Mbox System Overview

Each Mbox system includes Pro Tools LE software, a host of DigiRack plug-ins, the Music Production Enhancement Suite, and the recently integrated Free Bomb Factory plug-ins.

The Essentials

Mbox is a full-featured, USB-powered studio-in-a-box that works with your Window XP- or Mac OS X-based computer to give you a compact, portable, professional-quality audio production system. Comprised of a small, upright I/O unit and featuring 2 Focusrite mic preamps, Mbox works in conjunction with your computer and your Pro Tools LE software to provide the firepower necessary for quality results. Complementing Mbox's analog and digital I/O, Pro Tools LE software offers 32 tracks of simultaneous record and playback, 128 virtual tracks, 256 MIDI tracks, and a host of additional features. As with all Pro Tools systems, it also ships with a variety of free bundled software tools and plug-ins, including Moogerfooger Analog Delay, Joemeek SC2 Compressor, Joemeek VC5 Meequalizer, Cosmonaut Voice, and Maxim. From beginning to end, Mbox places you in an ideal position to realize any project.

Enhancers

While Mbox is fully functional in and of itself, many products are available to increase the scope and performance of your Mbox-based Pro Tools LE environment. High-powered RTAS (real-time) and AudioSuite (file-based) plug-ins, designed and built by Digidesign and its Development Partners, are available for virtually every signal processing, sound design, and specialized editing purpose. These software applications work in conjunction with Pro Tools LE in both non- realtime and realtime formats, emulating and often improving on the hardware counterparts that they frequently emulate. The addition of a FireWire drive is also a wise choice, improving the performance of your system by virtue of increased throughput and data transfer speeds. And you always have access to upgrades and updates to Pro Tools LE software, typically available for free to registered users, as we continue to develop new ways of improving your Pro Tools experience.

Included With All Pro Tools LE Systems

When you buy a Pro Tools LE interface you get an incredible Music Production Enhancement Suite that includes Reason Adapted, Ableton Live Digidesign Edition, IK Multimedia SampleTank SE, IK Multimedia AmpliTube LE, and IK Multimedia T-RackS EQ.

Reason Adapted

An easy-to-use studio package providing a
virtual rack of innovative synthesizers, samplers, and effects along with a mixer and MIDI support. All sound from Reason Adapted can be streamed directly into the Pro Tools mixer via ReWire for additional processing.

Ableton Live Digidesign Edition

A flexible, incredibly intuitive sample sequencer application that enables you to create, modify, and play back loops, phrases, and songs via Ableton's "elastic audio" technology. Multiple
samples can be automatically played back simultaneously at a user-defined tempo, and, as with Reason, all audio readily finds its way into Pro Tools via ReWire.

IK Multimedia AmpliTube LE

A guitar processing plug-in, AmpliTube LE gives
you easy access to several amplifier and cabinet
models as well as classic stompbox and other
effects. Use them on guitars and/or experiment with other track treatments.

IK Multimedia T-RackS EQ

The EQ module from IK Multimedia's acclaimed T-RackS analog mastering suite, T-RackS EQ, offers Pro Tools users a powerful, tube-modeled parametric EQ to use during mixing and mastering.

IK Multimedia SampleTank SE

A powerful sample playback module providing quick access to a host of included samples and the ability to move easily between them. Acting as a plug-in within the Pro Tools mixer, SampleTank SE enables you to start creating in Pro Tools immediately.
