The PreSonus Quantum HD8 is a professional-grade 26x30 audio interface engineered to deliver stunning fidelity and versatility for your project studio. Leveraging 30 years of PreSonus innovation, the Quantum HD8 combines premium components with smart workflow features to provide the performance and flexibility serious musicians need to capture pristine recordings every time.

PreSonus Quantum HD8 Front Metering

Eight Transparent MAX-HD Mic Preamps

At the core of the Quantum HD8 are eight newly redesigned MAX-HD mic preamps that represent the culmination of PreSonus' three decades of preamp design expertise. With a massive 75dB of gain range, these transparent, low-noise preamps effortlessly handle today's hottest studio mics. An Auto Gain feature dials in optimal recording levels at the touch of a button. From delicate vocals to thundering drums, the MAX-HD preamps preserve every nuance with stunning clarity.

PreSonus Quantum HD8 Instrument Inputs

Instrument Inputs Crafted for Guitarists 

Plug straight into the Quantum HD8's front-facing 1/4" inputs, codesigned in collaboration with the tone masters at Fender. These inputs were meticulously engineered to transparently capture the unique character of your guitar or bass rig. Crank up your amp to get every ounce of warmth and grit, or go direct for a pristine D.I. signal to re-amp later. With the Quantum HD8, you're getting world-class input circuitry tailored for your needs as a guitarist.

Ultralow Latency Recording Without Compromise

Thanks to PreSonus' custom low-latency drivers, the Quantum HD8 delivers exceptional recording performance with ultralow latency. You'll experience the smoothest, most natural tracking experience, free from distracting delays. And with 32-bit/192kHz converters boasting 124dB of dynamic range, every transient and nuance in your performance is captured with exquisite detail and transparency. The illuminated encoder and responsive metering provide precise level control and feedback. 

PreSonus Quantum HD8 Re-amp Inputs

Re-amp Outputs for Tone Experimentation

Two re-amp outputs give you a powerful tone-sculpting tool. Send tracks from your DAW back out to the Quantum HD8, then run them through guitar amps, pedals, speaker cabinets or other outboard gear. Capture new layers of dirt, grit and vibe by re-amping and layering over your original tracks. It's the perfect way to breathe new life into stale recordings or explore fresh tones without re-tracking everything from scratch.

PreSonus Quantum HD8 With Studio One+ Software

Powerful Software for Creative Freedom

To fuel your creativity from day one, the Quantum HD8 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.
