Antelope Audio Orion Studio Rev. 2017
Product no: 9000-0033-8366 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

Antelope Audio introduces the Orion Studio Rev 2017, which is the updated version of the original Orion Studio audio interface. As well as new AD converters and a revamped look, it also features an FPGA engine! The new converters ensure a dynamic range of 124 dB. You'll find everything you need on board the Orion Studio Rev. 2017, which only take up 1U of space. The 12 Class A microphone preamps combined with Antelope Audio's highly-acclaimed clocking technology guarantee unparalleled audio quality.

FPGA engine better than ever

Antelope's patented FPGA engine ensures that the accurately modelled vintage effects and on-board amp and cabinet models are processed by means of the hardware. This relieves your computer system significantly and means you won't have to load all these plugins into your DAW, saving you time and processing capacity. All of this is handled by the FPGA engine. The platform is being continually expanded on with new effects and models that are all offered free of cost! This revised Orion Studio also adds 5 compressor models to its impressive range of effects. What's more, you can use up to 32 compressors and 40 EQs simultaneously!

Improved routing matrix

Antelope's routing software offers an intuitive way of working with colour coding that allows you to see instantly where your input and output signals are coming from and where they're going. Routing your outputs on the Orion Studio is simply a matter of drag-and-drop. You can also record specific settings or a combination of settings per session based on your own personal preferences. This functionality makes it possible to share certain settings with your fellow Antelope Audio users.

Tips or comments about this product

Please note: to access the Overloud plugins and the Studio One Artist software, you will need to register your Orion Studio on the Antelope Audio website.
Now temporarily with free AFX2DAW plugin that allows you to easily get Antelope Audio's acclaimed real-time FPGA effects into your DAW. This plugin normally costs hundreds of pounds!

Wrote the following about Antelope Audio Orion Studio Rev. 2017

Top product, enorm goeie conversie.
De preamps zijn erg clean, is voor mij niet mijn sound maar wel heel erg goed!
Verder is de manier waarop je routings kan maken erg overzichtelijk een enorm uitgebreid.
Heb niks slechts gevonden over dit product.
