General
The Presonus Quantum Thunderbolt 2 audio interface has 26 inputs and 32 outputs so you can connect a serious amount of gear. The maximum signal quality for recording and playback is 24 bit/192 kHz and audiophiles will surely appreciate the high resolution converters. In terms of microphone recording, the Quantum boasts excellent results thanks to the XMAX Class A preamps.
Features of the Presonus Quantum
If you have a vocal booth in your studio, then you can use the handy built-in talkback mic to communicate with your singers. Seasoned engineers will surely appreciate the fact that they can use four Quantums at once via Thunderbolt. For live situations, the Quantum also has advantages, including preamps that can be adjusted from a distance using UC Surface software (Max, Windows, iPad) and Studio One Remote for iPad. There are also classic MIDI connections available (inputs and outputs) as well as wordclock (in and out).
