Record Anywhere, with PreSonus Quality!

The PreSonus AudioBox 22VSL USB audio interface gives you a great way to get into 24-bit/96kHz recording in a compact interface. Featuring two acclaimed XMAX mic/instrument preamplifiers with phantom power as well as MIDI I/O, you get everything you need to make great recordings in a no-frills design. Best of all, the AudioBox 22VSL comes with PreSonus Studio One Artist DAW software for instant music-making action. If you don't need a lot of inputs but don't want to compromise on audio quality, the PreSonus AudioBox 22VSL USB audio interface is for you.



PreSonus AudioBox 22VSL USB Audio Interface at a Glance:
  • Exceptional audio quality
  • Virtual StudioLive software for low-latency monitoring with effects
  • PreSonus Studio One Artist DAW included

Exceptional audio quality
From the XMAX microphone preamps to the high-resolution 24-bit/96kHz converters, the PreSonus AudioBox 22VSL's audio quality belies its price. XMAX preamps run on 30V power rails, while most budget preamps run on 10V-18V. The higher voltage gives you more headroom and a richer overall sound. Whether you're plugging in your favorite studio microphone or recording your guitar or bass direct, you'll love the results you get with the AudioBox 22VSL.

Virtual StudioLive software for low-latency monitoring with effects
The included Virtual StudioLive software gives your AudioBox 22VSL the ability to provide reverb and delay effects for your monitor mixes, with near-zero latency. On top of that, the Virtual StudioLive software gives you the same Fat Channel compression, limiting, semi-parametric EQ, and high-pass filter from the acclaimed PreSonus StudioLive 16.0.2 digital mixer. Artists perform better when they're listening to a top-notch headphone mix, and the AudioBox 22VSL makes it easy.

PreSonus Studio One Artist DAW included
The AudioBox 22VSL comes with PreSonus StudioOne Artist DAW software, ready for you to start making music right out of the box. With unlimited recording tracks, an easy-to-use interface, and over 4GB of third-party content to get you started, you'll be amazed at what you can produce with this DAW software - and it's free with your AudioBox 22VSL!

PreSonus AudioBox 22VSL USB Audio Interface Features at a Glance:
  • XMAX preamps sound fantastic, especially at this price point
  • Monitor mix control lets you easily balance and monitor input sources with computer playback
  • USB bus powered and small in size make the AudioBox 22VSL a great mobile recording interface
  • Comes with PreSonus Studio One Artist DAW software for a complete music making experience, right out of the box

The PreSonus AudioBox 22VSL USB Audio Interface gives you a lot of recording potential at a friendly price

The PreSonus AudioBox 22VSL is a sturdy, powerful, efficient, and Ergonomic piece of Gear that's compact and works and works and works!

I would highly recommend anyone to buy this piece of gear and for that matter, any PreSonus Product (including their Award-Winning DAW Studio One).

If you are still not convinced, my final suggestion is call The Library Man at Sweetwater (Carson McClain) and he'll provide the finalizing concepts for you to truly understand the value.

Best small interface

This is a huge upgrade from the original Audiobox. The effects are really great and there is no audible latency.

Aside from that the box seems like its built like a tank. The preamps have plenty of gain and are not noisy in the least bit. A++++++ close [-]

I hate it when people rate products when they don't know what they're doing or find out the product is not for them. Do your research and visit product websites. The interface which is what I'm rating... read more [+] today is small, solid and sounds great for what I use it for. I'm PC savvy but so far no problems in that area, solid as well and super easy to use. Apogee One?? Compare apples to apples. I love this thing and I love S1 Pro but it never hurts to have a second DAW specially when Pro Tools is the standard and the M audio C interfaces are nice. S1 Pro doesn't have a sequencer and that's how I program drums. S1 doesn't allow its transport controls to be linked to a controller so I bought a faderport which works great. Bottom line compare this unit to others with the SAME EXACT FEATURES at this price plus the offers you get if you like their DAW and you'll see its a great buy.

Our Customers Say...

When it came time to start from scratch with the studio, I had a lot of questions. The Sales Engineers I've worked with are really friendly and patient, and the guidance they provided was invaluable; they basically helped build the studio.
