Zen Quadro

The Zen Quadro Synergy Core is a desktop interface that genuinely surprised me—especially for I/O, DSP effects, and that dual USB-C ‘two interfaces in one’ concept. If you want a flexible home-studio hub with expandable inputs and virtually latency-free onboard processing, this is absolutely worth a look.

Pros

+Four XLR combo inputs (two Hi-Z) plus ADAT and S/PDIF expandability
+Two independent headphone mixes from the front-panel jacks
+37 onboard effects running on the interface with virtually no latency
+Dual USB-C for connecting computer and mobile device

Cons

-Full control and routing relies on learning the console software
