Simple,Convenient, Reliable, and Portable

Ifyou are a mobile musician or podcaster on a tight budget who reliesmostly on software except for a couple of mics or instruments, and yourcomputer is equipped with USB but not FireWire, we have just therecording interface for you: the AudioBox USB.

Thissimple, handy little box connects to a computer via USB 1.1, so itworks with virtually any PC or Mac, not just newer models. And it hasjust the right features for your basic recording needs—neither more norless.

TheAudioBox USB may be small and simple, but it boasts PreSonus qualityinside and out. It offers excellent audio performance, thanks to twodual-purpose front-panel mic/instrument inputs with sweet-soundingClass A mic preamplifiers and professional-quality, 24-bit convertersthat sample at up to 48 kHz.

Youget a pair of line-level outputs and an ultra-loud, crystal-clearheadphone output. MIDI In and Out ports ensure that you can use controlsurfaces and keyboards without requiring a separate MIDI interface.

Thisis a mobile interface in the best sense of the term. It weighs just 5pounds and can sit on a tabletop or can be mounted in 1/3 of arackspace. It’s powered by the USB bus, so you don’t have to mess witha “wall wart” power supply or AC cord. And it’s built to withstand therigors of travel.
