Product information
General
The Discrete 8 by Antelope Audio is engineered for serious users. The brand has established their position as market leaders in high-end (clocking)systems, and the Discrete 8 is equipped with the best features Antelope Audio have to offer. For starters, it's equipped with eight independent (discrete) preamps that have been completely rebuilt to facilitate the device's new microphone-modelling platform. You'll also find acclaimed real-time AFX effects as well as possibilities for re-amping a direct guitar signal.
The ultimate audio interface?
The modelling technology in the Discrete 8 was developed by Antelope engineers and enables users to record with or without modelling effects. With the help of the built-in modelling tool, you can create your own custom microphone/preamp combinations. Record directly with these characteristics in real-time or edit the material afterwards; either way, you're in complete control. Another new feature is the possibility to load AFX effects as a plugin in your DAW (ConnectAFX) instead of as inserts. This functionality was requested by many Antelope users, and the brand took it seriously enough to integrate it into this device. To sum up, with excellent conversion and countless connection options at your fingertips, the Discrete 8 is sure to take centre-stage in your studio!
Tips or comments about this product
- Please note: the Discrete 8 does not allow you to load more than two AFX instances in your DAW at the same time. If you wish to be able to load more, there are two options available: an upgrade or a bundle that includes the Edge modeller microphone. This offers access to all 16 AFX effects instances.
