Description

The Antelope Orion32+ | Gen 4 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 4 is designed to visually and aurally enhance your setup. It supports 128 channels of 24-bit / 192 kHz high-resolution audio via Thunderbolt 3, or 32 channels over USB. In addition to 32 channels of analog I/O via DB25 connectors, this interface features powerful digital I/O including fiber-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 4 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 synchronization with a variety of digital equipment.

Configure the interface via the front-panel display and buttons; a powerful preset system provides easy store/recall operations. Alternatively, use the macOS- and Windows-compatible desktop app for access to comprehensive routing, mixing, effects chaining, and more. The I/Os are DC-coupled, allowing them to be used with modular synthesizers.

Standard-Setting Conversion and Clocking
Antelope Audio interfaces are globally renowned for their industry-leading conversion and clocking and Orion 32+ Gen4 gives you the latest Antelope technology. Its AD/DA converters are capable of achieving up to 130 dB dynamic range, ensuring Gen4 its leading position among 1U studio centerpieces. Antelope Audio's signature 64-bit Acoustically Focused Clocking technology powers the high-performing conversion and the unit's two Word Clock outputs are there to keep your whole studio in line. Additionally, the available 10 MHz input is compatible with the cream of the crop of clocking, the unrivaled 10M and 10MX Atomic Clocks by Antelope Audio.

128-Channels of Audio via Thunderbolt 3 and MADI
Orion 32+ Gen4 can stream twice as many channels over Thunderbolt as its predecessor and has twice as much MADI connectivity, now at 128 channels for both. These significant upgrades allow for up to four units to be daisy-chained, for 128 channels of AD/DA via a single computer connection. This makes the unit a top choice for large recordings, live sound applications, complex postproduction setups and broadcast facilities. It's a preferred companion to large mixing consoles, hardware effects processing chains, analog summing boxes, reel-to-reel setups, hardware synthesizers, and pretty much anything else you can throw at it.

Embrace the Future of Audio Production
Orion 32+ Gen4 is compatible with the latest Antelope Audio Atmos-ready surround and immersive audio monitoring system. The integrated platform supports over 23 audio formats from stereo to Dolby Atmos 9.1.6 and offers precise speaker and room calibration tools. The system's intuitive monitoring controls and fast preset recall functionality are designed to increase productivity. It is available as an optional upgrade for the Orion 32+ Gen4. As a physical extension of the system, the compatible Antelope MRC hardware controller provides streamlined and tactile controls that are key for effortless yet advanced monitoring.

Redesigned Workflow for Improved Productivity
Orion 32+ Gen4 comes not only with an updated look and drastically boosted hardware but also with a redesigned Software Control Panel for an even smoother workflow. It now features a powerful preset recall system complete with signal routing, level adjustments, mixer settings, monitoring controls, and more. A handy monitoring pop-out widget has been introduced for hands-on output-level control and preset recall, featuring an always-on-top function. The unit's signal routing matrix is now fully customizable with convenient patching and less complexity in mind.

Easy Integration in Any Setup
Orion 32+ Gen4 is more than generous when it comes down to its available connectivity options. The unit is designed for quick and effortless integration in a variety of studio configurations, whether Thunderbolt or USB based. The interface is compatible with both Windows and macOS systems, and with extra options such as the ADAT port, it is guaranteed to fit all possible applications, from recording, mixing, interfacing, and conversion, to being used as an advanced patch bay or monitor controller. Orion 32+ Gen4 is also ready to become your modular synth's best friend as it features DC Coupled I/O allowing you to send CV signals from your DAW of choice straight to your hardware instruments or modular gear.
