Antelope Audio Synergy Core interfaces employ ARM DSP + FPGA chips in custom configurations to process tens of input/output audio streams and hundreds of low-latency studio effects without burdening your computer. With 4x DSP + 2x FPGA processors, Zen Tour Synergy Core achieves a new standard for real-time audio effects in its category.

AUTO-TUNE SYNERGY
Built from the ground-up for the Synergy Core platform, Auto-Tune Synergy adds live pitch correction to the Antelope Audio experience. Industry-leading pitch correction anytime you need it – live, during recording, and at mixdown. Fully adjustable Retune Speed, Flex-Tune, and Humanize parameters with Auto-Key automatic key and scale detection. Real-time, low latency performance with the Edge Go modeling microphone and any Antelope Audio Synergy Core interface. ‘Classic’ mode pays homage to the legendary “Auto-Tune 5 sound” heard on countless hit records.

MAKE CONNECTIONS
Small footprint, big connectivity! Zen Tour Synergy Core offers a choice of 4 Instrument/Line inputs, 4 Mic/Line Ins, 8 Line Outs, 2 Monitor Outs, 2 Headphone Outs and 2 Re-Amp Outs, totaling 8 analog inputs and 14 outputs. The unit is digitally expandable over ADAT & SPDIF for an additional 10 digital input and 10 output channels. Additionally, all analog outputs are DC-Coupled and ready for control voltage (CV) applications such as control of modular synthesizers. As a final touch, an integrated Talkback microphone lets you demo vocals and propel your voice to the live room.

4 DISCRETE MICROPHONE PREAMPS
A proprietary design that honors the best of audio engineering practices, Antelope's fully discrete, ultra-linear microphone preamps offer 75 dB of gain with sound quality comparable to that of a great mixing desk. Musical and transparent, they perfectly complement the Antelope Audio Edge & Verge modeling microphones’ sonic characteristics to deliver the power of the Accusonic 3D mic modeling technology right on your desktop.

FULL SPEED AHEAD
Record and monitor with maxed-out effects chains at high sample rates and low buffer sizes without taxing your CPU! You can enjoy Latency-Free Direct Monitoring over 4 independent internal mixers with 32 assignable inputs and stereo outputs.

CENTER COMMAND
Zen Tour Synergy Core has modern touchscreen controls giving immediate access to metering, level controls, presets and settings. The intuitive interface and precise tactile control facilitate fast, efficient work at all times, without staring at a monitor.

PACK LIGHT
Zen Tour Synergy Core is Antelope's desktop-sized answer to professional rack-mount equipment. With it, all you need to make great recordings in your project studio, rehearsal space, or on the road is power, a decent laptop, and reliable headphones. The Synergy Core architecture lets you run processing-heavy projects without carrying external equipment like DSP accelerators, FX processors, and authorization dongles.

ROUTE ANY AUDIO
Built inside the software Control Panel, a comprehensive Routing Matrix houses a full-fledged digital patch bay to freely route audio between the interface’s analog and digital inputs and outputs. Run DAW playback through Synergy Core FX, re-amp guitar DIs through the Shred Guitar Amps & Cabs, and integrate external equipment. With all ‘training wheels’ removed, your workflow can be as esoteric as you want it to be.

• Immediate access to any parameter • Color-coded routing matrix with user labels and undo/redo • Four 32-channel, low-latency software mixers • Save and load custom presets • Single-window workflow

TRUE CROSS-PLATFORM
This time, it's not the manufacturer who's making decisions - you are. Whether your weapon of choice is PC or Mac, Zen Tour Synergy Core carries both Thunderbolt 3 (Type-C) and USB 2.0 (Type-B) ports for cross-platform compatibility with Mac and Windows machines.

HEAR THE TRUTH
With updated converters and Antelope’s bespoke 4th-generation clocking, Zen Tour Synergy Core offers pristine AD/DA conversion for artifact-free recording and critical listening with a best-in-class dynamic range of up to 130 dB (measured at the monitor outputs). The sound quality rivals that of professional rack-mount studio interfaces, which occupy additional space and may cost times as much.
