Presonus AudioBox USB 96 25th Anniv Ed 3-stars Reviews

Annoying noise and strange reels

Good product based on the price

but

The noise ( ground loop ) is very annoying ، I don’t know why !!

The rollers are very similar And difficult to deal with

Does not support headphones 250ohm , The sound is too low

Good but flawed

The inputs are too weak (my mildly hot pickups clip the inputs), and the drivers aren't too good. This is a big disappointment, as i have a 44VSL and i love it.

Good interface

This is a good interface, however, mine came with the 48v channel sending out 80v for some reason and I couldn't plug two 48v dependant devices without it starting to make noise.

You should have a powered usb hub for this interface just to be sure it receives all the juice it needs to function properly.

The audio quality is good, preamps are fairly quiet and it is really really well build.

if it wasn't for the fact that it came broken in the first place, I'd easily give it 4+ stars, however, seeing it as a recurrent problem online, I'm afraid I cannot.

The drivers sometimes bug and I'm left with no sound and have turn the interface on and off.

If you're planing to use this with a guitar, you should have a DI Box because with RG421's quantum pickups, on the lowest gain possible, it still clips slightly.

Overall, it's a worth considering interface, with great build and sound quality. However, i'd recommend you checking out a newer presonus one or a Focusrite interface if the price difference doesnt bother you. Look for one with a pad button if you plan to use a guitar.

Slightly disapointed

The device itself is great but the Studio One (artist version) that comes with it is not the best. Firstly it doesn`t allow latency to be set no lower than 10mS, moreover it doesn`t allow .mp3 input tracks or recordings to be extracted as such. For the money, no i don`t find this acceptable. The quality of the recordings itself is very clean and transparent and some features are handy but the aformentioned latency issues kill all the fun for me trying to record my bass.
