Antelope Audio MRC Bus-powered USB Remote Controller For Antelope Interfaces

The Antelope Audio MRC is a compact, bus-powered USB remote controller that brings hands-on control to Antelope’s acclaimed multichannel and immersive monitoring system. Sitting neatly on your desk, it mirrors the key functions of your Atmos-ready Antelope interface, giving you fast preset recall, precise level control and instant access to speaker mutes and solos across formats from stereo right up to 9.1.6 Dolby Atmos.

Designed for engineers working in surround and immersive audio, the MRC replaces mouse clicks with a tactile, colour-coded layout that keeps you focused on the mix. Carefully pre-defined buttons with clear LED indication remove guesswork, while a central rotary encoder lets you control either your calibrated multichannel output or a dedicated stereo monitor path. With simple USB plug-and-play connectivity and bus power, it is an elegant way to streamline even the most complex monitoring setups.

Whether you are mixing music in Dolby Atmos, crafting film scores or checking stereo compatibility, the MRC makes navigating multiple formats, speaker sets and presets feel effortless. Its robust metal housing and compact footprint mean it is equally at home in a commercial studio or a tightly packed production room, giving you reliable, repeatable control session after session.

Advanced Multichannel Monitoring Made Simple

The MRC is the hardware heart of Antelope’s surround and immersive monitoring ecosystem, supporting over 23 formats from standard stereo to full 9.1.6 Dolby Atmos. Paired with compatible Antelope interfaces, it gives you direct access to powerful speaker and room calibration tools, including per-channel EQ and delay offset, all wrapped in an intuitive control surface that keeps complex monitoring under control.

Tactile, Intuitive Workflow

With its clearly labelled, pre-defined buttons and LED feedback, the MRC is built for speed and confidence. You can mute or solo individual speakers, switch outputs and adjust levels without diving into software menus, helping you react instantly to what you hear and make better decisions in less time.

Fast, Flexible Preset Recall

A flexible five-preset recall system puts your most-used monitoring configurations at your fingertips. Instantly jump between different input sources, output routings or speaker layouts, making it easy to compare mixes, check alternate setups or move between projects without losing your flow.

Compact, Studio-Ready Design

The MRC’s compact footprint is designed to live right where you need it, within easy reach on any desk. Its metal housing with black brushed aluminium finish offers both durability and a sleek, professional look, while simple USB connectivity keeps cabling clean and setup straightforward.
