DiGiCo QUANTUM 7 DIGITAL MIXING CONSOLE

The DiGiCo Quantum 7 is a dual engine, 256 channel mixing console with 52 physical faders and 3 x 15” LCD high-resolution touchscreens. Combining the extraordinary might of three large-scale FPGAs, the Quantum 7 redefines digital mixing consoles.

QUANTUM-THE POWER OF THREE

Where once it was impossible to efficiently build an engine with more than one FPGA, now Quantum 7 brings you the extraordinary might of three large-scale FPGAs working in unison. Inside the Quantum engine, up to 2,000 channels can be transported across 688 processing paths at 96kHz. New GTX ports run at 6.6GHz while simple two-wire connections ensure the fastest possible data speeds to reach a new pinnacle in mixing capability. Fully scalable and designed to communicate seamlessly with the next generation of FPGAs, the Quantum engine is a uniquely formidable platform for an ambitious industry.

UNDER THE HOOD

Quantum 7 places the world’s most flexible and feature-rich mixing experience at your fingertips. Standard channel processing across both inputs and outputs includes Channel Delay, DiGiTuBe, Single and Multi-Channel Presets, Dual insert points, Hi- and Lo-pass filters at 24dB/octave, four-band parametric EQ (eight on outputs) with band curve selection, and Dynamic EQ on each band, DiGiCo’s DYN 1 (Compressor, De-Esser or Multiband Compressor) and DYN 2 (Gate, Compressor or Ducker). All of this is before the arrival of Mustard Processing, a fully integrated suite of additional processing that can be assigned to any strip to boost your mix with a range of modeled preamps, vintage dynamics units, and EQ sections, all only a touch away.

The master section incorporates 48 gangable 48 bands graphic EQs, 48 stereo effects, and 36 control groups (VCAs); using snapshots, you can now switch between complete configurations in any live environment more quickly and easily than ever before, be it during rehearsals, set-up or even mid-show. In addition, 128 busses are assignable as mono/stereo groups or auxiliaries, while a 48×48 output matrix, dual solo busses with True Solo, and an LR/LCR/5.1 Master buss is available for even deeper configurability. Last but not least, with the inclusion of patented Nodal Processing, engineers now enjoy more creativity than was previously possible – for the first time, processing can be applied to any node on the auxiliary section of the console, allowing engineers to send unique processing on each sends from single or multiple channels.
