Producing your own music has become the contemporary equivalent of composing poetry in earlier times. With today's technology, recording audio is as easy as picking up a pen and capturing your feelings on paper. However, unlike writing poetry, making music is mostly a collective affair. A simple two or four channel audio interface is no longer sufficient. That cool creative jamming with friends requires eight channels or so, packed in a portable device that is easy to bring and carry in a backpack and doesn't take up much space.
Maximum Mic/Line Channels
Antelope is showing off a bit again. After all, the Zen Q Synergy Core is not just a portable USB audio interface, but also a pro piece that perfectly provides everything you need for a small band. It has 2 switchable Mic/Line and 2 more Hi-Z/Line inputs. Two reamp outputs and a talkback function put it in the spotlight in the field of portable audio interfaces.
Lowest latency
The Zen Q Synergy Core borrows powerful FPGA chips from Antelope Audio's best-selling studio pieces. This technology provides massive parallel processing power as well as the lowest latency on the market. Studio performance and unique mobility meet in the Zen Q Synergy Core like no other device. It's no longer just a small mobile device for music beginners, but a full-fledged tool for the music business.
Realistic Vintage FX
The custom FPGA is a solid platform for creating multi-track mixes with zero latency and the ability to layer effects in exciting ways. Forget buying expensive plugins, Zen Q Synergy Core offers something better. Antelope provides its own polished hardware guitar amp&cab simulation, classic Pultec EQ emulation and extremely versatile AuraVerb reverb. 37 studio-quality effects give you unparalleled fidelity and sonic realism, matched only by the sound and behavior of the original legendary hardware devices.
37 free studio-quality plug-ins
Zen Q Synergy Core includes 37 high-performance plug-ins completely free of charge, such as. dynamic processors (Stay-Levin, Power Gate, Power Ex, POWERFFC, X903, VCA-160, FET-A76), equalizers (Clear Q, VEQ-HLF, VEQ-1A,VMEQ-5), microphone preamps (BA-31, GYRAF GYRATEC IX), guitar/bass and speaker simulations (SHRED GUITAR CABINET, SHRED GUITAR AMPS), AURAVERB digital reverb and many more.
Advanced controls
Control of the Zen Q Synergy Core is literally at your fingertips via the intuitive touchscreen display. The software control panel, compatible with Mac OS X and Windows, follows Antelope Audio's innovative networking concept. You can manage all Zen Q Synergy Core parameters from multiple computers on the same network. Plus, thanks to iOS and Android OS compatibility, you can manage all functions from your smartphone or tablet?
Extended connectivity
While other portable interfaces have to make do with decent I/O or DSP effects, Zen Q Synergy Core gives you both, and more than enough of them. Two Mic/Line inputs, 2 Hi-Z/Line inputs, 4 analog outputs, digital ADAT & S/PDIF, or two independent headphone amplifiers. The FPGA drives the USB interface, making it not only very fast, but also compatible with any DAW.
