Hi Ya'll,
I can't get my Mbox to record or play hot enough with turning up all the way. Any suggestions? iBook system. Also, how does one make cclick tracks play in PT LE with MBox and iBook. Thanks for the input. Steelemike |

I don't know - I wouldn't have thought it would make too much difference whether recording digitally or to tape. If you've got a hot signal, it should stay pretty hot on its way through your interface.
With the USB power thing, basically some companies make USB products with a power supply and make a fuss of USB bus-power not being enough. Other companies (like Digi with the Mbox) make USB-powered devices and don't really mention potential drawbacks, for obvious reasons. The Mbox might well be happier in a USB port of its own, but if the hub is powered (like Griffin's new 4-Port Audio Hub) I don't see why it would matter. I've got one of these Griffins and none of my equipment seems to mind sharing! Personally, I favour a steady AC power supply plugged into my audio interfaces, particularly if I'm going to be using condenser mics etc. You can't do that with the Mbox, I don't think. |
