Warning message

Submissions for this form are closed.

Who wouldn't want to win this stunning Thunderbolt 3 audio interface plus every single Real Time FX processor (50+) in the Antelope Audio collection?  (Prize worth €4000$4000.)

Antelope Audio have been at the cutting edge of converter and interface design since their founding in 2004. From their home in Santa Monica, California, they’ve developed some of the most advanced A-D/D-A conversion and clocking technology in the world, and their current range of Zen hardware takes full advantage!

A Thunderbolt 3 device, the Zen Q Synergy Core crams technology from Antelope’s flagship interfaces into a sleek and stylish desktop format, with hands-on controls and a 2.8‑inch TFT LCD display.

The analogue I/O includes a pair of premium microphone inputs, two high-impedance instrument jacks, two stereo headphone outputs, a stereo monitor output and a second stereo line out pair. Plenty for recording a small ensemble, then, but with some serious expandability available thanks to its stereo S/PDIF I/O and multichannel ADAT input. All told, there are 14 inputs and 10 outputs on offer, making the Zen Q Synergy Core suitable for almost any recording scenario.

But it’s on the inside where things get really interesting. As well as boasting Antelope Audio’s acclaimed conversion and AFC (Acoustically Focused Clocking) technology, the Zen Q Synergy Core features Antelope’s unique combination of DSP and FPGA chips. This proprietary Synergy Core platform is able to host a huge collection of Antelope Audio Real Time FX, with zero latency and at no cost to your CPU usage.
