• Connect via XLR or 4.4mm balanced outputs to a pair of active speakers or a dedicated headphone amplifier and benefit from its ultraquiet performance, for an accurate and reliable representation of the recording.

• In addition to its traditional inputs, the ZEN One Studio integrates a Bluetooth playback facility, making it perfect for use as a leisure product or music production tool.
• With support for aptX, aptX HD, aptX Adaptive, aptXLL, LDAC and LHDC/HWA and others, HD Bluetooth and a high-gain antenna provide the very best reproduction from a Bluetooth source.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Can i use usb speakers with this?

A: Hello Freddie, the AI-1 Audio Interface is meant to work as a replacement for your onboard sound card and is equipped with two balanced 1/4" outputs and not USB. If you would like to use your USB speakers, you would most likely have to use the AI-1 as your input first, disconnect, and then use your USB speakers as an output after the fact. I have heard of solutions for using two USB ports simultaneously, however, you would need to consult with your computer's manufacturer to see if this is possible.

Q: 2. please how much the weight of this bundle ?

A: These items may ship separately. The packaged weight for the Auray mic stand is 5 lbs. It will most likely be sent separately because of the dimensions. For the individual packaged weight of the other items, the Rode NT1-A and shockmount weigh 3.9 lbs, the Focusrite Scarlett is 1.45 lbs, the Polsen headphones are 0.75 lbs, and the cable is 0.48 lbs. If all items (excluding the mic stand) can be shipped together in one box, the total weight of the package will be approximately 5 to 6 lbs.

Q: 3. Do these mics come as a matched stereo pair?

A: The Rode NT1 is not currently offered as a matched pair.

Q: 4. Can you please tell the dimension and weight of package?

A: The shipping box for the Antelope Zen Q Synergy Core Desktop 14x10 USB Type-C Audio Interface is approximately 10.3 x 8.2 x 3.9" and it weighs about 2.6 pounds.

Q: 5. Hey! This product is new? Or it's has been used before?

A: The Antelope Zen Q Synergy Core Desktop 14x10 USB Type-C Audio Interface is brand new.

Q: 6. I tried to connect to a Pioneer DJM 900 NXS2, but the the microphone doesn't work at all. I tested via Focusrite on my computer, and it does work there well. How can I set up the mic with DJM 900 NXS2 to get sound?

A: The Microphone is a condenser and requires 48v of Phantom Power, which the Pioneer mixer does not supply. You can use an external phantom power supply, like the Rolls PB23. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/155422-REG/Rolls_PB23_PB23_Single_Channel.html However, if you intend to do live performances, this may not be the right mic. As it is a condenser, it is very sensitive and will pick up crowd and room noise, and possibly cause feedback in a live setting. You may want to consider switching to a dynamic mic for your live shows.

Q: 7. XLR Cable Included? I've seen unboxing videos where an XLR Cable and Mic Sock (not wind filter) are included, but they're not listed here hence my question.

A: The Rode NT-1 Kit (B&H# RONT1KIT / MFR# NT-1 KIT) includes the Rode SM6 shock mount with detachable pop filter, and a mic cover. You had most likely seen unboxing videos that show the Rode NT1-A Large-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone (B&H# RONT1ACRS / MFR# NT1-A) which includes the Rode SM6 shock mount with detachable pop filter, a mic cover, and a 20' shielded XLR cable. There are some differences between the two models. The NT-1 is the original model and it delivers a flatter, warmer tone with a bit more low end than the NT1-A. The NT1-A is the newer of the two models. It offers a brighter tone and it is capable of handling louder sounds with lower self-noise. The NT1-A is also lighter in weight than the NT-1. Both models have a frequency response range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz.

Q: 8. Does this come with a pouch or case?

A: items included in the box are: Rode NT1-KIT Large-Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Microphone Rode SM6 Shock Mount with Detachable Pop Filter Microphone Dust Cover XLR Microphone Cable No bag or case

Q: 9. Is this a usb microphone?

Q: 10. Does this connect directly to my computer?

A: yes through USB 2.0
