Product Overview

When it comes to recording your music, you need the best tools available. Thats why Im so pleased with my purchase of the Antelope Audio Zen Tour Synergy Core. This all in one desktop audio interface provides studio quality recording path with 4 low noise high gain discrete ultra linear preamps, high spec AD/DA converters with up to 130 dB for artefact free recording and signature clocking technology for increased width, separation, and detail in your performances.

The Zen Tour Synergy Core is a powerful 8x14 Thunderbolt 3 USB 2.0 audio interface for Mac/Windows with 4 discrete preamps, 4 Hi Z/line inputs and 36 real time plugins included. It also has four instrument line ins, eight DC coupled line outs on DB25, two reamp outs, S/PDIF ADAT, two stereo headphone outs and a stereo monitor out to route all your audio through a flexible software matrix.

One of the best features of this product is its plugin library consisting of emulations of most coveted and hard to find studio analog gear from around the world. The collection spans from a rare Austrian born EQ to legendary British solid state processing and you can apply these plugins while mixing or tracking live with near zero latency. In fact, you can work on a session with up to 256 plugins loaded simultaneously without CPU load and no need for external DSP accelerators thanks to the Synergy Core onboard platform for real time plugin processing.

Overall, I m very impressed by the Antelope Audio Zen Tour Synergy Core. It s an ideal tool for serious musicians who want professional quality recordings without spending too much money or having too many bulky components in their home studios. I would highly recommend it for anyone looking for an affordable yet reliable way to record their music.
