Connectivity options of a rack-mount interface The Discrete 4 Pro packs rich connectivity in a small package. This can make it your go-to for a wide variety of applications both in a home studio, and in a larger facility – voice overs, small band recordings, multi-synth setups and more. And with both USB and Thunderbolt™ 3 connectivity, the interface achieves cutting-edge performance and easy integration with any setup. |

Record and monitor with uncompromising detail What is expansive connectivity if you don’t rock the best sound? The Discrete 4 Pro boasts industry-leading AD/DA converters, offering up to 130dB of dynamic range. The new converters are backed up by our 64-bit AFC™ clocking technology – for even better transients, crystal-clear highs, and a stereo image with incomparable depth and detail. |

Circuit design inspired by legends Designed with a unique 6-transistor topology, our Discrete preamps are now synonymous with precise sound capture for most transparent recordings. This design is a product of an extensive study of the greatest console preamps in history and is a main in the Antelope Audio sound. The four Discrete preamps work wonders for any microphoneand perfectly complement the Edge line of modeling microphones and their frequency response. |
