What Can Your Guitar Do with the Zenith 2 DSP?

Desktop Control.
Standalone Freedom.

Take control of Zenith 2 from your computer with the optional Software Control Panel. Adjust mixes, monitor levels in real time, load presets and fine-tune DSP effects, including a full pedalboard for Guitar Mode, and a 500-series-style interface for Studio Mode effects.

Everything remains available directly on the device, so you can work your way - standalone or from your desk.

Zenith 2 software control panel and device

Hear more, fix less.

Zenith 2 delivers up to a staggering 123 dB of dynamic range – the kind of performance that reveals subtle textures, vast depth, and razor-sharp transients. Our pro-studio design ensures ultra-low noise and wide, accurate stereo imaging. What you capture will be incredible, detailed, and sonically true – providing the best possible starting point for your creative process.

Console DNA, at your desk.

The fully Discrete 6-transistor mic preamps are inspired by legendary console circuits – the exact same architecture found in Antelope’s professional studio interfaces. Ultra-transparent and faithful, they capture your source material with perfect fidelity – the ideal foundation for post-production. With an expansive 75dB of clean gain, they are powerful enough to run any microphone – even hungry dynamic mics used by streamers and podcasters – without needing an external booster.

A Full Creative Studio, Included

Zenith 2 comes with a powerful collection of production software to help you start creating from day one. Record, arrange and produce in Bitwig Studio Essentials, shape your tracks with creative effects from Excite Audio and Safari Audio, mix with all 75+ Antelope plugins through Antelope Cosmos, and explore millions of royalty-free sounds with 3 months of Loopcloud.

From first idea to finished mix, this bundle gives you the essential tools for writing, recording, editing, sound design, guitar production, mixing and mastering – right out of the box.
