Complete Hardware/Software Recording Kit
Everything You Need to Record and Produce at Home
AudioBox 96 Studio ultimate is a complete recording and production bundle. Get everything you need to start recording guitar (or anything else) in a single purchase!
You get:
The AudioBox 96 USB two-channel audio interface
M7 condenser microphone
HD7 headphones
Eris E3.5 monitor speakers
Studio One Artist
Studio Magic software suite
The heart of the AudioBox 96 Studio is PreSonus' best-selling AudioBox USB® 96 interface, which captures your recordings in stellar studio quality. Its two front-mounted combo XLR and ¼" combo jacks let you connect a pair of mics for vocals, acoustic guitar or electric guitar cabinets. Alternatively, you can simply plug your electric guitars in directly and record direct, using Studio One Artist's Ampire for world-class guitar amp and cab tones - and without your cranked Bassman angering your neighbors. And since there are two inputs, you and a friend can record guitar and bass or vocals and guitar simultaneously to separate tracks to mix later.
The M7 large-diaphragm condenser microphone is the perfect mic for capturing acoustic guitar, but it doubles well on vocals, and the stand is included. The crystal-clear HD7 headphones will help you avoid any mic feedback issues during your recordings, let you closely monitor your performance, and also let you mix and produce late into the night without bothering anybody.
Also included are PreSonus' best-selling Eris E3.5 monitor speakers. Unlike consumer-grade bookshelf speakers, monitors are tuned for a flat frequency response, meaning there's no over-hyped bass or under-represented midrange. When recording and producing music, it's important to hear an honest, accurate representation of what you're actually recording. The Eris E3.5s are as honest as speakers in their class can be, and you'll probably find yourself using them for regular ol' music listening as well.
Finally, you get over $1000 USD of inspiring professional audio software - including Studio One Artist and the Studio Magic Suite, so your productions will be a step ahead from day one.
We even include all the cables required to hook it all up, so you'll hit the ground running right out of the box and get your creative vision out into the world faster than anyone else.
