![]() Getting started was very difficult for me, not too sure if it was just me or what. It took me forever to figure it out and it was still buggy and gave me all sorts of problems during recording. Digidesign told me it would be a breeze to set it up in cubase but it was far from easy. I didn’t want to use Pro tools I wanted to use a daw that I was comfortable with. Well I had no installation problems, but the issue was using it in my daw at the time which was cubase I think. I am ok with pro tools now, it was just a little to complex for me then. Mine came with Pro tools 7 at the time which I absolutely hated with a passion at the time. It comes with a handle on it for portability when taking it from place to place.

I have a million more problems with my 003 and HD system and this one never lets me down!Įverything is encased in Digidesign's signature gray and blue casing. It does what it's supposed to and always functions properly. I have used this unit for 5 years and as a mobile rig for the past 3 years and have found no problems with it.

Other controls include 48v Phantom Power, Mix, monitor, and headphone knobs. Each of the two channels offers a pad and switch to change from mic to DI. The Focusrite pre's are very transparent and I have even done overdubs at home for professional recordings using them. The Mbox 2 is the perfect interface for people looking to record voice-overs, scratch tapes, and any other recordings up to 4 simultaneous tracks.
