Overview

Massive I/O connectivity with integrated realtime effects.

Goliath HD is a 64-Channel interface that can be used with Pro Tools|HD or Native DAWs via second generation Thunderbolt, USB 3.0 or via two MADI connections, which are compatible with MADI to Dante Bridge products. Coming with extensive I/O options, featuring 16 Accusonic mic preamps with individual volume controls, 32 analog ins with 124dB of Dynamic Range, 32 analog outs with 129dB of Dynamic Range, plus mastering grade monitor outputs, featuring new technology that boosts dynamic range to a spectacular 132dB. Goliath HD comes with 8 instrument inputs, 2 transformer re-amp outs, integrated Talkback mic, 2 headphone outs and a pair of analog inserts. And if this wasn’t enough, the descendant of the mighty Goliath offers also AES, MADI, ADAT and S/PDIF connectivity.

Needless to say Goliath HD is armed with the full Antelope Audio arsenal of hardware-based FPGA FX. These included the most authentic and realistic zero latency Vintage EQs, Compressors and guitar amp and cabinet models on the market. Use them for real time tracking or mixing and easily save presets with your favorite setups. Those can be easily recalled or shared with other studio facilities, which are also part of the global Antelope Audio family.

Revolutionize Your Pro Tools|HD Workflow
With Antelope’s proprietary HDX Delay Compensation, any analog or digital input can arrive in Pro Tools|HD sample accurately in the timeline. No other interface on the market offers this level of perfect integration for digital sources to Pro Tools|HD software. The Antelope Audio Real-time FX, zero latency independent software mixers and routing matrix with two alternative views are the perfect compliment to Pro Tools|HD studios, which have come to expect maximum power at their disposal. Goliath HD, however, is compatible with any DAW on the market making the device the heart and soul of the highest tier audio facilities around the world.

HD Studio Centerpiece
By offering both HD and USB3 modes, engineers can now accommodate producers and their laptop projects and integrate them into their existing HD setups by easily switching between HD and low latency Thunderbolt and new USB3 modes. Goliath HD guarantees quiet operation even in the most demanding control rooms. Don’t be surprised if soon expensive machine rooms become a thing of the past.

Clock It Like It’s Hot
Another reason why Goliath HD sounds like no other interface on the market is because of the world-renowned Antelope Audio Acoustically Focused Clocking (AFC) jitter management technologies it features. With over 20 years of history in digital clocking behind us, Antelope backed the Goliath HD up with all OCX HD and Trinity sounding audio clocking. This unbeatable sonic detail and precision, combined with analog authenticity will bring your sound to the realms of hi-end audio. Now you can also spread this perfection across your whole studio as BNC connectors are available for use as Loop Sync, standard Word Clock I/O and the Antelope Audio 10M atomic input.

All The Control You Need
Goliath HD features a redesigned front panel. With enhanced monitor and level indicators, the responsive Touchscreen offers multichannel metering, easy access to preferences, presets, and clocking modes for HD or Native interfacing. And if this wasn’t enough, the Goliath HD dedicated Android & iOS compatible mobile app will allow you to turn your smartphone or tablet into a powerful audio interface remote control.
