How to set up microphone with MBOX MINI 3 and PRO TOOLS 10
Hey guys I'm new to how to setup a home studio. I have a MacBook Pro OS X Lion, Blue Bluebird condenser microphone, Mbox Mini 3rd gen, and Pro Tools 10. I don't know how to set up the mic so I can record vocals. It keeps using the built-in mic in the MacBook Pro to record, and when I try to change the interface my mic does not show up. Please help me with this and I will be very grateful.

Re: How to set up microphone with MBOX MINI 3 and PRO TOOLS 10
Hi Ryuu,
Connect the MBox to the computer and boot the computer. If you have installed the Mbox driver, the 'power' LED should light up. Connect the mic to the XLR input, activate '+48V' Launch PT10. In the 'Setup' menu choose 'Playback Engine'. On the top, choose MBox instead of aggregate i/o. Click OK. (If Mbox doesn't show up, quit PT, reinstall the driver [http://avid.custkb.com/avid/app/self...?DocId=374271] and reboot) In the 'Setup' menu choose 'I/O'. In the input tab, delete all paths, then click 'default'. Same on the output side. Click OK. Create a new mono audio track, set the input to 1, and start recording. Hope this helps. Best, Jan
