ANTELOPE AUDIO ZEN QUADRO

The Zen Quadro redefines the standards of audio interfaces modern by integrating high-end components in a portable and affordable format. Equipped with AD/DA converters of the range Galaxy d-Antelope Audio, this interface offers exceptional sound quality thanks to discrete preamps of console quality with an impressive gain of 75 dB. Designed to meet the requirements of music creators and sound engineers, the Zen Quadro guarantees uncompromising sound quality, comparable to that of the world's largest recording studios.

One of the revolutionary features of Zen Quadro is its independent secondary USB-OTG port, allowing playback and recording on two systems simultaneously, as well as cross-routing and reverse loading when a mobile device is connected. Thanks to its color display, users can easily access direct routing functions and mix table settings. Presettings can be recalled in an instant, and the full standalone functionality ensures flexible use. Treatment Synergy Core, ADAT expansion, and the flexible Loopback function are just some of the many features offered by this portable audio interface.

The Zen Quadro is also equipped with state-of-the-art AD/DA converters offering a dynamic range of up to 130 dB and using AFC (Acoustically Focused Clocking) technology for improved transients and a stereo image of unparalleled depth. The ultra-linear 6-transistor discrete preamps, inspired by analog consoles from the time, guarantee unparalleled sound quality. With 37 modeled analog effects included and the ability to load up to 48 instances of mono effects simultaneously, real-time FX processing is done with imperceptible latency, allowing direct and reactive control of hardware. The Zen Quadro also has 4 discrete preamps, multiple analog outputs and the possibility of digital extension via ADAT and S/PDIF, thus providing a complete and scalable solution for audio professionals.
