Description
The DiGiCo X-Q326-W-WS-PREM-ST delivers the advanced processing power of the Quantum 326 platform with integrated Waves SoundGrid and Standard (ST) fiber connectivity. Powered by seventh-generation FPGA technology, it provides ultra-low latency, exceptional processing capacity, and outstanding reliability for touring, broadcast, theatre, and installed sound applications. Supporting up to 128 input channels, 64 fully processed buses, and a 24×24 matrix, the console is designed to handle demanding productions while maintaining DiGiCo's intuitive and efficient workflow.
Integrated Waves SoundGrid
Built-in Waves SoundGrid connectivity allows engineers to utilize industry-leading Waves plugins with extremely low latency during live productions. When paired with a compatible SoundGrid server, the console supports premium EQs, compressors, reverbs, and other studio-grade processing directly from the Quantum interface. This seamless integration expands creative possibilities while maintaining the speed, flexibility, and reliability expected in professional live sound environments.
Professional Dual-Screen Workflow
The Quantum 326 features two ultra-bright 17-inch, 1000-nit multitouch displays that provide excellent visibility under any lighting conditions. Fifty-one dedicated TFT channel displays complement the 26 motorized 100mm touch-sensitive faders and two assignable user faders, providing engineers with immediate access to channel information and precise control. The intuitive dark-mode interface, integrated metering, and customizable workflow help maximize efficiency during complex productions.
Ultimate Stadius Audio Quality
Ultimate Stadius 32-bit analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters deliver exceptional sonic performance with outstanding clarity, dynamic range, and ultra-low distortion. Eight local microphone/line inputs and eight local line outputs preserve signal integrity from source to output, while advanced FPGA processing ensures transparent audio across every channel, bus, and matrix. This premium audio architecture is ideal for professional live sound, theatre, broadcast, and corporate events.
Standard (ST) Fiber Connectivity
This model is equipped with Standard (ST) connectors for dependable Optocore fiber networking in professional production environments. The console also includes up to six MADI interfaces at 48 kHz or three redundant MADI connections, dual DMI expansion slots, four stereo AES/EBU inputs and outputs, and a built-in UB MADI USB recording interface. These connectivity options provide seamless integration with stage racks, recording systems, broadcast facilities, and large-scale digital audio networks.
Advanced FPGA Processing Suite
The X-Q326-W-WS-PREM-ST includes DiGiCo's complete FPGA-based processing package as standard. Mustard Processing delivers premium channel EQ and dynamics, Spice Rack provides powerful native FPGA effects with ultra-low latency, Nodal Processing enables sophisticated routing and signal management, and True Solo offers accurate monitoring throughout the signal path. Combined with Waves SoundGrid integration and Ultimate Stadius 32-bit conversion, this console delivers a comprehensive professional mixing solution for today's most demanding live audio productions
