Premium Performance, Desktop-friendly Interface!

The PreSonus AudioBox 44VSL USB audio interface gives you a great way to get into 24-bit/96kHz recording in a compact interface. Featuring four acclaimed XMAX microphone 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 44VSL comes with PreSonus Studio One Artist DAW software for instant music-making action. If you want compact recording convenience but don't want to compromise on audio quality, the PreSonus AudioBox 44VSL USB audio interface is for you.



PreSonus AudioBox 44VSL 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 44VSL'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 44VSL.

Virtual StudioLive software for low-latency monitoring with effects
The included Virtual StudioLive software gives your AudioBox 44VSL 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 highpass 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 44VSL makes it easy.

PreSonus Studio One Artist DAW included
The AudioBox 44VSL 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 44VSL!

PreSonus AudioBox 44VSL 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
  • Multiple input options plus small size make the AudioBox 44VSL 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 44VSL USB Audio Interface gives you a lot of recording potential at a friendly price

I am very happy with the product and service I received. I have yet to experience such personalized service from audio/music companies in my hometown. I will certainly make more purchases from Sweetwater again. If you have the product I need, I will purchase it from Sweetwater. The service is exceptional. I have never been treated with such thorough, knowledgeable, and friendly service from any of the music companies located in Saint Louis, MO.

Needless to say, it was time for a change, and PreSonus had the solution I needed. It is very easy to learn the included studio one software and I had a fully operational studio in less than a day.

I was able to hook-up the VSL and install the programs without difficulty.

There is plenty of support material available to walk you through the steps of your first recordings.

Best $300 interface on the market!

After having dealt with s series of lackluster audio interfaces such as the M-Audio Fast Track,NI Audio Kontrol 1 and the utterly disappointing Yamaha MOX interface,I was in dire need of an upgrade in... read more [+] quality and I needed more than 2 inputs anyhow.
This is my first significant upgrade & my first piece of Presonus hardware and I must say,I am shocked at the sheer build quality,sonic fidelity and the versatility of this magnificent interface!
The preamps certainly live up to Preonus's reputation,as recording vocals clean, is a rare pleasure,since a smattering of reverb is all that's needed..to make your vocals stand out in a mix.
There are no restrictions with this unit in terms of monitoring,as regardless of the situation in my DAW,my external audio source is never cut off.
This unit works seamlessly with your PC,yet it also works independently as a stand alone mixer...as I can listen to my Kurzweil PC3LE6 without my computer powered up,which is a new concept to me.
For some reason,the bright blue face & the light gray appearance as it's portrayed online,makes this box seem like cheap plastic...but it's nothing of the sort.
It's actually metal throughout and has a beautiful brushed navy blue face on it!
The front controls are very smooth & precise and are hermetically sealed,which is quite impressive for the coin!
Based on everything I've researched and have previously owned,the 44VSL offers the most pristine features & value...which is unbeatable and unbelievable! close [-]

Couldn't ask for anything better

by Allan Wolfe from Houston, TX

I'm truly blown away with this integrated system.

Pro:
* Very quiet.
* Preamps are warm without being balmy.
* Software integration (VSL) works as advertised. ... read more [+]Having the ability to record dry but send effects back to the monitor/headphones is really good.
* Studio One V2 integration works well. Still learning the software, but really like the quality of the software, plugability (VST, AU and Rewire). The Melodyne is a real sweetner that sets this apart from others.
* Well worth the price for the the excellent quality of both hardware and software.

Cons:
* Software packaging and licensing was really confusing. I got an Studio One V1 media with a V2 license key. Nothing described the license as being V2. Had to download all the GB of software. The downloading took forever. Seemingly with V2, no help reference guide in the installation. I resorted to buying groove3.com video for learning S1v2.
* No carrying/protective bag or case. Really needs it since it is a portable solution.

Knowing now what I know, would I have bought something else? No. Other than the irritant with software installation and documentation, I'd buy this solution all over again. This is truly a well integrated solution that is flexible in of itself or to integrate into other DAW software soltuions. close [-]
