Description:
TEC Award winning Satori is a digitally-controlled true analog monitoring and summing system designed for today’s studios. Antelope’s Orion32 and Zen Studio interfaces have both been praised for their digital clarity, while maintaining the realism of analog sound. Satori features the same high level of uncompromising sound quality thanks to advanced analog circuit design.

Mastering-grade transparency
Satori provides a monitoring solution that maintains sonic accuracy while routing and switching between
source material, especially when the D/A is handled by the clear and natural-sounding Antelope family of
converters. Antelope Audio’s extensive background in designing pristine analog circuitry, highly optimized PCB layout and power supply technology result in mastering-grade transparency at a project studio price.

Innovative attenuator architecture with utmost precision
Whereas relay attenuators, being mechanical switches, provide the best sound quality, they suffer from
popping or zippering artifacts when the volume is adjusted. Satori employs an innovative, patent-pending technology that dramatically reduces these artifacts while retaining all the advantages and excellent sonic performance of the relay attenuators. The greatest advantage of using relays is that they achieve 0.05 dB stereo accuracy and stable L/R balance even at lower listening levels. Satori also boast .5db increments of source and output trim offset control. This pristine, passive attenuator signal path fully preserves audio signal integrity while revealing even the most subtle nuances.

Analog summing functionality
In addition to providing outstanding monitoring capabilities, Satori includes a fully analog 8-channel summing
mixer. Analog summing allows engineers who work completely “in-the-box” to mix signals in the analog
domain for a more natural blending of instruments. The summing mixer inside Satori maintains punch,
headroom and excellent dynamics, while offering the analog sound usually found only from legendary analog
consoles.

Headphone amps and talkback
Surpassing most monitoring controllers, which offer one or two headphone outs, Satori features four
independent headphone amps ready to provide several band members their own, unique input feed with
independent volume control. Satori’s headphone drivers are audiophile-grade and are the same as those
used in Antelope’s premium line of high-end home audio converters, able to drive both low and high
impedance headphones.

A unique software talkback solution allows for instant communication with performers. Satori provides great flexibility by offering several kinds of talkback mic sources – via the built-in mic on the front panel or R4S and the 1/4” TRS connector on the rear panel or the built-in mic in the engineer’s laptop.

An abundant number of I/Os
Satori provides a generous amount of connectivity options. No other 1U monitoring system has eight stereo
inputs and four stereo outputs and features such a comprehensive choice of connections: XLR, 1/4” TRS
and D-Sub 25. Satori also boasts a subwoofer output and four 1/4” independent headphone outs.
