Give your classroom FireWire speed and power in this high-def Pro Tools production system.

Digidesign Mbox 2 Pro brings the speed, power, and reliability of FireWire to Digidesign's portable, high-definition, audio/MIDI music production system. The Mbox 2 Pro's high-speed FireWire-powered connectivity delivers more simultaneous audio I/O and connection options with studio-grade 24-bit/96kHz audio resolution as well as low-latency monitoring. Powered the Mbox 2 Pro by FireWire bus (6-pin connection only) or the included power supply. This Educational 2009 version is specially priced to make it easier for educators to bring this amazing music production tool into their classrooms for real-world music education.

The Mbox 2 Pro has four analog inputs—2 combo XLR/TRS jacks, 2 TRS 1/4" jacks—and six 1/4" analog outputs. Two of the inputs are front panel Hi-Z instrument jacks. The XLR inputs have 48V phantom power for use with condenser microphones. It also has S/PDIF digital I/O; an RCA phono preamp input for direct turntable connection; dedicated studio monitor outputs with volume control; 2 stereo headphone outputs with independent volume controls and an alternate source switch; and MIDI I/O. It also offers professional features such as MIDI Time Stamping support, Word Clock I/O, dedicated studio monitor outputs, and the award-winning, easy-to-use Pro Tools LE software. Pro Tools LE offers many of the same features that top studios rely on to compose, record, edit, mix, and master Grammy-winning albums and Academy Award-winning film sound on their Pro Tools systems. It also comes with over many bundled plug-ins and applications, including DigiRack plug-ins, Bomb Factory plug-ins, and the Xpand! sample-playback/synthesis workstation.
