A quantum leap in audio clarity and performance.
The culmination of three decades of PreSonus innovation, Quantum HD are the ultimate recording audio interfaces for project studios and full band recordings. Leveraging the PreSonus legacy of affordable, high-end studio products, Quantum HD interfaces deliver stunning audio clarity and high-fidelity performance.
Fueled by 30 years of design experience.
Quantum HD interfaces come in desktop or rack-mountable chassis packed with pristine MAX-HD preamps, custom low-latency drivers, and high-performance, class-leading converters with 124 dB dynamic range for studio professionals.
High-definition front panel.
Plug into instrument inputs co-developed by Fender engineers and specifically designed for guitar and bass. Set the perfect gain level on microphones and instruments with easy-to-use Auto Gain. And exercise intuitive control over features, channels, and output settings with a full-color, high-res screen and illuminated push encoder.
Fully-loaded back panel.
HD back panels feature rigorously redesigned MAX-HD mic preamps delivering transparent, low-noise, digitally-controlled analog. With +75 dB of gain range, MAX-HD preamps are ideally suited for today's most popular mics. Back-panel main- and line-outs also allow for built-in speaker switching across multiple sets of studio monitors — and with HD 8, you get up to 16 channels of ADAT Optical input (up to 48 kHz) plus stereo S/PDIF I/O.
Your route to re-amping.
Quantum HD Re-amp outputs let you send audio from your DAW to your favorite outboard gear and record it again, so you can experiment with different amps, pedals, and mic placement to get the exact, sculpted sound you want without cutting multiple takes.
Access to Studio One Pro recording software included with all Quantum interfaces.
Quantum interfaces include completely free, 6-month (Quantum ES) or 12-month (Quantum HD) memberships to Studio One Pro+, a complete music production ecosystem including access to Studio One Pro recording software, collaboration tools, sample and loop libraries, add-ons, and exclusive learning content. No credit card required. And with Quantum HD interfaces, you'll also get a Studio One Pro Perpetual License—yours to keep after your 12-month membership ends.
Already a Studio One Pro+ member? You can stack your free membership period onto your current plan when you register your Quantum ES or HD interface.
