ORION 32+ GEN 3 - Overview

Now all Antelope Audio Devices are compatible with Apple M1!

The world's first 32-channel AD/DA converter just got a lot better! The Orion 32+'s proven flexibility and exemplary sound quality have been expanded even further with upgraded, industry-leading conversion and a major facelift. Orion 32+ Gen 3 provides seamless connectivity to any DAW, with low-latency, simultaneous streaming of 64 channels of 24-bit, 192 kHz audio via Thunderbolt™and 32 channels via USB. The analog I/O are handled by 8 DB25 connectors and a pair of TRS connectors for monitoring. Digital connectivity options are complemented by ADAT and S/PDIF.

Orion 32+ Gen 3 offers extensive flexibility for excellent productivity. A color-coded software routing matrix with four separate mixers, effects chaining, and zero latency monitoring is provided. The routing matrix, mixers, and control panel are found within an intuitive desktop application for macOS and Windows.

Proven clocking accuracy is ensured by Antelope's renowned 64-bit Acoustically Focused Clocking (AFC) jitter management technology. A 10 MHz input enables connectivity to Antelope's legendary 10M Atomic Clock and its successor 10MX. That, and a pair of word clock outputs make the Orion 32+ Gen 3 a great fit in any setup - not just as an interface, but as a premium master clock as well.

Control all Orion 32+ Gen 3 features and functionality from its intuitive desktop app. macOS and Windows compatible, it implements Antelope Audio's networking control concept to let you access the interface from multiple computers in the same network. For added convenience and flexibility, the control panels are freely movable and resizable, facilitating multi-screen workflows.

The Orion 32+ Gen 3 features a suite of essential effects from Antelope Audio's vast library of FPGA FX models. Customers can purchase additional effects as they deem fit.
