About this item

Rackmount 8x14 Thunderbolt 2 & USB 2.0 audio interface for Mac/Windows with 8 discrete preamps and 36 real-time plugins included
Where the sound of your whole band comes alive - The circuit of the 8 Discrete 6-transistor preamps is the outcome of an extensive study of legendary console microphone preamps that allowed Antelope Audio to design a preamp with extremely low noise and vanishingly low distortion.

36 real-time analog-modeled plugins included - The plugin library consists of emulations of most coveted and hard-to-find studio analog gear from around the world. The collection spans from a rare Austrian-born EQ to legendary British solid-state processing. A growing library of expansions is available to you in the Antelope software store
Onboard processing - Apply the plugins while mixing or tracking live with near zero latency. Work on a session with up to 64 plugins loaded simultaneously without CPU load and no need for external DSP accelerators - made possible by the Synergy Core onboard platform for real-time plugin processing
Other connections - eight DC-coupled line outs on DB25, two reamp outs, S/PDIF & two ADAT, word clock input, three word clock outs, two stereo headphone outs and a stereo monitor out

Amazing conversion, tons of i/o, cool plugins

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 29, 2021

Really great box. Super sturdy feel with the buttons and knobs. Lots of i/o with headphones, monitors, and even reamp outs. The plugins are really good and I can hear basically zero latency. Most important is the conversion, it's just really good. Easy one stop box for a project studio

EXCELLENT!!!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 31, 2021

What can I say "ANTELOPE ROCKS!!!! I was looking for an interface that would allow me to hear what i was doing properly and to keep the inspiration flowing. After getting set up my Discreet allowed me to get into my creative flow without missing a beat and by immediately allowing me to hear what I was doing close to broadcast quality was what I got before mixing! I look forward to turning my Discreet on everyday. I have to say this unit isn't for the person that's just messing around this is definitely for the serious.

Rapporto qualità prezzo insuperabile!

Reviewed in Italy 🇮🇹 on May 8, 2021

Verified Purchase

Ho acquistato la Antelope audio Discrete 8 sinergy core. È un prodotto che consiglio a tutti in quanto il rapporto qualità prezzo a parer mio è insuperabile! I suoi 8 pre sono di altissima qualità, e garantiscono una ripresa microfonica eccellente. Oltre alla qualità dei suoi pre, mi ha colpito la daw AFX2, sia per la sua semplicità di gestione di ogni canale, sia per le tantissime possibilità che offre. I plug in che mi sono stati dati da antelope sono top di gamma, e già da subito mi hanno permesso di ottenere un suono professionale sia sulle chitarre che sulle voci. Ancora devo provare a registrare una batteria, ma sono sicuro che suonerà da paura. Non potevo fare acquisto migliore per il mio studio di registrazione!

何より Rock On さんのサポートが素晴らしかった

Reviewed in Japan 🇯🇵 on June 15, 2020

Verified Purchase

この種の機器は、インタフェース規格ギリギリ攻めてるものが多い上、他の商品との差別化のため特殊な処理を売りにしていることが多く、トラブルが付きもの。
このデバイスは、購入してもマニュアルも全くついておらず、自分で探してダウンロードしないといけないくらいなので、くじけそうになるところだが、今回は Rock On さんのサポートの方が非常にこまめで丁寧なご対応をしていただいてすぐに使用できるようになった。もう感謝しかない。
普通なら、「メーカーのサポートに訊け」で終わっちゃうところなのにね。

そもそも注文時点絵、他の方と注文が偶然重なって、商品欠品になったにもかかわらず、素早い対応で間に合わせていただいたり、本当は別途頼まなくてはならないボーナスのマイク（Edge Solo）も一緒にお送りいただいたたりと、非常にかゆいところに手が届く対応。

商品ももちろん Antelope なので音質は問題なし。特に discrete 構成のプリ段はハイクオリティで、ローノイズ。音質はもういうことないですね。
ただし、ドライバーはバグが多く、タイミングが悪いと正常起動しないこともある。
DTM で作業するときは、いったん、PC をシャットダウンして起動し直して（再起動ではなく）から、作業されることをお勧めします。

とても良いインターフェース

Reviewed in Japan 🇯🇵 on June 12, 2020

Verified Purchase

2,3万円ほどのオーディオインタフェースから買い換えました。
主にギターのLine録りで使用していますが、1枚2枚と掛かっていた幕が取れたようなサウンドで感動しました。
内臓されているアンプ・キャビネットのプラグインもかなり自然で、イメージ通りにサウンドメイクができる様に感じました。
AFX2DAWを利用してDAWの各トラックへCPUを使用せずantelope audioのコンプやEQ等を掛けられるのもメリットかと思います。
デモ曲の制作、SNSへ簡単な曲の投稿のために使用していますが、少なくともこの環境では十分すぎるものだと思います。
デザインがかっこいいのも最高です！
