The PreSonus AudioBox USB 2x2 USB recording system is an excellent solution for achieving high-quality, professional-sounding recordings no matter where you are. The AudioBox USB is a USB bus-powered audio recording interface loaded with 2 microphone/instrument inputs with 48V phantom power, 2 balanced TRS outputs, and MIDI I/O so you can stay portable without sacrificing your sound. The AudioBox USB also comes with Studio One Artist music creation and production software which has the same platform and intuitive interface as Studio One Pro but with an unlimited track count so you can start recording right out of the box.
PreSonus Audio has won numerous awards for designing quality microphone preamplifiers for all price levels. The AudioBox USB is loaded with preamps that deliver high headroom, low noise, and high gain to give you pure, full, and rich sound. Most USB recording devices operate at a 16-bit sample rate and use converters with dynamic ranges of less than 90dB which gives you a pinched and relatively small sound. The AudioBox USB, however, uses professional-grade analog to digital converters with a dynamic range of 102dB and 24-bit sample rate so that the digital conversion is big, quiet, and musical, making it one of the best sounding USB bus-powered interface on the market.
The AudioBox USB is bus-powered giving you the flexibility you need with no wall warts, line lumps, or power cables. Just plug in to a powered USB port and you are ready to record. The AudioBox USB is housed in an all-metal chassis with metal knobs able to withstand the rigors of travel and your touring adventures. Just toss the AudioBox USB in your laptop bag and mobilize your music creation and production. Whether you're recording your shows, creating a mix on the plane, or writing songs in your hotel room, the AudioBox is ready to go.

I also own the Firepod that I use with my G5 tower. I needed something small and portable to use with my MacBook Pro and since Presonus and Mac are made for each other with never a glitch, never a driver to install or upgrade, plug and play, easy to use - it's a no brainer. It's small, lightweight, sounds great, works all the time. It has phantom power, XLR, TRS, 1/4" MIDI, and is powered by USB. How simple is that?
I bought this interface for my live rig. Operating a laptop with plugs. CPU usage absolutly had to as minimul as possible. No complaints about this unit. USB powered. Drivers are very non-parasitic to the CPU usage. MIDI in and out is a very convienient feature. Very pleased. I have a Presonus 1394 in the studio that I've been using for about 8 months now and its been flawless. Presonus makes good products, you just have to pay attenion to the system requirements before you buy.
This is a very nice product.. i was going to get the mbox but did not have enough cash for it.So the tech guy suggested this instead and it preforms excellent!! Very Easy to use plug and play!! very strong!!I like to do my music on the go and it goes everywere with me and my laptop! If your low in money but wanting top quality i suggest this usb driver.. one of the best things is that it becomes your sound card and the quality it produces will blow your mind!! Get it and make music everywere!!!!
