Presonus AudioBox 1818VSL USB 2.0 Audio Interface

The Presonus AudioBox 1818VSL USB Audio Interface is without question, the finest professional USB audio/MIDI interface on the market! The 1818VSL can record 18 tracks simultaneously and offers near-zero-latency dynamics processing, parametric EQ, reverb, and delay effects.

Recording bands and project-studio owners will love the revolutionary 18 channel, rackmount AudioBox 1818VSL because it has the power of an 18 x 18 StudioLive digital mixer, including signal processing with near-zero latency and the same high-end pro audio quality, including high-headroom XMAX Class A preamps. Plus a complete StudioLive 16.0.2 Fat Channel for compression, limiting, downward expansion, parametric EQ, high-pass filter, delay, and reverb on all inputs and playback streams. These effects are so good that you can print them to disk or route them through your P.A. onstage! The Presonus 1818VSL sports 2 mic/instrument inputs and 6 mic/line inputs with high-headroom XMAX preamps, 8 channel ADAT I/O, 2 effects buses, and more. It comes with PreSonus' Studio One Artist DAW (Mac/Windows) and is compatible with virtually any recording software.
