The Antelope Discrete 4 Synergy Core is a compact Thunderbolt/USB Audio Interface with advanced Synergy Core processing technology. This built-in DSP allows the Antelope FPGA effect library to be operated from within the interface itself, taking the load off your computer. This means you can run multiple Plug-Ins simultaneously without worrying about latency problems. Regarding Plug-Ins: on board are 36x Synergy Core FX, which were modelled after well-known hardware originals.

 

Next-Generation Signal Processing
With parallel FPGA calculation capabilities and industry-standard combined DSP performance, Synergy Core takes the load off your internal CPU and processes effects with extremely low latency. You can expect to reduce buffer size, record with a millisecond or less of latency and monitor in real time.

 

Best-in-Class AD/DA
Instead of recycling obsolete technologies, Antelope strives to use the latest innovations.

With up to 121dB dynamic range and sampling rates up to 192kHz, AD/DA converters ensure that your precise performance is captured with the highest possible signal quality. Combined with a state-of-the-art pre-amp design and renowned clocking technology, it takes any recording to a new level.

 

Discrete Pre-Amplifier Architecture
The Discrete 4 Synergy Core features unique, discrete 6-transistor pre-amps for console sound quality. The circuit is the result of an extensive study of legendary Microphone pre-amps that have shaped the sound of countless records. The interface was designed with Antelope's Edge & Verge family of modelling Condenser Microphones in mind. Their features, perfectly complemented by the pre-amp design and Synergy Core technology, take Microphone recording to a new level.

 

Acoustically Focused Clocking
As a pioneer of atomic clocking in pro audio, Antelope Audio has more than 20 years of experience in clocking its Audio Interfaces. With its proprietary 64-bit AFC jitter management algorithm, Discrete 4 Synergy Core delivers the kind of artefact-free audio only the most renowned studios can provide.

 

Microphone Emulations
With the Discrete 4 Synergy Core's Accusonic 3D modelling engine, you can turn Antelope Audio Edge and Verge modelling Microphones into expensive-sounding vintage replicas. Create the final sound with complete control over the proximity effect and change the polar pattern during or after recording.

 

Unmatched Connectivity
With a host of analogue and digital connectivity options, as well as USB and Thunderbolt ports for computer connectivity, the Discrete 4 Synergy Core offers more possibilities than any other DSP-compatible interface. 4x Microphone inputs, 4x line outputs, a pair of monitor outputs, 4x headphone outputs and S/PDIF are available. Digital expandability is possible with ADAT chains. In addition, you can use a pair of word clock outputs to distribute the highly stable clock signal of the interface in your studio.

36x Synergy Core FX
The Discrete 4 Synergy Core offers a compelling library of 36x real-time studio Effects carefully modelled on their hardware originals. Thanks to massive parallel FPGA computing capabilities, DSP processing and fast Thunderbolt connectivity, all this happens within your Audio Interface with the lowest possible latency. The library can be expanded to include all the Effects obtainable from Antelope’s website.
