Fender Studio Quantum Hd 8

A New Era in the Quantum HD Range

Designed to succeed previous generations, the Quantum HD 8 features new MAX-HD preamps with wide gain headroom, more peak-tolerant 32-bit conversion, and a color display for immediate visual feedback. Its built-in speaker switching simplifies A/B comparisons, while the Re-Amp outputs speed up guitar workflows. The result: greater transparency, ergonomics, and faster daily operation.

Built for Multitrack Recording, Creation, and Streaming

From solo artists to production studios, the Quantum HD 8 effortlessly handles multi-mic drum kits, full bands, voice-overs, or video podcasts. The two front-panel Hi-Z inputs facilitate guitar/bass recording, the loopback streamlines live broadcasts and tutorials, and the two stereo headphone outputs provide independent monitoring for engineer and artist.

Key Features for a Pro Workflow

Preamplification and Conversion

The 8 MAX-HD preamps deliver up to 75 dB of gain with 48 V phantom power and automatic gain to prevent unexpected clipping. The 32-bit/192 kHz conversion offers a wide dynamic range and ideal headroom for demanding editing and mixing.

Monitoring and Routing

With ultra-low latency direct monitoring, a high-resolution color display, and speaker switching, you make decisions faster. The Re-Amp outputs let you send your tracks to amps/effects for authentic re-amping without extra gear.

Connectivity and Expansion

Featuring 8 combo inputs, 2 instrument inputs, 2 pairs of ADAT, stereo S/PDIF, MIDI, 2 balanced TRS main outputs, and 8 line outputs, you get 26 inputs / 30 outputs ready for complex setups and expansion via external converters.

Software Control and Integration

From Studio One or the Universal Control app, manage preamps, phantom power, routing, and save your scenes. The integrated monitoring mixer and loopback streamline the entire workflow, while the Studio One+ subscription and perpetual Studio One Professional license let you start producing immediately.
