Product Description
The Fender Quantum HD 8 is a powerful USB-C audio interface designed for full-band recordings, hybrid studios and creators who need serious I/O without sacrificing speed or sound quality. With 26 inputs and 30 outputs, MAX-HD mic preamps, 32-bit / 192 kHz converters and ultra-low-latency drivers, it delivers pristine, detailed audio and a smooth workflow whether you are tracking, mixing or streaming.
Building on the streamlined workflow of the HD 2, the Quantum HD 8 adds expanded analogue and digital connectivity, flexible monitoring and ADAT expansion, making it ideal for larger sessions and more complex production setups. Front-panel Fender instrument inputs, Auto Gain and dedicated re-amp outputs keep guitar and bass players in the creative zone, while onboard DSP monitor mixing and loopback routing make it easy to handle cue mixes, live streaming and content creation without extra hardware.
With control over preamp gain, phantom power and output routing via Fender Studio Pro or the Universal Control app, the Quantum HD 8 integrates neatly into modern studio rigs. ADAT I/O and an ADAT preamp standalone mode allow you to scale your system as your needs grow, turning the HD 8 into a flexible hub for everything from writing sessions to full-band productions.
Studio-grade sound and performance
At the heart of the Quantum HD 8 are MAX-HD mic preamps and 32-bit / 192 kHz converters, capturing every nuance of vocals, acoustic instruments and line-level sources with impressive clarity and headroom. Ultra-low-latency drivers keep the recording experience responsive, so performers can play naturally while monitoring through plug-ins and virtual instruments without distraction.
Front-panel Fender instrument workflow
Dedicated front-facing Fender instrument inputs make it quick and easy to plug in guitars and basses without reaching around the back of your rack or desk. Auto Gain helps you hit the sweet spot in seconds, while re-amp outputs let you send recorded tracks back out to your favourite amps and pedals for creative tone shaping and analogue warmth.
Expandable I/O for growing studios
With 26 inputs and 30 outputs, plus ADAT inputs and outputs, additional TRS line outputs and MIDI I/O, the Quantum HD 8 is ready for multi-mic drum setups, full-band tracking and complex hybrid mixes. ADAT preamp standalone mode allows the unit to serve as an expandable front end in larger systems, so you can add more inputs and outputs without replacing your core interface.
Flexible monitoring and software control
Built-in DSP monitor mixing and loopback routing provide flexible headphone and monitor mixes for artists, as well as simple capture of system audio for streaming and content creation. Preamp gain, phantom power and output levels can all be controlled via Fender Studio Pro or the Universal Control app, giving you precise, recallable control from your computer or compatible device. The included perpetual Fender Studio Pro licence means you can get to work straight away with an integrated recording and production environment.
Features
- 26 x 30 channel USB-C audio interface - A generous 26 inputs and 30 outputs provide ample connectivity for multi-mic drum kits, full bands, hardware synths and outboard gear, allowing you to keep everything plugged in and ready to record without constant repatching.
- MAX-HD mic preamps with 32-bit / 192 kHz conversion - High-headroom MAX-HD mic preamps and 32-bit / 192 kHz converters capture detailed, low-noise recordings with plenty of dynamic range, so your vocals, instruments and line sources sound clean, open and professional.
- Front-facing Fender instrument inputs, Auto Gain and re-amp outputs - Plug straight into the front panel with your guitar or bass, let Auto Gain set an ideal level in moments and use the dedicated re-amp outputs to send recorded tracks back through amps and pedals for authentic, re-amped tones.
- ADAT expansion, flexible monitoring and software control - ADAT I/O, additional TRS line outputs, MIDI I/O, DSP-powered monitor mixing and loopback routing make it easy to expand your studio, create custom cue mixes and manage streaming audio, all controllable via Fender Studio Pro or the Universal Control app.
