Introducing the Zen Quadro

Conversion & Clocking

• Class-leading AD/DA conversion with up to 130dB of headroom.

• Recording, mixing and playback at up to 24-bit/192kHz.

• Proprietary 64-bit AFC™ (Acoustically Focused Clocking) technology & Jitter Management algorithm delivering increased sound width, separation, and detail.

Connectivity

• 4 × Discrete 6-transistor preamps with 75dB of gain for pristine recordings. All work as microphone/line and two are also Hi-Z inputs, on combo XLR jacks, and supply 48V of phantom power.

• 2 x monitor outs and 2 x line outputs via TRS

• Two stereo headphone outputs with separate gain control and mix

• Two independent USB-C ports (OTG) for simultaneous playback & recording

• ADAT Input (up to 8 ch) and S/PDIF I/O (2 ch)

• DC-coupled inputs and outputs for controlling modular synths with control voltage (CV)

Real-Time Effects Processing

• Included collection of 37 Synergy Core effects modeled after classic and rare analog outboard gear.

• Synergy Core – proprietary FPGA+DSP platform for real-time effects processing allows up to 48 effects loaded simultaneously with near-zero latency.

• Mic Modeling Engine allows pairing with the Edge microphones for real-time use of vintage microphone emulations.

Workflow-enhancing features

• Direct monitoring with Synergy Core effects, processed in real-time with near-zero latency.

• Easy routing – select audio sources per channel, for each monitoring mix. Also available through the color display.

• Simultaneous playback and recording with two computers or computer + mobile device.

• Flexible loopback options for streaming.

• Customizable presets with signal routing, level adjustments, mixer, and effects settings.

• Customizable monitoring mixes with adjustable levels, panning and reverb.

• Class-compliant, no driver required on macOS and iOS.

• Standalone operation – simply connect to a phone charger and use without being connected to a computer.

• Remote control of software features from a separate computer connected to the same network.
