Quantum ES 2

Nice to have a couple more inputs than usual. Sounds pretty good, pre amps are fine (not quite as good as the SSL2s). The auto levelling works really well. Overall quite impressive and really good value. Recommended.

Brilliant, very very good sound

Very good material. Works very well. Quantum es 2

I already have the 24c so on paper, this wasn’t that much of an upgrade (other than four rather than two channel.) However, it didn’t take long to realise the following advantages; Auto level set. I sit a distance from my desk when home recording. Using Universal Control to set a mic level with my iPhone is a game changer. Slightly better preamps. The practical advantage is that I can get a far better gain on a dynamic mic, meaning my lack of studio environment affects mic less, as my SM58 is a far tighter pattern than a condenser mic and concentrated on the frequency range you need. 48v on individual channels. I can use condenser and ribbon mics simultaneously. Two monitor outputs. At the click of a button or onscreen in Studio One I can switch instantly between monitor speakers and my HiFi, hear how it will sound to others whilst mastering. Great! My Sennheiser headphones are fairly high impedance, so a bit quiet on my 24c, but there is a far higher gain output on this ES4. Integration with Studio One. Whilst it will work with any DAW, having the controls baked into your channels is much easier. Zero latency. Not low but just about zero. Put effects on your mic to make singing a better experience, let it record dry and no latency whilst doing so, whilst maintaining a decent buffer against drop out. All with USB, no need for expensive Thunderbolt interface. Yes, I thought long and hard as I have a perfectly good interface anyway but really glad I bought it. It also added six months to my Presonus membership for the professional Studio One, meaning it cost £80 less in effect.

The manual is terrible and does not explain properly how you set this up, the mains LED kept flashing on and off and I wasent' sure what was going on at first till I watched a video on you tube to find out, it seems its because there is not enough power so why not include a proper power 13amp plug? My PC is not powerful enough to power it. So I had to find one. After it didnt recognise my email for some reason a further attempt got me through to create an account so I can download the software to get it working. Apparently the red led keeps blinking saying not enough power so I plug it in to the mains then the PC with another cable but still saying not enough power, can you believe this? not impressed. Heres the fix, if you plug it in from the Aux out to PC thunderbolt socket, its a small USB C type socket on the back of the PC next to your USBs that's if you have one not all motherboards have them. Hopefully anyone reading this will fix their problem too and if so do leave me a like. Thanks

Well it's Presonus. Have mostly Presonus gear so nice integration. Needs a lot of power to fire it up on Windows in my opinion. Needs at least a 33W charger head to power it up. Took me a while to figure that out. Nice product, beautiful and brimmed witj features

I am very impressed with this Audio Interface. It's a good build, good sound and has a power switch at the back. It looks cool too. Excellent bundle included as it comes with Studio One v7 AND 6 months subscription. Extremely pleased!

Sound quality stays good across recordings and playback. All functions work as expected and the controls feel solid. Connectivity stays stable and the device responds fast. Setup was easy through the Presonus website, installing the software and following the instructions made it clear to understand and use. I am happy with the design and how it fits on the desk.

Me gusta mucho y funciona perfecta. El acabado en metal oscuro queda mejor que en las fotos. Electrónicamente es una maravilla.

Avevo presonic studio One e volevo provarlo con la scheda usb srmpre della presonic. Infatti è un' ottima accoppiata, perfettamente compatibile.

Preamp select button has 1-2-2-4 it should be 1-2-3-4

Wie erwartet, ein super Produkt von Presonus! Weitaus mehr Funktionalität als erwartet. Sehr ansprechendes Design und leichte Integration. Wer mit Studio One arbeitet, wird hiermit zufrieden sein. Die Integration in Studio One, bringt weitere Funktionen mit sich und erleichtert die Arbeit. Auch im Jamulus erledigt es alle Aufgaben wie gewünscht.

I am using this with Studio One now Fender pro DAW and it is great. Very clean signal and very low latency.
