FireWire connectivity makes for an adaptable, portable solution - perfect for your laptop or desktop - while offering high data-transfer speeds and plug-and-play capability. Check out the Digidesign 003 Rack and see why Pro Tools continues to be the industry standard.
With the Digidesign 003, the latest generation of Pro Tools LE interfaces has arrived! Building on the success of the hugely successful 002, the 003 takes all the built-in functionality of its predecessor and ups the ante with redesigned preamps and superior A/D conversion. The 003 preamps are the latest generation mic pre for Pro Tools LE interfaces, and use discrete, bi-polar, low-noise transistors coupled with a cleaner signal flow and improved pots. The 003 is also equipped with word clock I/O making it super-easy to sync Pro Tools LE with external digital devices. Also new to the 003 Rack is a pair of control room outputs in addition to the dedicated monitor outputs. The 003 revolutionized the home studio, and the 003 continues that with additional "wow"-factor features.
