The Antelope Audio Satori Gen2 + R4S is a second-generation high-end monitoring controller that combines neutral analogue sound with precise digital control, offering an advanced 0.25 dB stepped volume attenuator, four mastering-grade headphone outputs with talkback functionality, an expanded analogue summing mixer, extensive connectivity options, and a redesigned R4S remote control for seamless workflow integration.

Redesigned for Professional Studios

The Satori Gen2 introduces a sleek and modern aesthetic designed to complement professional studio environments. This version builds on its award-winning predecessor by refining key elements, including an improved stepped volume control that allows adjustments in precise 0.25 dB increments. This level of precision ensures impeccable volume balancing, vital for maintaining sonic accuracy during monitoring and mixing sessions. Moreover, the ability to operate multiple outputs simultaneously adds flexibility to complex studio setups.

Mastering-Grade Transparency

Engineers and producers benefit from the mastering-grade transparency of the Satori Gen2, which delivers a neutral signal path while switching and routing between multiple audio sources. Designed with Antelope Audio’s expertise in high-fidelity analogue circuit design and optimised power supply technology, the unit preserves the integrity of audio signals, ensuring pristine clarity and balance across all monitoring tasks. This makes the Satori Gen2 a robust solution for both professional and project studios.

Innovative Attenuator Architecture

The Satori Gen2 employs Antelope Audio’s advanced attenuator design, eliminating popping or zippering artefacts during volume adjustments. This precise architecture ensures seamless stereo accuracy and perfectly balanced left and right channels, even at lower listening levels. By preserving every subtle nuance in the audio signal, the Satori Gen2 guarantees a flawless listening experience across all monitoring scenarios.

Expanded Analogue Summing Mixer

The integrated analogue summing mixer, a hallmark feature of the original Satori, now includes individual volume controls for each input channel. This enhancement provides engineers with finer control over their mixes, allowing for more natural blending of instruments and dynamics. The analogue summing feature retains the punch, headroom, and organic sound quality synonymous with traditional analogue consoles, making it an essential tool for those mixing in-the-box.

Enhanced Headphone Monitoring and Talkback

The four independent, audiophile-grade headphone amplifiers cater to individual monitoring needs, enabling musicians and engineers to fine-tune their mix without compromise. Each headphone output offers independent volume control, ensuring everyone hears exactly what they require. Built-in and external talkback microphone options further streamline communication between performers and engineers, enhancing workflow efficiency.

Comprehensive Connectivity for Complex Studios

The Satori Gen2 provides extensive connectivity with eight stereo inputs and four stereo outputs, ensuring seamless integration with studio equipment. TRS, XLR, and D-Sub connectors offer compatibility with a wide range of devices, while two front-facing and two rear headphone outputs provide flexibility for various monitoring scenarios. A dedicated LFE output accommodates subwoofer integration, delivering the selected monitor signal with balanced precision. Additionally, the D-Sub thru connection outputs all signals from stereo inputs 5-8, ensuring uninterrupted signal flow throughout the studio.

Flexible Digital Control

The upgraded R4S remote control and refreshed software panel provide intuitive access to all features. Users can manage inputs, outputs, headphone monitoring, and talkback functionality with ease. The Satori Gen2 connects via USB to macOS or Windows systems, allowing access to its user-friendly software app for complete digital control.

Streamlined System Requirements

The Satori Gen2 operates smoothly on Windows 10/11 or macOS 10.15 and above, requiring only a single USB 2.0 or 3.0 port and a minimum of 8 GB RAM, ensuring compatibility with modern studio setups.

With its precise engineering, innovative features, and robust design, the Antelope Audio Satori Gen2 + R4S represents the ultimate monitoring solution for professionals seeking unmatched control, clarity, and versatility.
