Antelope Axino Synergy Core | Quick Look
If you are a professional musician or vocalist who needs a home-studio themed USB microphone that truly rivals the sound of prized vintage microphones, the Axino from Antelope is worthy of your consideration. Hardly an average USB condenser mic, the Axino faithfully emulates the sound and performance of classic microphones in their cardioid state, such as the 67, the 47 FET, the C12, and more. But that�s not all: with included software, you can get the sound of a classic preamp, compressor, EQ, and more, all without expensive recording gear.
Plug the mic into your computer's USB input, plug a pair of headphones into the capsule's underside, and you're ready to go. Set up your custom mic chain from the Axino software, which gives you classic preamp emulations alongside compressors, equalizers, and other studio tools (a gate, an expander, and more). Monitor right through the microphone and record the tone of a classic mic right into your DAW, or record flat and add/change the mic modeling in your DAW. A tabletop stand, a shockmount, and a USB cable are included.
Flawless Performance, Effortless Setup
Axino Synergy Core is an intuitive system designed to handle high-quality recording, monitoring, and playback, all without latency. The device is designed to propel workflow at multiple angles to allow creativity to take the lead. Whether you're at home or on the road, Axino Synergy Core is the ultimate recording system that does it all.
Sonically Accurate USB Condenser Microphone
Axino Synergy Core is a large-diaphragm microphone designed to record the natural character, detail, and resonance of instruments and vocalists alike. The large, gold-sputtered membrane offers low self-noise, while the cardioid pickup pattern minimizes background noise, enabling the microphone to capture any sound effortlessly. A hybrid amp design, featuring Antelope Audio's renowned Discrete preamp technology, has been implemented to achieve a transparent, uncolored sound. Transparency is key for adding emulations and mic models in post.
Your Own Virtual Mic Locker
The Axino Synergy Core uses Antelope Audio's microphone Modeling Engine, which allows you to record with recreations of classic microphones. The mic ships with 18 emulations of dynamic, tube, and FET condenser microphones to record and monitor in real time. This system grants flexible workflow and the opportunity to experiment with different mic emulations to find the perfect sound. You can also record audio in its natural, unprocessed state, and use the emulations within a plug-in in your DAW, so long as you have an iLok 2 or iLok 3 for authorization.
Fully Optimized Audio Interface for Professional Results
The same cutting-edge technology from Antelope Audio's top audio interfaces also powers the Axino Synergy Core. The combination of precise 64-bit AFC clocking and professional AD/DA conversion yields pristine audio quality at resolutions up to 192 kHz / 24-bit. To ensure high-fidelity audio reproduction, the headphone output has been equipped with a DAC chip delivering 124 dB of headroom.
Expandable Synergy Core Effects Collection
The Antelope Synergy Core platform unlocks access to a selection of real-time effects processed entirely on DSP & FPGA chips. The device comes bundled with 10 Synergy Core effects specially chosen to enrich any recording. Within the bundle you'll get compressors, EQs, preamps and dynamic processors, perfect for achieving the ultimate radio-ready sound. In addition, over 80 analog-modeled effects are available to purchase from the Antelope Audio Software Store.
