Avid Mbox - USB Digital Audio Interface (Educational Discount)
- No Longer Available
This is an educational package for both individual students and institutions and requires proof of current educational status
The Mbox from Avid is their third generation USB digital audio interface that allows for recording, editing and mixing performances with the highest audio resolutions. With a comprehensive set of connectors, it's an easy matter to connect microphones, instruments, other analog, digital, and/or MIDI gear with a computer, to capture and create studio-quality productions.
The four simultaneous inputs and outputs are ideal for self recording or for capturing a small band or ensemble with the lowest possible latency. Advanced features include an integrated guitar tuner and a professional-grade soft-clip limiter to prevent distortion when tracking louder sources. And set up cue mixes with reverb using the onboard DSP.
The Mbox can be paired with most audio recording or music creation software such as Logic, Live, Fruity Loops, Cubase, and more. Or use the interface with Pro Tools (not included) for maximum speed and ease and get total session compatibility with Pro Tools studios worldwide.
Note! This is an educational package for both individual students and institutions and requires proof of current educational status.

Comments about Avid Mbox - USB Digital Audio Interface (Educational Discount):
As a High School Music Production program I see in excess on 200 students that have little or no experience with DAW's or VI software. The Mbox 3rd Gen makes it very easy to explain digital interface functions and to teach students to use the interface with a host program. Although we use Pro tools Software at this time, I like the freedom to use other host programs as well.
