Zen Go Synergy Core : The Best in the Price Range

4 years ago

Overall I am very satisfied with performance of the interface.

The sound is crisp and clear. Latency of onboard DSP is very low and selection of the FX is huge.

I am using onboard DSP to fix frequency response of the room a little bit. Double headphone output comes in handy to monitor clean unprocessed mix in headphones.

I am taking one star off for handling - zengosc mixer is not very user friendly and takes time to figure out the routing. Multifunctional volume knob that controls everything from output level to input gain can also be tricky to handle.

I am taking another star off quality as the volume knob tends to skip sometimes when adjusted.

That leaves us at 4.5 out of 5 which is a great score in my opinion.

I'd love to have ADAT instead of SPDIF, but you get what you pay for. This has been marketed as mobile audio interface at the end of the day.

Go for Zen Q if budget allows!
