The avid mbox sound interface lets you have control over your Pro Tools software while giving you Avid’s high quality hardware in a compact package perfect for your desktop set-up. It is a great option for anyone from an acoustic music producer or a voice-over talent seeking an uncomplicated but robust recording platform. The interface is elegantly designed in a sleek black box that is powered by USB. At the connection end there is a combination of TRS ¼ jack and an XLR with a microphone preamp. There are two more inputs and two monitor outputs plus a headphone output positioned next to the impedance controls.
The front panel has the gain control for two channels and a large volume knob. The Mbox is not bundled with a software program so you can get the software you prefer and have it licensed separately. It is compatible with a wide range of audio equipment to give you utmost flexibility in your music making career.
The Mbox performs well in a test environment. Its preamp performance is better than its predecessors sounding smooth with a solid extension from top to bottom. The converter is nicely coloured giving you a warm presence reminiscent of an analogue set-up. The interface can handle recording to as high as 24-bit at 48kHz in resolution. The monitor and headphone sounds of the Mbox are clean, and have plenty of drive. It can be used your all-in-one interface solution while sitting daintily in a small compact package at your desktop. You can get more out of the Mbox with a computer that has at least a 2 gigabyte RAM, a 4 gigabyte would be optimal if you want an easier and snag-free experience when running both your Logic and Pro Tools with your Mbox. This interface is competitively priced and quite affordable if you will consider that you still have the cost of the software to worry about. With the right software program, upgrading your interface in the future would be so much affordable.
