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.

I have been using the Antelope Zen Quadro for some time and I am really happy with it.
The sound quality is excellent: the sound is accurate, detailed, and very clean, both when recording and when listening. The preamps offer a lot of definition and the converters immediately give an impression of depth and clarity.
I also really like the flexibility of the routing and the many possibilities offered by the interface. Once the configuration is taken care of, it becomes a very complete tool for both recording and mixing.
The construction inspires confidence and the device really feels like a professional product designed to last.
For me, the Zen Quadro offers an excellent compromise between audio quality, features and a compact size. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a serious interface for a personal or professional studio.Automatically translated

the product is very good unfortunately you have to be careful because the AFX2DAW option may be fickle, does not work on my Cubase USB PC

I am so disappointed, because when I received the product it was without instructions and it was super scary, I panicked for a week, I did not know what to do, I did not know how to use the sound card where to start until I started watching videos on YouTube even with that I still did not understand how to use the sound card until I dug myself and I finally understood something, but frankly yes Has people today they want to get this card, I would say look for another interfaces not that one. Go and get the interface at Apollo Twin.

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.
