Antelope Audio Zen Quadro Synergy Core is a high-end portable audio interface featuring four discrete console-grade preamps, dual USB-C connectivity, standalone operation with a color display, and real-time effects processing via the Synergy Core DSP+FPGA engine.
Designed for professional-grade conversion and versatility, Zen Quadro delivers up to 130 dB of dynamic range, clocked by Antelope’s proprietary 64-bit AFC technology, ensuring exceptional stereo imaging and crystal-clear detail during playback and recording. The interface includes four ultra-low-noise preamps with 6-transistor discrete topology and up to 75 dB of gain — perfect for dynamic and ribbon microphones without external boosters.
Its dual USB-C ports allow simultaneous use with two computers, or a computer and a mobile device, with full routing control and loopback functionality for streaming. The standalone mode, accessible via the color display, allows full control over routing, effects chains, and monitoring without a computer — ideal for live performance or hybrid stage setups. The second USB port also supports device charging.
The Synergy Core engine combines DSP and FPGA processing to model analog gear components in real time with virtually zero latency and no CPU load. Up to 48 mono effects can be applied simultaneously across 6 input channels, including compressors, EQs, modulation, amps, and cabs.
