Antelope Audio launches Zen Studio+

Antelope Audio launched Zen Studio+ which is the newest addition to its Zen family of portable professional audio interfaces at Prolight + Sound Guangzhou 2017 in Guangzhou, China.

Zen Studio+ comes with a growing arsenal of vintage FPGA-based effects, including accurately modeled EQs, compressors, guitar amps and cabinets. The key to the Zen Studio+ modeling engine is its custom FPGA chip.

The interface is fully controllable via an intuitive desktop application for PC and Mac offering flexible signal routing and customizable presets. The clocking accuracy of Zen Studio+ is provided by Antelope’s 64-bit Acoustically Focused Clocking (AFC) jitter management technology.
