Timeless Sound
PreSonus approached the design of the Quantum 2626 with one thing in mind: ultra-high speed, with no audio-quality compromise.
To achieve this, PreSonus worked to develop the Quantum-series proprietary Thunderbolt driver from the ground up, reulting in minimal-latency performance with maximum efficiency.
Along with the afore-mentioned transparent XMAX preamp, this audio interface features cutting-edge 24-bit, 192 kHz converters with a whopping 115 dB of dynamic range, and incredible low-jitter clocking.
Expansive Audio
With its impressive speed and awesome sound quality, the Quantum 2626 makes an incredible recording solution to any size of studio.
If you need more mic preamps though, you can connect to the awesome PreSonus DigiMax DP88 via ADAT/dual S/MUX connections, whilst you can control those extra inputs remotely via Studio One or UC Surface.
In addition to this, the Quantum 2626 comes equipped with a pair of direct preamp outputs and dedicated returns, allowing you to insert your favourite analogue compressors and plug-ins with ease.
Award-Winning Recording Software
To complete the recording-studio-ready package, the Quantum 2626 comes complete withthe Studio One Artist music production software.
This award-winning software is intuitive to use, and allows you to compose, record, and produce with relative ease.
