The Quantum HD 8 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 codeveloped 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.
