DESCRIPTION

Presonus AudioBox USB 96 – 25th Anniversary Edition Mac PC USB Audio Interface

The Presonus AudioBox 96 – 25th Anniversary Edition is a two-channel USB Mac PC computer audio interface. Designed to be portable, it sports 24-bit converters that sample at 44.1, 48, 88.1, or 96 kHz. Two Class-A PreSonus microphone preamps with switchable 48V phantom power, with combination jacks for 1/4" or XLR inputs, MIDI I/O, and solid drivers are part of this interface. While recording, you get zero-latency monitoring with a knob that allows you to blend signal from the preamp with signal in your DAW, giving you a tailored balance of both sources.

The interface is bundled with the Studio One Artist DAW software for Mac and Windows, and includes the Studio Magic plug-in suite, providing effects, virtual instruments, and third-party loops, software, and instrument sounds. This unit is sturdy enough to be taken on the road, though also finds its home in the studio.
