Antelope Audio Zen Go Synergy Core 4x8 Bus-powered USB-C Audio Interface

The Zen Go Synergy Core brings Antelope's legendary audio quality to your desktop DAW. Engineered with Antelope Audio's 64-bit AFC™ clocking technology, the 4 x 8 USB-C interface puts your sound quality on par with that of high-end studios. The same core technologies that placed Antelope devices in some of the most revered recording studios in the world are at the heart of the Syn Go Synergy Core.

Two discrete console-grade transistor preamps exhibit an ultra-linear high-resolution response on input. This results in a warm, musical signal being delivered to the Zen Go's converters, and those converters offer up to 127dB of headroom so you can capture stunning detail and dynamics from every source. Antelope's 64-bit AFC (Acoustically Focused Clocking™) technology makes sure each sample is where it's supposed to be coming in and going out. That way you end up with perfectly imaged tracks that retain the natural tone and depth of the source with no smearing.

Two combo XLR jacks give you the flexibility to choose between the discrete mic preamps, line-level signal, and Hi-Z instrument inputs that are easily switchable from the front panel.

Optimized for ultra-low latency recording, high-resolution playback, creative beat making, and podcasting, Zen Go is compact and rugged enough to go where you go. USB-C bus power means you don't need to worry about wall-warts and searching for extra outlets. Clubs, tours, at home, and on location, this interface will elegantly handle what you throw at it with exceptional results.

Included with the Zen Go Synergy Core are 37 of the most useful and sought-after effects, including analog-modeled compressors, EQs, mic preamps, guitar amps & cabs and our signature AuraVerb. all the tools you’ll need to create stunning, sonically rich productions out of the box.
