SO CLEAN! Checking Out The Presonus Quantum HD 8!

[@jonathanross1033]

Not gonna lie - loving the “gear” side of the channel beyond guitars and amps My wish list just increased by $20k over night You are the best my man!

[@BoomBoomBoom..]

For any guitarist that may not understand, Re-Amp outs = You can use all your guitar pedals like analog rack gear or like a plug-in.

[@DosHemperor]

i don't think boss roland makes anything like that? juss sayn boss is user friendly

[@realtruenorth]

​​@@DosHemperor Ok, well not everyone has Boss pedals LOL seems like a pointless comment.

Hello. I bought a Quantum HD8, but I can't get Studio One 7, how do I do it?

[@ChristianMoses]

I have the HD2 and have been extremely happy with it. Auto-gain works really well, and as a Studio One user having my input levels saved as part of each song/session is really handy. My ONLY complaint is that I would like more control over the actual output signal on reamping. I still find that If I'm recording DIs with "correct" headroom that the reamped signal is about 8db quieter. I think that's part of just the joy of reamping though. Only really matters if you're being OCD about matching your reamp level exactly with your actual guitar.

[@TheMrCull]

With the hd 2, if you plug a guitar to the di, does it override the corresponding mic pre? I was curious if it had 4 analog inputs or if it’s really only 2 at a time. Thanks!

[@ChristianMoses]

@@TheMrCull it's 2 inputs. The front instrument input overrides the mic/line input in the back when a 1/4" cable is connected.

[@justinreynolds3935]

You using correct cable?? 8db is quite a bit. May be some error there. Maybe you have select re amp in the UC area???!! I'm curious because I am considering a hd8 and wanted a re amp function.

[@ChristianMoses]

@@justinreynolds3935 I measured everything with a multimeter and did a loopback from the output into the input. If I only used vintage single coils I could bump my input gain up to 21db, but that's only 4db of overhead and I can't use that with humbuckers.

[@masadampc]

Can u do a sound quality comparison between the uad and hd8?

[@Kizamime]

he is a phenomenal drummer! so damn consistent

[@kyleadamsdrums]

thank you so much!

[@jarredbaca8112]

How did you set up direct monitoring for playing drums? Did you have to do that in the Universal Control app?

[@TrystanGreyvein]

I had nothing but issues with mine personally, wish I didnt cuz I was actually looking forward to this one, but glad it seems to work for other people

[@chrisdover8507]

What reverb were y’all using on snare? Sounded killer

[@kyleadamsdrums]

thank you! I have a UAD pure plate reverb on my far room mic but it is quite low in the mix. my space has a very lively sound.

[@charlesrocks]

32-bit…wow. PreSonus is dragging us all into the future. The headroom must be amazing. 32-bit, if I remember correctly, gives you a lot of control over the input headroom. The Universal Control features are very cool. Wow…the quantum looks to be a logical next step for Audio Interfaces. I’m stoked about this.

[@justinreynolds3935]

32 bit float isn't that much better honestly. Most aren't going to notice anything different. The 75db of gain they may for the super power hungry mics.

[@Fernrods]

Guys, I bought a Quantum HD8 and the main rotary knob has some play. Does anyone have the same interface and can tell me if the same thing happens? Thanks.

[@jakesacquitne]

“Knucks deluxe” 😂

[@booganaga123]

Could you showcase the reamp feature also?

[@angelabdonnavarreteblanco]

make a video whit the re amp outputs Fluff

[@phatcatology]

Really reminds me of the Apogee Ensemble 2 . Hmmmm!

[@misterringer]

More ins and outs are great and all, but they've had pretty solid pre's for a while. The Studio 192 sounded great but had horrible drivers. If they got their drivers sorted out, they'd be competing with the big boys.

[@justinreynolds3935]

Funny how non drummers always think of paiste cymbals as brash or bright. Yes the rude and 2002 are bright but they also make some of the darkest lush cymbals on the planet I was at a studio once and the engineer saw I had a paiste ride and hats and goes oh dude those will be to loud and bright for this song and I told him these are their dark signature stuff just try it. He went out and bought a ride next day. lol. This drummer btw drills man. And the sound was great. I am torn between this and the older quantum 2626. Or even the Audient evo16 I hear is very legit.

[@Tincad4]

Haven't seen a rate or roast my rig for a couple months? you running out of rigs to roast?

[@dmtragedy]

I was today years old when I learned Paiste is not pronounced like "paste". XD

[@realtruenorth]

LOL

[@DavidMadeira29]

I hate the auto gain, it kills that wide dynamic range almost immediately and also that much exagerated compression, everybody who was trying to pair with my channel used, while they never had to cancel the true tape hiss of the broken cassette deck. I don't know. Namastè.

[@DosHemperor]

numbBissToid. It's worth practicing with. I'm enturested

[@seanmolzhon2764]

How many interfaces they going to produce before they fix the actual problem by offer ing new DRIVERS? Beyond ridiculous! I can’t believe people fall for this same song & dance with the same issue of shit drivers. They won’t even be truthful with customers. Contact them all you want, but if you suspect it’s a driver issue, you won’t even get a response. What a colossal embarrassment that last $600 quantum was. It should have never been released to the public. Presonus is dangerously close to irrelevance. You have to wonder if it’s users have an abuse dependency.

[@justinreynolds3935]

You don't need drivers for it to work. If you want dsp or whatever. I use a 1818vsl that's 10 years old still. Just monitor through daw. That driver stuff is a joke. Universal control isn't necessary
