The audio interface features two channels, represented by microphone and instrument inputs on two Combo Jack/XLR connectors. Phantom power +48V is available for the microphone inputs, required by most condenser microphones, and the quality preamps ensure minimal noise levels during recording. The instrument inputs are designed for high-impedance signals, such as electric guitars. Recording is done in 24-bit format with a sampling frequency of up to 96 kHz. The channel volume controls are located next to the inputs and have an overload indicator. There is also a Mix knob for direct monitoring of the input signal without latency or for listening to the signal coming from the computer. The front panel also features volume controls for monitors and headphones. For connection to an acoustic system, there is a balanced output on two 1/4'' Jack TRS connectors. The headphone output is also on a 1/4'' Jack TRS connector. An MIDI interface with input and output on traditional 5-pin connectors is available for connecting external devices such as synthesizers, controllers, drum machines, and more. Connection to the computer and device power is done through a USB-B port.
The PreSonus AudioBox USB 96 is one of the best budget audio interfaces, standing out from others with its low latency, incredibly durable housing, built-in high-quality converters and preamps typically found in more expensive sound cards. This model is ideal for home studios and mobile recording, allowing for both recording and mixing music. Included with the interface are a USB cable, license keys for the PreSonus Studio One Artist software for audio work, and for the Studio Magic bundle, which includes essential plugins in VST, AAX, and AU formats.
