Four MAX-HD Preamps for Detailed Multi-Source Recording
The Quantum ES 4 features four newly designed MAX-HD mic preamps developed from more than three decades of PreSonus engineering. Offering up to 75dB of available gain, these transparent, low-noise preamps provide ample headroom for a wide range of microphones, including gain-hungry dynamic and ribbon models. Whether recording vocals, acoustic instruments, drum overheads or small ensembles, the MAX-HD design captures performances with clarity, consistency and detailed transient response.
Auto Gain and Intuitive Level Control
Auto Gain helps simplify session setup by automatically adjusting input levels for connected microphones and instruments. With a single button press, the Quantum ES 4 analyzes incoming signals and establishes appropriate gain settings to help prevent clipping while maintaining strong signal levels. Bright LED metering provides clear visual feedback, while the illuminated push encoder offers convenient control over preamp gain and output volume directly from the interface.
24-Bit/192kHz Conversion and Low-Latency Performance
Premium 24-bit/192kHz converters preserve the detail, dynamics and tonal character of your recordings, while a custom low-latency driver supports responsive monitoring and tracking. From microphone input to final playback, the Quantum ES 4 is engineered to provide a clean, accurate signal path suitable for music production, podcasting, streaming and other professional audio applications.
Flexible Monitoring and Creator-Friendly Workflow
The Quantum ES 4 includes two high-power headphone outputs for independent monitoring and collaborative recording sessions. Loopback audio simplifies livestreaming, podcast production and content creation, while Universal Control provides convenient access to key interface functions from compatible desktop and mobile devices. Registration also includes Fender Studio Pro software, giving creators a complete recording solution built around the PreSonus Quantum ES 4.
