Item Description
Listed 3 months ago
Antelope Audio Zen Q in excellent condition. This interface sounds great and includes their Synergy Core DSP plugins that run on the interface so you can mold your sound while tracking. This is the Thunderbolt version of the interface and an Apple Thunderbolt cable is included. This works great on my Mac Mini M4, I have not tried it on a Windows PC. This interface is a lot like the Apollo Twin X just half the price.
