Hot-rodded with Antelope Audio's future-proof Synergy Core FX processing platform, this latest Orion Studio features two FPGA chips and six DSP chips working in harmony to run Antelope's vast effects plug-in library. You get 50 of Antelope's top FX bundled with the hardware, including spot-on models of vintage analog gear and a killer collection of guitar amp and cabinet emulations.

■Synergy Core: FPGA + DSP = Future-proof Effects Processing With 6 DSP and 2 FPGA chips inside, Orion Studio Synergy Core can offload effects processing to your interface - freeing up your host Mac or PC to record and play more tracks and run CPU-intensive virtual instruments and native time-based effects.
Take on large projects, build complex mixes, reduce latency, lower buffer sizes, and maintain system stability. With massive processing power thanks to Antelope's cutting-edge Synergy Core dedicated FX processor, Orion is ready to grow with your studio.
■Includes 50 Antelope FX
Orion Studio Synergy Core unlocks Antelope's top 50 real-time effects plug-ins. Right out of the box, you get mic preamp emulations, compressors, EQs, reverbs, and guitar amp and cabinet models to liven up your tracks. And thanks to the Synergy Core architecture, you have the processing power to run all the simultaneous FX your session needs.
■Thunderbolt 3 + USB connectivity
A cross-platform audio interface for Windows or Mac, Orion Studio Synergy Core offers both USB and Thunderbolt 3 connectivity to your DAW host computer. You can even power and charge your MacBook from Orion Studio Synergy Core.
■ 130 dB dynamic range D/A for critical listening
Why trust your project to anything less than the best D/A converters? The Antelope Orion Studio Synergy Core provides 130 dB of dynamic range on both monitor output pairs, which can run simultaneously or in A/B mode.
■12 individual mic preamps + direct input
Orion Studio Synergy Core offers 12 mic preamps based on Antelope's ultra-linear discrete MP standalone preamps, with 75 dB of pure gain. For recording line-level signals, Orion Studio Synergy Core's Direct In hard-bypasses the mic pres and feeds them directly into the A/D converters with 124 dB dynamic range.

Send your audio wherever you need it with the digital patchbay and zero-latency mixer in the Orion Studio Synergy Core software control panel. As the "brain" of your pro studio, this interface gives you robust and flexible tools for routing and monitoring.
