The Culmination Of 30 Years Of Innovation
The Quantum HD 2 features two 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 two 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, 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 2 features two 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.

Co-Developed With Fender®
Built by the best ears in the business, guitarists and bassists will love the two instrument inputs, co-developed with Fender engineers – industry experts who designed them specifically for guitar and bass.

Professional Recording Software Included
Leap into 12 months of Studio One+ add-ons, exclusive content, and tools, plus a perpetual license to Studio One Professional Edition.

Auto Gain
An Auto Gain button sets the perfect gain level for your microphones and instruments, so you get the perfect take every time.

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 works on any mobile or desktop device, so you’re ready to record whenever inspiration strikes – whether on your phone,
