Ideal for project studios, drum recording, ensembles, and electronic musicians, the Fender Quantum LT 16 is a 16x8 USB-C audio interface combining PreSonus conversion with two Fender-designed Hi-Z instrument inputs. With eight XLR-1/4" combo mic/line inputs on the front, DC-coupled outputs, and eight balanced line inputs, this interface can handle projects big and small.

The eight line inputs feature selectable +4 dBu or -10 dBV operation, ensuring they can support mic preamps, synths, mixers, and many other devices. With front-panel jacks, the Quantum LT 16 sports 14 line inputs total. The eight MAX-HD mic preamps provide up to 75 dB of transparent gain. The interface offers a balanced 1/4" TRS stereo pair for the main output and six DC-coupled 1/4" outputs for integrating modular and analog synthesizers. The 5-pin DIN MIDI I/O keeps you synchronized with legacy MIDI hardware. AD/DA up to 24-bit / 192 kHz ensures pristine audio quality. With features like loopback for podcasting, standalone Mixer mode for DAW-free mixing, and Mic Pre mode for using the interface as a pure eight-mic preamp, the Quantum LT 16 can bend to fit any application, private or professional. The Quantum LT 16 includes a free perpetual license for Fender Studio Pro.
