Antelope Audio Brings Their Next Level HD Interfaces
Written by Paul Lavigne
Antelope Audio have released HD versions of their Goliath, Orion32 and Orion Studio audio interfaces adding to an already impressive range which have become incredibly popular thanks to their use of pioneering technologies such as atomic audio clocking, FGPA FX modelling and their stunning AD/DA conversion.
With the addition of a digilink connector all three interfaces now allow you to benefit from the stunning sound quality of Orion directly within your Pro Tools HD setup as well as on a native platform via the USB 3.0.
Connections include 12 Class A Mic pres, 16 analogue Out, 2 reamp outputs, A/B mastering grade monitor outputs and two independently assignable headphone outs. Furthermore it boasts digital I/O over ADAT and S/PDIF.
Key Product Features:
With 32 analogue inputs and outputs straight out of the box the Orion HD is the ultimate recording solution straight out of the box and now is avaliable for Pro Tools HDX and HD Native users. It also includes MADI and ADAT I/O over fibre optic and two channels of S/PDIF, offering perfect integration in your studio.
Two Word Clock outputs, one Word Clock input and one Atomic Clock input are provided to connect with other digital devices powered by Antelope’s 4th Generation 64-bit clocking technology.
Like the Orion Studio HD, it also comes with integrated hardware-based FGPA vintage effects.
Key Product Features:
Now with DigiLink connection, it integrates perfectly with Pro Tools HDX and Pro Tools HD Native and provides HDX delay compensation for tracking and mixing.
Like all Antelope Audio’s HD range it comes with the FGPA real-time vintage effects collection.
