Antelope Audio Orion 32+ Gen 3 Thunderbolt/USB Interface

Description

Orion32 + provides seamless connectivity to any DAW, allowing for low latency simultaneous I/O streaming of 64 channels of 24-bit, 192 kHz audio signal via ThunderboltTM and 32 channels via USB. The analog I/O are handled by 8 DB25 connectors and a pair of TRS connectors for monitoring.

Orion32 + is a successor to the worlds first 32-channel AD/DA, now offering a greater variety of interfaces such as Thunderbolt, MADI and USB. The digital connectivity options are complimented also by ADAT and S/PDIF.

Antelope Audios proprietary FPGA is optimized to run custom equalization, compression, and reverb plug-ins. This potent modeling arsenal includes our vintage EQ models, AuraVerb, as well as other effects to be released all coming at no additional cost.

• Custom FPGA for flawless real-time effects processing & integrated AFX
• AD/DA powered by our world-renowned jitter management algorithm
• Thunderbolt, MADI, USB, ADAT, S/PDIF, 8x DB25
• Oven Controlled Oscillator, 2 WC Outs, WC In, Atomic Clock In
• Routing, mixing, real-time effects processing via OS X & Windows compatible app

Enhanced Routing, Mixing and Monitoring
Orion32 + offers stunning flexibility and great productivity, providing a color-coded routing matrix with four separate mixers, built-in DSP effects and zero latency monitoring. The entire control is gathered in a desktop application available for both OS X and Windows.

The control panel is based on the software created initially for Orion32 and further developed for another Antelope Audio leading product, Zen Studio. Orion32+ control panel is an extremely intuitive user-friendly interface, which incorporates both our know-how and customers feedback.

Digital clarity meets analog detail in Antelope Audios signature sound
The proven clocking accuracy is supported by Antelopes renowned 64-bit Acoustically Focused Clocking (AFC) jitter management technology, the same as with the flagship Trinity Master Clock.

The clean, transparent and detailed conversion in Orion32+ is the same as with its predecessor, which has proved its sound quality in a great number of studios and live shows across the Globe.

The 10 MHz input, enabling connectivity to Antelopes legendary 10M Atomic Clock and its successor 10MX, makes Orion32+ crystal oscillator remarkably precise, emphasizing the signature Antelope sound. The two word clock outputs make Orion32+ a great fit in any setup, not only as an interface, but a master clock as well.

Orion32+ features Antelope Audios hardware-based effects
Orion32+ features all four members of the Antelope EQ Legends bundle including VEQ-1A our emulation of a legendary tube EQ, whichs been an inseparable part of every pro studio in the world. VMEQ-5 will make your mid range shine as never before. VEQ-55A will enahnce all details your mix has been missing. Last but not least Orion32+ gives you the chance to explore the great analog sound of the BAE-1073 a cult and versatile 70s channel module easily found on all your favorite records.

AuraVerb creates various ambient colors, or Auras, using a unique algorithm to provide richness like no other reverb plugin on the market. Producers can easily design thickening effects, washing effects, bright halo type film score effects. AuraVerb comes with reverb presets, exclusively designed by the 5-time Grammy Award winning recording and mixing engineer Brian Dr. Vibb Vibberts.

Enhanced Orion32+ desktop application for even smoother studio workflow
Control all Orion32+ features and functions from its freshly redesigned desktop app. OS X and Windows compatible, the control panel follows Antelope Audios networking control concept, meaning you can now access the interface from multiple computers in the same network. The Orion32+ software panel allows users to detach all its sections into freely movable and resizable panels for more convenient session arrangements, especially important for engineers and artists with multiple screen setups.
