If you have a custom file path, you must select what folders you want the program files to save in. If you stick to the default file path, click &#8216;Next&#8217; until &#8216;Finish&#8217; makes an appearance! And wallah, the software sets itself up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With a frequency response of 20Hz-20KHz, plus or minus 0.1dB, you will hear a beautiful reproduction of your recording. That&#8217;s not even mentioning the THD+N of less than 0.0012%, you&#8217;re not going to hear anything other than what you output through the interface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For such a snazzy device, its build is very sturdy and portable!. Coming in hard with a durable exterior that&#8217;s complete with two 24-bit\/192kHz preamps, this has to be my favorite interface. With pleasant indicators of signal levels on the knobs themselves, it&#8217;s easy to tell when your gain is too loud!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Included Software<\/span>: <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><br><\/span><\/strong><br>Avid Pro Tools (100&#8217;s of virtual instruments)<br><br>Ableton Live Lite (DAW with limited channels)<br><br>XLN Audio Addictive Keys Softube Time and Tone Bundle (one of four virtual instruments)<br><br>Focusrite Red Plug-in Suite (EQ &amp; Compressor)<br><br>Focusrite Plugin Collective (free plugins and discounts on paid versions)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presonus.com\/products\/AudioBox-USB-96\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>PreSonus USB 96<\/strong><\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mixxed.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/presonus-audiobox-usb-96-25th-anniversary-edition-1-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-898 lazyload\" width=\"354\" height=\"354\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/create.routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/presonus-audiobox-usb-96-25th-anniversary-edition-1-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/create.routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/presonus-audiobox-usb-96-25th-anniversary-edition-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/create.routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/presonus-audiobox-usb-96-25th-anniversary-edition-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/create.routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/presonus-audiobox-usb-96-25th-anniversary-edition-1-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/create.routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/presonus-audiobox-usb-96-25th-anniversary-edition-1-80x80.jpg 80w, https:\/\/create.routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/presonus-audiobox-usb-96-25th-anniversary-edition-1-160x160.jpg 160w, https:\/\/create.routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/presonus-audiobox-usb-96-25th-anniversary-edition-1-240x240.jpg 240w, https:\/\/create.routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/presonus-audiobox-usb-96-25th-anniversary-edition-1-320x320.jpg 320w, https:\/\/create.routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/presonus-audiobox-usb-96-25th-anniversary-edition-1-480x480.jpg 480w, https:\/\/create.routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/presonus-audiobox-usb-96-25th-anniversary-edition-1-640x640.jpg 640w, https:\/\/create.routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/presonus-audiobox-usb-96-25th-anniversary-edition-1-720x720.jpg 720w, https:\/\/create.routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/presonus-audiobox-usb-96-25th-anniversary-edition-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto\" \/><figcaption>Credit: Dawsons Music<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Running up with a close third place, the PreSonus Audiobox USB 96 features two inputs with 1\/4&#8243; TRS and XLR input options, both with two superb preamps.
