FPGA POWER

They key to authentic FX modeling and zero latency audio processing is Antelope Audio's FPGA technology

 

Orion Studio HD features an extremely powerful Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) chip. This Antelope Audio pioneered technology provides the unit with massive modeling capabilities. In other words the FPGA is the reason why you'll be able to use over 40 Real-Time FX models of legendary EQs, compressors, guitar amps & cabs.

Those not only behave and sound as authentic as the real hardware that inspired us to recreate them in the FPGA domain, but are guaranteed to be easily applied when recording, mixing and mastering music. Another feature you'll love and we owe to the FPGA is the lowest latency possible. This allows you to create up to four independent, zero latency mixes. Those can be easily assigned to any output including the main mastering grade outs of Orion Studio HD and its two dedicated headphone outs.

 

ANTELOPE QUALITY CLOCKING & CONVERSION

Perfect sound still means flawless clocking

Orion Studio HD is using the AD converters from Orion Studio Rev. 2017, which are allowing dynamic range boosted to 124 dB. The audio world's favorite clocking accuracy is also a part of Orion Studio HD package as well. Powered by our acclaimed 64-bit Acoustically Focused Clocking (AFC) jitter management technology it's a guarantee for incomparable stability, sonic accuracy and audio detail. We're talking high-end pro studio language here so expect OCX HD and Trinity style clocking perfection here.


ENVIABLE CONNECTIVITY
