Description
The Antelope Orion32+ | Gen 3 is a Thunderbolt/USB audio interface offering 32 channels of AD/DA conversion and upgraded performance for audio engineers in recording studios and live stage applications. With a redesigned look, expanded dynamic range, and lower THD+N values, the Orion32+ | Gen 3 is designed to visually and aurally enhance your setup. It supports 64 channels of 24-bit / 192 kHz high-resolution audio via Thunderbolt, or 32 channels over USB. In addition to 32 channels of analogue I/O via DB25 connectors, this interface features powerful digital I/O including fibre-optic MADI, ADAT, and S/PDIF. The dedicated 1/4" monitor outputs are ideal for hooking up a pair of active monitors or a monitor controller.
The Orion32+ | Gen 3 also functions as a master clock, providing the same clarity and precision synonymous with Antelope, along with 64-bit AFC (Acoustically Focused Clocking) technology to handle jitter. Two wordclock outputs, a wordclock input, and a 10 MHz atomic clock input allow proper synchronisation with a variety of digital equipment.
Configure the interface via the front-panel display and buttons; five presets are provided for easy store/recall operations. Alternatively, use the macOS- and Windows-compatible desktop app for access to comprehensive routing, mixing, effects chaining, and more. The Orion 32+ Gen 3 includes a bundle of Antelope's FPGA-based FX, which model heralded audio hardware.
Key Features:
High Channel Counts at 24-Bit / 192 kHz
Stream 64 channels via Thunderbolt (32 channels via USB) at up to 24-bit / 192 kHz resolution
Precision AD/DA and Master Clock
Take advantage of 32 channels of AD/DA conversion regulated by Antelope clocking, including 64-bit AFC jitter-management technology, an oven-controlled crystal oscillator, and a complement of I/Os (two wordclock outputs, one wordclock input, and one atomic clock input)
Connectivity Options
Connect via Thunderbolt or USB to your host computer, interface digital equipment via MADI, ADAT, and S/PDIF, and hook up analogue gear via DB25 line-level I/O
Software Control
Access routing, mixing, zero-latency monitoring, and real-time effects processing from multiple computers on the same network via Antelope's macOS- and Windows-compatible desktop app
FPGA FX Models
The Orion 32+ Gen 3 features a suite of essential effects from Antelope Audio's vast library of FPGA FX models
Expandable Software
Purchase additional effects, and invest in the AFX2DAW software bridge, which enables onboard-processed, low-latency effects to be used as inserts in your digital audio workstation
Ready for the Rack
The rack-mountable Orion32+ | Gen 3 occupies just one 1 RU of rack space
