Antelope Expertise in a Bus-Powered Format
Zen Quadro follows the "Zen" interface line by bringing the conversion quality of the flagship Galaxy series to a bus-powered desktop format. It incorporates Antelope's expertise in digital clocking and jitter management to deliver a wide soundstage, clear transients, and reliable mix tracking without external power.
Who Is It For? Mobile Producers, Project Studios, and Content Creators
Designed for lightweight multitrack recording, advanced podcasting, and professional streaming, Zen Quadro combines powerful preamps, precise monitoring, and versatile connectivity. The dual USB-C allows connection to two hosts (Mac/PC and mobile device) for co-streaming, playback of assets from a smartphone, or separating guest/music feeds, while integrated loopback simplifies broadcasting.
Features and Innovations That Make a Difference
Reference Conversion and Clock
High-performance converters paired with the AFC 64-bit clock provide an unusual level of detail for a bus-powered interface: more confident recording and mixing decisions, stable stereo image, and increased depth.
Dual Bi-Host USB-C
Like having two interfaces in one: freely route signals between two USB connections, blend them in internal mixers, and charge your mobile device via the secondary port while the primary port powers the interface.
Discrete Preamps Inspired by Large Consoles
Four discrete 6-transistor stages offer headroom and musicality, with 48 V phantom power and generous 75 dB gain to capture demanding sources without external boosters.
Synergy Core Real-Time and Standalone Mode
The FPGA + DSP duo processes up to 48 mono effects with extremely low latency. In standalone mode, recall effect chains and control routing directly from the built-in screen: convenient for stage or mobile sessions.

Questions frequently asked
How many sources can be recorded simultaneously with the Antelope Zen Quadro?
The interface features 4 analog inputs on XLR/6.35 mm combo jacks. The first two accept mic, Hi-Z, or line signals, while the other two accept mic or line signals.
Is it possible to connect a computer and a smartphone at the same time?
The dual USB-C allows simultaneous playback and recording on two systems, for example a computer and a mobile device. The secondary port can also charge the mobile device while the primary port powers the interface.
What mic gain and phantom power are available?
Four discrete preamps offer up to 75 dB of gain and 48 V phantom power.
Which effects are included with the interface?
The software suite includes 37 Synergy Core effects. The FPGA + DSP processing allows up to 48 mono effects to be used in real time with extremely low latency. Effect chains can be recalled in standalone mode from the built-in screen.
Is the Zen Quadro compatible with Mac and PC, and up to what resolution?
Compatibility is announced for both Mac and PC. Conversion reaches 24-bit / 192 kHz, with a 64-bit AFC clock designed to reduce jitter.
