  • Great for Home Studios

    As reviewed by Daniel Blacktin on 1/10/2010

    I've been making music for about 3 years and I didn't know what to use. I had started with a USB Condenser and Cool Edit Pro. Then upgraded to Adobe Audition using an AKG Perception 120 and an M-Audio Interface. The sound the m-box produces is amazing. I recommend to buy if you are looking for a good sound.

  • Just Enough

    As reviewed by AlexRkstr on 1/5/2007

    I decided to get the Mbox Mini to upgrade from a 16bit interface to a 24 and it was worth it. The preams in the unit are great I can hear my guitars through the PODxt 10 times more clear. The Quality of the unit is not the best, I was dissapointed when plugging in the USB cord that it wiggled and also the 1/4' inputs seemed to be damaging something when plugged in. It's a little box after all. I liked the phantom power, good enough for my MXL 990. Recorded stereo guitar, my keyboard and voice and the unit did great. Software that comes with it: the sequencer is good considering I used Cubase before. The plugins leave much to be desired. The bundled softwaere will help you if you are a beginner, not what a mid level is looking for. It's a good little box for someone who wants PT or someone who wants to upgrade. Its a good competitor with the market in his area.

  • I like the software and Hardware, But not Support

    As reviewed by Peymon on 8/19/2010

    I purchased this unit a month ago and I am a Mac User (MacBook Pro) ProTool 8.03 installed on my Mac no issues , I even like the DVD that it came with it with step by step on how to use the Pro tool. But , the driver was causing noise within Pro tool and Logic on my mac.. And I was to do a recording that day and no one in Guitar center and or Pro tool was able to help. Out of Curiosity I check the download section of the Pro tool LE for Snow Leopard OSX 10.6.4 and wallah ...There is an upgrade to 8.04 for Pro Tool LE and once downloaded (Big File) and installed , problem was resolved.. , It also works well with Reason and Logic Rewired. I hope this helps some one...else...
