Any suggestions?

Okay, so I got a Digidesign Factory Mbox 2 package (with pro tools 8 le) and I am wondering if there is any way to run a separate mixer through this interface. I know how picky Digidesign is with compatibility, but when trying to record drums, 2 channels isn't quite cutting it. Any suggestions how to get around this?

i have an mbox 2 and i am trying to record vocals using a Shure sm57 mic but in order to get good enough levels i have to crank the input as close as i can to max on the mbox and even then i have to be super careful cause if i go any higher i get poor quality audio.

I've recently had the opportunity to purchase both an Mbox 2 Pro and an Apogee Duet and Logic Studio. I wasn't sure what to use, so I bought both because they were good deals, and I plan to sell what I don't use. Everything should be arriving at the end of this month.

so, my original mbox is broken. I want to get something to replace it, but I do not want to spend the money on the usb cable and the Pro Tools... just the mbox itself. Where can I get this? OR. is there anything else I can use with Pro Tools that is cheaper then an mbox? I'm not really gonna be a stickler about quality here, Im a newb

is the mbox the only type of interface i can use with Pro Tools LE? thank you.

Alright, I'm set on getting the Mbox Mini, and I just want some insight on what else i should get. It comes with decent monitors, and a condenser mic, I just want some help or some input on what else i should get.

I'm going to have about 400 dollars left after i get the mbox, so... my question is... what else should i buy to make this into an efficient and quality home studio?

Hi,

I am new.

I have been using the MBox mini for a few months now and love it and love Pro Tools so I decided to expand my gear.

Can I use the Mbox 2 inserts for outboard gear while I am mixing? I want to use a Apex Exciter on a mix I have in Pro Tools already. There are inserts on the back, but I don't know if they work in conjuction with Pro Tools LE.

I am running an Mbox 2 into an iMac G4, and whenever I plug my keyboard directly into the DI input on the back, it makes a high pitch noise that is very annoying and impossible to get rid of with EQ without slaughtering the sound! Somebody please help! Oh yeah, I'm using a 1/4" unbalanced instrument cable...
