PreSonus Quantum HD2 20x24 Audio Interface

Description

Harness the full potential of your studio with the PreSonus Quantum HD2 audio interface. Leveraging nearly 30 years of design expertise, the Quantum HD2 delivers the pristine sound quality and intuitive workflow serious musicians need to capture inspired performances. Its cutting-edge converters and low-latency drivers preserve every nuance, while innovative features like re-amp outputs and Auto Gain streamline recording like never before.

Next-Generation MAX-HD Mic Preamps

At the heart of the Quantum HD2 are two newly designed MAX-HD mic preamps boasting an incredible +75dB of gain range. These transparent, low-noise preamps utilize digitally controlled analog circuitry to provide stunning clarity and headroom for today's most popular studio mics. You'll experience open, natural-sounding recordings with a wide dynamic range free of unwanted noise or coloration. Whether capturing vocals, acoustic instruments or amplified sources, the MAX-HD preamps deliver pristine quality from input to output.

Fender-Designed Instrument Inputs

For guitarists and bassists, the Quantum HD2 features two dedicated instrument inputs codeveloped with the experts at Fender. These front-facing 1/4" jacks are engineered specifically to handle the impedance characteristics of electric guitar and bass pickups. You'll enjoy uncompromising tone with a tight, focused low end and articulate highs that let every note ring true. Whether recording searing leads or pounding rhythms, the Quantum HD2 captures every nuance of your signature sound with stunning realism.

Cleaner Recording With Auto Gain

Dialing in the perfect gain staging for microphones and instruments is now easier than ever with the Quantum HD2's Auto Gain function. With a simple press of a button, Auto Gain automatically sets optimal input levels for your connected sources. You'll spend less time fiddling with gain knobs and more time focused on nailing your best takes. Auto Gain delivers pro-quality gain settings right out of the gate, streamlining session setup for quicker recording. Another major plus is the 32-bit/192kHz converters that provide 124dB of dynamic range in your recording, so it’s almost impossible to cause clipping inside of your DAW. 

Re-Amp Outputs for Creative Tone Sculpting

The Quantum HD2 gives you two re-amp outputs that open up a new world of tone-shaping possibilities. Simply route any recorded track from your DAW through these outputs and directly into a guitar or bass amp. You can then rerecord the amp's output with different mic placements, effects pedals and more. The re-amp workflow lets you experiment with fresh tones and production tricks long after the original performance was captured. It's an inspiring way to keep your creative juices flowing.

Powerful Software for Creative Freedom

To fuel your creativity from day one, the Quantum HD2 includes a one-year subscription to PreSonus' acclaimed Studio One+ recording software and its associated plug-ins, sound packs, tutorials, updates and a robust user community. This DAW provides unlimited track counts, advanced editing tools, third-party plug-in support, and a wealth of virtual instruments and loops. The Studio One+ Professional edition gives you all the production power you need to craft impressive recordings. A Universal Control app also lets you adjust settings and monitor levels remotely from your desktop, tablet or smartphone.
