Digidesign Avid Mbox 3 Pro with Pro Tools 10 Software

Degidesign Pro Tools Mbox Pro

 is a complete, integrated, computer-based music creation and production system. The Mbox Pro hardware interface features a premium analog signal path and high-performance converters for exceptional sound. Also, the Mbox Pro offers third-party drivers for rock-solid integration with nearly every popular audio recording application.

Avid Pro Tools 10 DAW software enables you to mix multiple audio file formats and bit depths within the same session - including interleaved - without any file duplication to cause project bloat. Plus, with support for 32-bit floating-point file formats, you'll get higher resolution sound when recording or importing, with more headroom to preserve the integrity of your audio from beginning to end.

Avid Pro Tools 10 is designed with the professional in mind, providing powerful yet easy-touse tools and streamlined workflows that boost your efficiency. Gain better recording and playback performance when working on a laptop, with an external hard drive, or network-attached storage device. Speed up editing and mixing with Smart Tools, Clip Gain, and new AudioSuite workflows. And handle the biggest plug-in heavy mixes with 16k of ADC (Automatic Delay Compensation).

PLEASE NOTE: This package includes Pro Tools 9 software, and you can receive a free upgrade to Pro Tools 10

Premium Quality
The Mbox Pro interface features advanced recording technology for exceptional quality. A premium analog signal path and high-performance 24-bit, 192kHz* converters deliver pristine sound. Stringent testing standards ensure rock-solid performance in the most demanding environments. And Mbox Pro is designed for ultra-tight integration with the included Pro Tools 9 software, which is the same platform trusted by professional musicians, engineers and producers worldwide.

Unsurpassed Flexibility
The Mbox Pro interface is also compatible with other major recording applications, so you can make music any way you want. All-new drivers provide superior performance with Logic, Live, Record, Reason, Fruity Loops, Cubase, Nuendo, Sonar and more. So go ahead, use your favorite third-party DAW from start to finish—or record with the included Pro Tools 9 software to ensure your sessions are compatible with pro studios around the world. No matter how you work, you'll sound great with Mbox Pro.

Advanced Functionality
The Mbox Pro interface is packed with tons of advanced features that make it easy to get great results. Mbox Pro provides the professional-grade soft-clip limiter circuit, so you can track much hotter signals without overloading the inputs and clipping.

Built-in reverb helps you deliver more inspiring vocal and instrumental performances - without taxing your computer processor. The integrated guitar tuner enables you to tune your guitar, bass, and other instruments directly from the interface. And a Pro Tools multi-function button makes it easy to access common software parameters - like tap session tempo, start/stop record, and create a new track-right from the front of the interface. With Mbox Pro, your sessions will move at the speed of your creativity.

Up to 96 kHz sample rates supported with Pro Tools 9 software.
