ProTools



I know that I just posted a blog about the mbox family. Since then there was a neat addition to the family.

MBOX 2 Micro
As the much anticipated answer to one of the top requests from Pro Tools users, ultra-small Mbox 2 Micro enables Pro Tools users to edit, sequence, and mix sessions created on Pro Tools|HD, Pro Tools LE, and Pro Tools M-Powered systems on the go, as well as compose music with virtual instruments and loops.

About the size of a typical USB flash drive, Mbox 2 Micro offers high-quality 24-bit / 48 kHz sound, a 1/8-inch stereo output for headphone or speaker monitoring (no audio inputs*), and a convenient volume wheel, providing you with the freedom of true editing, sequencing, and mixing mobility. Whether you’re looking to work on studio-created or live sound Pro Tools sessions on the go, or create loop-based or virtual instrument-driven music, Mbox 2 Micro lets you work wherever inspiration takes you.

Hardware
Mbox 2 Micro sports a slick yet rugged anodized aluminum casing that’s small enough to fit in any size pocket, making it the ultimate mobile Pro Tools® editing and mixing solution.

Ultra-portable, anodized aluminum design for on-the-go editing, mixing, and music creation

High-quality sound up to 24-bit, 48 kHz (higher sample rates require pre-conversion)

1/8-inch stereo output jack for headphone or speaker monitoring (no audio inputs*)

Convenient volume wheel for quick headphone adjustments

Powered by USB (USB 1.1 connection, includes USB extension cable)

Learn tips on how to build your own home recording studio, including advice on microphones, recording software and more in these free video clips. You can now make a recording studio for almost any budget. This video is about different types of microphones for the studio. Remember that there is a chain of events that take place when you record audio. There is the microphone, cables, interface, computer, DAW, etc. Make surethat you have quality gear for each link in the chain. One cheap cable could make a $2000 microphone sound bad. The better the whole chain the better the recording.
