THE CULMINATION OF 30 YEARS OF INNOVATION

The HD 8 features eight newly redesigned high-definition MAX-HD mic preamps with +75 dB of gain – making it ideally suited for today’s most popular microphones. Guitarists and bassists will love the instrument inputs, which were co-developed with Fender engineers. An Auto Gain button sets the perfect gain level for your microphones and instruments. You also get two re-amp outputs so you can send audio from your DAW to your guitar or bass amp and re-record it to experiment with different amps, pedals, and mic placements. An illuminated push encoder provides flexible control over gain level and output volume, and bright and responsive LED metering provides easy visual feedback for your outputs – making it great for self-produced recording.

HIGH PERFORMANCE SIGNAL FLOW

Our custom low-latency driver provides exceptionally low audio latencies when recording, and high-performance converters with 124 dB dynamic range let you hear and capture audio with stunning clarity and fidelity.

ALL-NEW MAX-HD MIC PREAMPS

The Quantum HD 8 features eight newly designed mic preamps with +75 dB of gain. Our high-definition MAX-HD preamps are transparent, low-noise, and digitally-controlled analog, making them ideally suited to today’s most popular microphones.

RE-AMP OUTPUTS

Re-amp audio directly from your DAW and use amps and effects to sculpt your sounds. Send audio from your DAW to your guitar or bass amp and re-record it to experiment with different amps, pedals, and mic placements.

UNIVERSAL CONTROL APP

Quantum interfaces work on any mobile or desktop device, so you’re ready to record whenever inspiration strikes – whether on your phone, tablet, or in your home studio. Critical preamp functions like preamp gain, phantom power, and more can be controlled with the Quantum HD 8’s flexible front panel, or right from Studio One and the Universal Control app, so you can dial in the perfect gain staging without looking away from your recording session. Universal Control and your Quantum HD 8 also enable speaker switching—easily check your mixes on two different speaker sets for accuracy.
