Hmmmmm... the only problems people have had is PC ownders with various driver issues and getting their particular computer happy with the software... All the Mac users LOVE it! This is amazing bang for the buck. The new Mbox is a big step up in quality from the old and the bundle is da shizzle!
It is extremely difficult to set up. I had to purchase additional equipment in order to get it to work to my satisfaction. Technical suppport is almost non-existent. I have several other products that do a more efficient job and cost less. It IS a good quality product but better results may be obtained by other (and cheaper) programs.
I have been looking for a set up that gives your true sound on guitar. I run my 5150 amp threw the Mbox 2 and my tone does not suffer. I sound just like I do during practice. But to get that sound you want you got to really know what you are doing. Thank you Pro Tools and Mbox 2.
