PreSonus<\/strong><\/a> has announced the immediate availability of the AudioBox\u2122 22VSL<\/strong>, AudioBox 44VSL<\/strong>, and AudioBox 1818VSL.<\/strong> All three Presonus AudioBox VSL-Series Interfaces<\/strong> offer the same high-end audio quality you expect from PreSonus<\/strong>, thanks to high-headroom, Class A XMAX\u2122 preamps<\/strong> with 48V phantom power; 24-bit, 96 kHz converters with 114 dB dynamic range; and PreSonus’<\/strong> famously loud (150 mW), clean, clear headphone output. All three models also have MIDI I\/O<\/strong> and zero-latency monitor mixing<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The big news is that these three bargain-priced interfaces deliver reverb and delay effects with dedicated effects buses and the same Fat Channel compression, limiting, 3-band semi-parametric EQ, and high-pass filter found in the new StudioLive 16.0.2 mixer – except that the processing is done on your computer, using bundled PreSonus Virtual StudioLive (VSL)<\/strong> software, with extremely low latency. <\/p>\n\n\n\n As a result, you can monitor while recording with real-time effects. VSL also provides complete editor\/librarian functions, and over 50 professionally programmed Fat Channel processor presets are included for enhancing instruments and vocals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Like all PreSonus interfaces, the new Presonus AudioBox VSL-Series Interfaces<\/strong> units ship with PreSonus Studio One\u2122 Artist DAW (Mac\u00ae\/Windows\u00ae) and support Core Audio and ASIO, so they work with virtually any recording software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The first of these interfaces to hit the market will be the compact, rugged, 2-in, 2-out AudioBox 22VSL<\/strong>. Think of the Presonus AudioBox 22VSL<\/strong> as a 2×2 StudioLive<\/strong> mixer jammed into a third of a rackspace! This mighty mite is bus-powered, offers two combo mic\/instrument inputs and two balanced L\/R main outputs, and is housed in a steel case, so it can easily withstand the rigors of the road. And thanks to the included VSL software, it provides two stereo effects buses with reverb and delay and Fat Channel dynamics processors, EQ, and high pass filter on both inputs and both DAW returns. Presonus AudioBox 22VSL<\/strong> is expected to be available in August 2011 with an anticipated street price of $199.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A great choice for small bands and home recording, the 4-in, 4-out Presonus AudioBox 44VSL<\/strong> offers the same audio quality and basic features as the AudioBox 22VSL<\/strong> and more. Using the included VSL software<\/strong>, Presonus AudioBox 44VSL<\/strong> gives you an 8×4 software mixer with low-latency, Fat Channel processing for each analog input and DAW return, plus two stereo effects buses with reverb and delay. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The \u00bdU rack-mount interface offers two mic\/line inputs, two mic\/instrument inputs, two balanced main L\/R outputs, and four additional balanced line outputs. Presonus AudioBox 44VSL<\/strong> is expected to ship in September 2011 with an anticipated street price of $299.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Presonus AudioBox 1818VSL<\/strong> is poised to become the new king of USB interfaces! This interface has all of the audio features, processing, and effects found in its two smaller siblings, but it goes much further. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It supports 2 mic\/instrument inputs and 6 mic\/line inputs, all with XMAX preamps; 8-channel ADAT I\/O (4 channels at 88.1 or 96 kHz); stereo S\/PDIF I\/O; MIDI I\/O; and word-clock output. Best of all, with the included VSL software, Presonus AudioBox 1818VSL<\/strong> provides a computer-based 26 x 18 (22×14 at 88.1 or 96 kHz), ultra-low latency mixer with two stereo effects buses for the reverb and delay plus the Fat Channel processing from the StudioLive 16.0.2. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Think of it as a rack-mount StudioLive 18.0.2 mixer\u2014in fact, you can use the 1818VSL as an onstage mixer, controlled from your laptop, and can send all those great Fat Channel effects directly into your P.A., while recording.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Presonus AudioBox 1818VSL<\/strong> is expected to ship in September 2011, with an anticipated street price of $499.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Note that these new AudioBox VSL-series<\/strong> interfaces do not replace the current AudioBox USB<\/strong>, which remains an important part of the PreSonus line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For more details and information check the product pages on Presonus Official Site<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nPresonus AudioBox 22VSL <\/strong> Audio Interface <\/strong> Top Features<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
