Antelope Devices Thunderbolt Interface
Just a heads up for anyone interested in the Antelope Devices that make use of the Thunderbolt interface. I just purchased the Antelope Goliath and was shocked to discover that Thunderbolt is NOT supported on a PC/Win machine. There was absolutely nothing in the manual or on the Antelope web site to indicate that thunderbolt was only supported with Mac/OSX. I have not seen this in any review of the Goliath product.
In the Antelope FAQ I was able to find a comment for the Zen Tour, Orion Studio, Orion 32+, Zen Studio, and Orion 32. (But not for Goliath)
WILL THERE BE THUNDERBOLT SUPPORT FOR WINDOWS?
There are no plans to implement ThunderBolt support for Windows at this time. However, if there are recurrent questions about it and requests for it to be implemented, we will forward it as a suggestion to our development teams.
Using USB limits the Goliath to half of the I/O channels that are available using Thunderbolt.
