and a variety of new features available through the user interface and FPGA technology.

Just like Zen Tour and Goliath, Orion Studio offers the full range of FPGA-powered vintage effects. This Interface's best-selling product is also the excellent AD/DA conversion and the world-renowned 64-bit jitter management technology with acoustically focused clocking (AFC).

Orion Studios secret weapon is the extremely powerful Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). Its mass parallel computing capabilities DSP chips that are used in comparable devices surpass them many times over. Thanks to smart algorithms, oversampling and of customized models, the FPGA can provide the lowest possible latency, enabling you to select up to four independent latency-free mixtures. These can be easily assigned to any output, including the two independent headphone outputs.

Orion Studio includes a constantly expanding selection of Antelope vintage effects. Thanks to the 5 new compressor types, it is possible to 32 compressors can now be opened simultaneously without losing any of the 40 EQs. This represents a great advantage compared to the DSP technology. All effects of Antelope Audio can be used for recording and monitoring and can be used without any problems. can be routed to a DAW for mixing.

Antelope Audio's own FPGA makes Orion Studio the No. 1 audio interface for professional guitarists. perfect platform for integrated vintage and modern guitar amp & speaker simulations. These in Collaboration with Overloud developed simulations offer precision and audio realism on a whole new level. This allows artists to experiment with different speaker configurations, microphone placements, and EQ settings. Antelope's innovative RealModel technology allows you to experience the true sound and behavior of classic analog devices. to reproduce it true to the original. Playing and recording guitars has never felt so real.

By introducing the ability to save the entire session, Orion Studio makes it easier than ever for you, to keep control of your studio work. All routing, monitoring and effect settings can now be changed quickly and easily. can be easily saved, loaded and shared. These can be easily exchanged between Antelope Audio studio devices. which drastically speeds up studio workflows for both sound engineers and musicians. The recently Added alternative matrix view to provide an alternative to classic Antelope drag and drop routing.

Within a window as many Orions can be used as can be connected to the new S/N selector. Moreover you can open several windows on one computer at the same time. Orion Studio allows you to create a comfortable Device control from multiple access points, including multiple computers within the same network.

An intuitive mobile app for iOS and Android offers even greater freedom by allowing the micro-preamplifiers of iOS and Android to be used in a wide range of applications. from a smartphone or tablet.

Orion Studio's FPGA-powered ThunderboltTM and custom USB guarantee the lowest latency sound on the market. The Mass parallel computing capabilities of the device enable fast simultaneous streaming of different audio channels and instantaneous Effect processing. Thanks to a range of digital and analog I/O combined with the flexible routing matrix, the device can be easily be connected to external equipment. Orion Studio offers two pairs of monitoring outputs, 16 analog outputs, 2 preamplifier outputs plus 16 channels of I/O via ADAT and 2 I/O channels via S/PDIF.
