The Antelope recipe for great-sounding audio
When it comes right down to it, all the flexibility in the world doesn't do you any good if audio quality is lacking. Fortunately, Zen Studio's Acoustically Focused Clocking delivers analog-sounding audio conversion with clean transients, stunning clarity, and detail that let you really hear the attack of instruments and vocals. Antelope's renowned clocking and conversion technology, together with the custom USB technology in the Zen Studio, are the same as in the acclaimed 32-channel Orion interface — a fixture in world-class studios and the playback rigs of top artists.
Record a small band or complete drum kit
With its outstanding audio quality, flexibility, and portability, the Zen Studio is a natural for EDM producers who work in multiple studio facilities or challenging environments. Its generous I/O, 12 great-sounding mic pres, DSP EQ and dynamics, and onboard monitoring facilities make it a logical choice for tracking a small band or multi-mic drum setup. All the audio I/O is available simultaneously, for a total of 38 input and 32 output channels, plus 24 concurrent I/O channels via Zen Studio's 24-bit/192kHz custom USB.
The ideal interface for modern music production
