Default mbox vs 002r

Default Re: mbox vs 002r

Here are a few reasons to go with the 002r over the Mbox:

More I/O
Higher-quality Audio
MIDI I/O
Monitor Section

I would think that the increased I/O alone would be a good reason, but i guess that isn't always the case.

The only real problem i cans ee with a 002 is the power harness issue, but that's very quickly and easily resolved.

The firewire 002R doesn't suffer from the latency of the USB M-Box, either.
Nice pres in the M-Box, great tool for a voice-over artist, maybe.
For performance and versatility, I like the 002R.

Low Latency mode is real handy (Mbox does not have it)
