In the fickle world of Audio & Video formats, the new Antelope Audio Trinity will be the Master Clock that stands out from the crowd for years to come, with the kind of features that other manufacturers can only aspire to. With dedicated functions and controls, The new Trinity is the best sounding and most versatile Master Clock available anywhere. There are unique features that are only available on the Trinity - such as Audio up to 384kHz, Varispeed, Nine completely independent generators, and a Triple display! Of course, all of this comes in an intuitive menu-free user interface, just as you would expect from Antelope.

Oven Control The crystal oscillators in the isochrone Trinity are housed in a temperature controlled oven, as commonly used in military and satellite communication. This keeps the oscillator at a constant temperature making the Isochrone 100x more stable than similar products.
Atomic Clock The Isochrone Trinity can be locked to the most accurate clock on Earth: the Atomic clock. A studio can truly achieve perfect stability with the power of Atomic Clock, and only Isochrone clocks are capable of locking to this unprecedented technology.
Brand New 64 Bit Design Trinity is the culmination of many years of clocking knowhow from the designers at Antelope, and is a brand new design with more design integration which leads to an even tighter and more focused sound quality. The 4th generation of Acoustically Focused Clocking with 64 bit DDS plays a major role in why Trinity makes your converters sound even better than ever.

"Just when you think only very small improvements are possible to improve the digital clock, along comes the Trinity. This new clock maintains more detail, ambience, and naturalness of the digital signal, and the difference is not subtle. Because of our findings, we at BGM are outfitting our Hollywood & Tokyo Studios with this clock. All of our engineers are impressed with such a significant advancement in digital technology."

"You don't know what you're missing until you hear it...Your entire studio sounds different. Your monitors just got an extended range. Your room all of a sudden reads low frequency bass response better. And your midrange sounds free and floating. Superior clocking makes your starting point entirely different, which affects every decision you make afterwards. " Jeremy Harding

"For the listening test, I recalled a mix I'd just sent off to Bob Ludwig for mastering. I heard the difference with the new clock almost immediately, and kept asking to switch back and forth between the Antelope and my old Big Ben. Within two minutes, I felt this hilarious combination of excitement to hear my music sounding at least 25% better forever from that point on, but also this tingly weird disappointment that all my prior work hadn't used this clocking system! I sent Bob Ludwig the same mix but this time with the new clocking setup. He liked it better and mastered the song again, replacing the first version.
You have to hear the difference. It's not subtle. Probably the most important component in any serious Pro Tools studio, because it makes everything sound much better and alive." Greg Wells
Greg Wells is a Grammy nominated record producer and songwriter. Wells has produced and written hits with Katy Perry, Mika, OneRepublic, Pink, Rufus Wainwright, Colbie Caillat, Jamie Cullum, Alexz Johnson, Deftones, Otep, The Veronicas, Jessie Baylin, Kyosuke Himuro and Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance, Creeper Lagoon, Natasha Bedingfield, Team Sleep, Jars of Clay, Anna Waronker, Hilary Duff, Hanson, Latin popstar Belinda, and the Count Basie Orchestra.
