Antelope Zen Go with Edge Solo & BeyerDynamic Dt990 Pro Kit

Antelope Zen Go Synergy Core Desktop 4x8 USB Type-C Audio Interface

Take pro-grade conversion, clocking, and preamps anywhere you go with the Antelope Zen Go Synergy Core, a desktop 4x8 USB Type-C audio interface that puts premium sound quality in a convenient bus-powered format that's priced within reach of artists and musicians recording at home, mobile producers, and content creators. In addition to the revealing quality of its hardware, the Zen Go Synergy Core empowers you with 37 analog-modeled real-time effects, which are powered by the onboard DSP and FPGA chips to ensure ultralow latency and no burden on your computer's CPU.

Each of the two Antelope Discrete mic / line / Hi-Z preamps has its own phantom power and up to 65 dB of gain, so the interface is primed and ready for recording all sorts of microphones, instruments, or even line-level signals from outboard gear. Equipped with two independently adjustable headphone outputs and mirrored balanced/unbalanced monitor outs, the Zen Go Synergy Core can act as your home studio's hub for multiple sets of headphones, mixes, and monitor feeds. Its S/PDIF digital I/O ports are perfect for expanding your setup with digital gear such as external converters, and a secondary USB Type-C is provided, so you can charge your smartphone or tablet.

Rise above the Sound You Know

The Zen Go Synergy Core shrinks the gap in sound quality between artists with access to premium studios and home creators. The pristine sound is due to a combination of professional-grade AD/DA converters and Antelope Discrete ultralinear preamps that share circuits with legendary American and British consoles. The standout sonic quality of the device would not be possible without the main pillar of the Antelope Audio sound—the 64-bit AFC clocking technology from the company's high-end master clocks. It is employed in prestigious studios around the world and has been trusted with the scoring of Hollywood blockbusters.

Full Production Pack, from the Get-Go

Zen Go Synergy Core comes with 37 premium analog-modeled effects that will help you create stunning, sonically rich productions. Aside from the exclusive compressors, EQs, and preamps, the interface comes with 22 guitar amps and cabs, a guitar tuner, and a signature reverb that are all ready to be applied in real time to your tracking and mixing session. The Synergy Core effects processing allows you to stack up your chain with many effects instances while monitoring through the interface without fear of overloading.

At any time, you can expand your effects collection by purchasing more classic go-to units, true rarities never before recreated in digital form, and 3rd party effects like Antares Auto-Tune Synergy.

Create from Anywhere, Anytime

Antelope Audio's first bus-powered interface is optimized for ultralow-latency recording, high-resolution playback, creative beatmaking, and podcasting from virtually anywhere. With just a USB Type-C cable (included), you can power the Zen Go Synergy Core from your computer and use it to its full potential without having to carry a dedicated power supply with you. The interface can also be powered with any USB Type-C charger if you are away from your computer and still want to use its core functionalities.

Better Recording and Producing Workflow

Every feature available to you in the interface's control panel has been added to improve the important aspects of your workflow. Since DAW monitoring inevitably adds latency, you can monitor directly through the interface to reduce delay to the absolute minimum. With the routing options, you can easily set up a near-zero latency mix and stack it with your favorite Synergy Core effects without fear of overloading the onboard platform. Dedicated signal metering is available for both input and output levels on the front-panel display and in the software control panel.

Smart Connectivity in a Small Package

The two XLR-1/4" combo input jacks give you the flexibility to choose between Antelope's Discrete mic preamps and line / Hi-Z inputs; they are easily configurable via the control panel. The two 1/4" TRS balanced outputs, mirrored with the stereo RCA output, allow you to send the signal from the professional-grade D/A converter to two separate sound systems. Use one for your main monitors and the other for a DJ mixer or any other sound system with RCA connectivity, whilst preserving sound integrity.

Conversion and Clocking

• Class-leading AD/DA conversion with up to 127 dB of headroom
• Recording, mixing, and playback at up to 24-bit / 192 kHz
• Proprietary 64-bit Acoustically Focused Clocking (AFC) technology and Jitter Management algorithm delivering increased width, separation, and detail in musical performances

Analog and Digital Connectivity

Loopback Function for Streaming

Send your monitoring mixes containing any signal source from the interface's inputs and OS/DAW return back into your computer's virtual inputs to easily set up online broadcasting.

Session Recall

For every individual recording scenario, you can save session files and create exact snapshots of your effects chains, so you can load them later without losing your progress.

Antelope Edge Solo Large-Diaphragm Cardioid Modeling Microphone

Built to serve high-tech mic emulations for incredible versatility on a budget, the Antelope Edge Solo is a large-diaphragm condenser microphone bundled with software models of 18 coveted dynamic and condenser microphones. Resultingly, it gives musicians, home producers, and project studio engineers access to an impressive virtual mic locker and the luxury of "swapping" mics in an instant, even after the recording.

The Edge Solo sports a cardioid polar pattern, and as such, models the characteristics of classic cardioid mics. The cardioid response type rejects significant sound level behind the mic, so it picks up less background noise than many other polar patterns. With its low-resonance construction and 1.3" gold-sputtered capsule in a low-reflection headbasket, the Edge Solo can deliver clear and nuanced sound that's suitable for anything from vocals and speech to an array of instruments.

Built for High Resolution

Engineered with an eye towards detailed sound capture, the Edge Solo uses technology developed after years of experience with high-resolution sound. The 6-micron gold-sputtered membrane brings out the character of your voice and instruments for a rich sound without sacrificing transients or detail. True-to-source textures are captured thanks to a low-resonance body and low-reflection headbasket. This also translates to self-noise levels that are indiscernible from the natural ambience of your room.

Virtual Mic Locker

The Edge Solo gives you access to 18 carefully selected classic microphones. We've assembled a diverse collection of revered models that were hand-selected as the top picks for many award-winning engineers and producers. The Edge Solo will elevate your tracking capabilities on a par with studios that have invested thousands in rare vintage microphone collections, while Antelope's ever-growing library of emulations will continue to expand your home studio.

Modeling Engine

What makes the Edge Solo such a special recording tool is the Modeling Engine, a futuristic technology that brings a selection of timeless classics to your studio. To develop it, Antelope worked with several revered European facilities, making rigorous measurements and testing multiple exquisitely preserved vintage microphones as well as modern high-end classics. The accuracy of their mic emulations keeps the frequency response and color of the originals.

Choose Your Workflow

The Edge Solo has been designed for efficiency and versatility. The Modeling Engine saves studio time and maintains the creative dynamic in fast-paced recording sessions. It lets you change your choice of microphone in real time with a click of a button, without ever having to disturb the recording process, or record clean and try out different models in the mixing phase.

Although the Edge Solo works with any preamp, pairing it with the Discrete preamps of Antelope's Synergy Core interfaces unlocks the full potential of the real-time microphone emulations. When processed by their onboard Synergy Core platform, you can track with the emulations while enjoying imperceptible latency and zero CPU load.

Flexible Tools

The Edge Solo works with any preamp with 48V phantom power and is for anyone that needs one microphone to record a variety of sources. It excels with any type of audio, from vocals, guitars, and drum overheads to speech applications, such as voice over, dubbing, and audio books.

The microphone emulations are available in VST, AU, and AAX plug-in formats for all popular DAWs under both macOS and Windows, regardless of the audio interface being used. An iLok 2 or 3 USB dongle is required.
