Antelope Audio Galaxy 64 Synergy Core Thunderbolt Audio Interface

zZounds Gear Experts Say...
With 64x64 analog I/O and Thunderbolt, 2x Dante, and 4x HDX ports, Antelope's Galaxy 64 Synergy Core serves as the hub for any high-end production facility.

Galaxy 64 Synergy Core is a high-end recording system that connects your entire studio within a 2U rack space while providing high-fidelity audio and onboard plugin processing for your most demanding projects. With Dante, HDX and Thunderbolt connectivity, the world's first 64-channel AD/DA converter offers unbeatable flexibility when moving sound around your high-profile production facility, live stage, broadcast, or other enterprise applications. The interface is designed to be the hub of your entire recording environment that eliminates the need for any external modules & expansion cards, thus centralizing your entire setup.

Galaxy 64 Synergy Core is the only interface to offer two Dante ports for audio networking, four HDX ports for a full array of 128 channels at 192kHz sample rate in Pro Tools as well as Thunderbolt connectivity. These options can be used simultaneously with multiple systems for easy adaptation to different workflows with preferred DAW applications. This is all made possible by utilizing Antelope's exclusive FPGA configuration and advanced digital routing.

The interface comes with 36 real-time plugins in a collection largely composed of software emulations of vintage analog gear found in the world's most renowned facilities. The onboard Synergy Core offloads all processing to the interface while allowing direct monitoring with plugins in real-time with no perceived latency - a feature widely used in live performances.
