Description

PreSonus AudioBox USB 96 MIDI Interface 25th-Anniversary desktop 2×2 USB audio interface offers Class-A mic preamps with phantom power, MIDI I/O, and simple operability in a portable and sturdy steel chassis that is conveniently bus-powered.

The PreSonus AudioBox USB 96 MIDI Interface 25th-Anniversary utilizes 24-bit converters at sampling rates up to 96 kHz to ensure the integrity and detail of your signals, whether recording or mixing. The two XLR-1/4″ combo inputs let you record microphones (dynamic or condenser) or instruments such as electric guitar while monitoring with zero latency via the adjustable direct monitor mix.

With two 1/4″ line/monitor outs and a stereo headphone output, the interface can drive a set of speakers and headphones while offering independent volume controls for both. If you have MIDI gear such as a keyboard controller, synthesizer, or drum machine, simply connect them to the interface’s 5-pin MIDI ports to smoothly integrate them into your production setup.

The PreSonus AudioBox USB 96 MIDI Interface 25th-Anniversary is bundled with Studio One Artist DAW software for Mac and Windows and includes the Studio Magic plug-in suite, delivering a host of effects, virtual instruments, and third-party loops, software, and instruments sounds.

Class-A Microphone Preamps

The PreSonus AudioBox USB 96 MIDI Interface 25th-Anniversary two Class-A mic preamps treat your sources to sound quality typical of more expensive devices. With switchable 48V phantom power and XLR-1/4″ combo inputs, the interface is more than capable of accommodating dynamic or condenser microphones and electric instruments such as guitar, bass, and keyboard.

High-Resolution Converters

Boasting support for digital resolutions up to 24-bit / 96 kHz, the AudioBox USB 96 is equipped to perform AD/DA conversion with clarity and precision. It can also serve as a quality DAC for playback of high-resolution files from your computer.

Headphone and Monitor Outputs

Thanks to the interface’s two 1/4″ line/monitor outputs and stereo headphone output, you can easily hook up a pair of speakers and studio headphones and independently adjust their volume levels via separate knobs on the front panel.

Latency-Free Monitoring

The PreSonus AudioBox USB 96 MIDI Interface 25th-Anniversary features a direct monitor function with a mix control, allowing you to make the perfect blend of the zero-latency live input signal and the return signal from your computer.

MIDI I/O

Integration of MIDI equipment is no problem for the PreSonus AudioBox USB 96 MIDI Interface. It offers traditional 5-pin MIDI I/O for straightforward connectivity with common gear such as a MIDI keyboard controller, synthesizer, or drum machine.

Bus Powered over USB

Travel light with the PreSonus AudioBox USB 96 MIDI Interface; it is powered via a USB connection (USB cable included) to your Mac or Windows computer, so you don’t need to bring an external power supply.

Sturdy and Small
