Antelope Audio Orion 32+ Gen 3 - Used  From Antelope

The Antelope Audio Orion 32+ Gen 3 builds upon the legacy of the world’s first 32-channel AD/DA converter, delivering pristine audio performance, ultra-low latency, and massive I/O channel counts in a compact 1U rackmount chassis. Equipped with upgraded mastering-grade AD/DA conversion, the Gen 3 achieves up to 129dB of dynamic range, capturing every subtle detail of your audio source with unmatched clarity, transient accuracy, and spatial depth.

At the core of the Orion 32+ Gen 3 is Antelope Audio’s renowned 64-bit Acoustically Focused Clocking (AFC) technology and jitter-management algorithms. Driven by oven-controlled crystal oscillators (OCXO), the unit provides pristine clocking stability to ensure rock-solid phase accuracy and wide, 3D soundstaging. Connectivity is fast and comprehensive, featuring Thunderbolt and custom high-speed USB 2.0 interfaces that stream up to 64 simultaneous 24-bit/192kHz audio channels via Thunderbolt or 32 channels over USB.

The unit features an expansive suite of onboard real-time FPGA FX, offering authentic hardware models of classic vintage EQ, compressors, preamps, and utility processors powered by the onboard processing engine. Routed through an intuitive desktop routing matrix and software control panel, users can route audio, control monitoring mix buses, recall presets, and manage low-latency monitoring with effortless flexibility. With four DB25 connectors providing 32 channels of analog inputs and outputs, alongside MADI, ADAT, and S/PDIF digital I/O, the Orion 32+ Gen 3 serves as the ultimate central hub for commercial recording facilities, hybrid mixing setups, and high-density live tracking rigs.
