High-fidelity capture for demanding sessions
The Quantum HD 2 focuses on accuracy across complex recording setups. MAX-HD mic preamps work alongside 32-bit, 192 kHz converters to deliver clean, detailed audio with wide dynamic range. Ultra-low-latency drivers ensure monitoring feels responsive, which is important during performance-heavy sessions.
This combination supports vocals, acoustic instruments, electric guitars, and full-band recordings with consistent results, helping project studios achieve reliable sound quality without relying on additional hardware.
Flexible digital I/O for growing studios
With a 20 x 24 I/O configuration, the HD 2 adapts easily to expanding setups. Expanded digital connectivity includes 16 channels of ADAT and S/PDIF I/O, allowing integration with external preamps, converters, and digital gear. This flexibility supports multi-mic drum tracking, hardware inserts, and complex routing. Despite its compact footprint, the interface provides the connectivity needed for evolving studio requirements.
Instrument recording and re-amping made simple with Auto Gain
Front-facing Fender-designed instrument inputs are tuned specifically for guitar and bass, delivering transparent recordings ready for processing or mixing. Auto Gain helps set levels quickly, reducing interruptions during creative moments.
Dedicated re-amp outputs allow recorded tracks to be sent back through amps and pedals, supporting tonal experimentation without re-recording performances. This workflow suits producers who want flexibility while keeping sessions efficient.
Integrated control and production tools
DSP monitor mixing and loopback routing support modern production needs such as streaming, podcasting, and remote collaboration. Gain, phantom power, and monitoring can be adjusted remotely using Fender Studio Pro or Universal Control, keeping control within reach during sessions.
Complete with Fender Studio Pro - perpetual licence
Fender Studio Pro is a full-featured digital audio workstation (DAW) designed to help musicians, producers, and creators write, record, edit, mix and master music in a single, professional environment.
The software brings together Fender’s celebrated amp and effects modelling, including Mustang and Rumble plugins, with advanced DAW features such as drag-and-drop workflows, Channel and Arrangement Overviews for clearer session navigation, and AI-assisted tools like chord suggestion and audio-to-MIDI conversion to streamline creativity. Its updated design makes it easier for guitarists at all levels to lay down ideas quickly while still offering the depth needed for full productions.
