Get the New, Improved Mbox 2 PLUS More Great Plug-ins!
Digidesign's Mbox 2 is the follow-up to the wildly successful Mbox, with some heavy-duty improvements! The original Mbox helped thousands of musicians get into Pro Tools LE thanks to its ease of use, integration with Pro Tools software, great sonic characteristics, and affordable price. Digidesign listened to their customers and created the new, improved Mbox 2 based on that feedback. Mbox 2 sounds better on both input and output, has an integrated MIDI interface, offers more simultaneous audio I/O, and includes more free value-added software and tools. Plus, the Mbox 2 has a cool new, more flexible industrial design. And with the Mbox 2 Factory bundle, you get even more great plug-ins to accompany the included Pro Tools LE software!
Superior sound quality from new preamps and converters
Digidesign rolled up their sleeves and went to work to make sure the Mbox 2 delivers superior sound quality that easily surpasses the sound of almost any other bus-powered USB-audio interface. Mbox 2 features newly-designed mic preamps (designed by Digidesign) and new A/D and D/A converters, offering an impressive dynamic range that translates into much more headroom and a significantly lower noise floor. The result is that Mbox 2 users can record ideas more accurately and play them back in greater fidelity than ever before.
More simultaneous audio inputs
Unlike the original Mbox, Mbox 2 enables you to use the two analog inputs in conjunction with the two channels of S/PDIF digital input on the unit to achieve four simultaneous channels of audio input. That means it's easy to connect a drum machine, keyboard, sampler, or other gear and record simultaneously.
New MIDI I/O
Even with modern computers, it pays to install fewer devices and conserve bus bandwidth. Unlike the original Mbox, Mbox 2 features a MIDI in/out port, offering improved integration with MIDI controllers, hardware synthesizers and samplers, and virtual instruments. That means you don't need an additional MIDI interface!
More software tools
Mbox 2 includes more free software and tools than the original Mbox, including the new Pro Tools Ignition Pack. With Mbox 2, you have more powerful software applications, plug-ins, and other valuable tools to start creating right out of the box.
All the advantages of Pro Tools LE
Of course, the heart of the Mbox 2 system is Digidesign Pro Tools LE software. This version of the industry standard gives you incredible recording, mixing, and editing power. Pro Tools LE offers 32 simultaneous audio tracks (with 128 virtual audio tracks), fully integrated MIDI sequencing with 256 simultaneous MIDI tracks, the ability to stream ReWire applications, and the unique Beat Detective LE automatic groove analysis and correction tool. Pro Tools LE also includes 37 DigiRack plug-ins, including EQ, dynamics, delays, reverb, and much more, plus seven professional Bomb Factory plug-ins.
PLUS, five additional plug-ins!
With the Digidesign Mbox 2 Factory bundle, you get five more great plug-ins to make your mixes really sing. From the classic sound of the Moogerfooger Analog Delay to the far-out vibe (sorry, that was a '60s moment) of the Cosmonaut Voice, these additional plug-ins make the Mbox 2 Factory Bundle an even better value.
Digidesign Mbox 2 Factory Bundle Plug-Ins:
* Moogerfooger Analog Delay
* JOEMEEK SC2 Compressor
* JOEMEEK VC5 Meequalizer
* Maxim
* Cosmonaut Voice
Great new hardware design
Digidesign gave the Mbox 2 a sleek, more practical and flexible design that allows the unit to lie down flat, sit with a convenient upwards tilt for easy access to the front panel controls, or simply stand vertically to fit smaller workspaces. The Mbox 2 will easily fit into your desktop, laptop, or mobile setup!
