Mbox2 Mini vs Mbox 1
I'm asking for a friend. He has a powerbook 1.67ghz machine with 512 of ram. He's got a defective DIMM slot that Apple is going to fix under warranty, then he'll upgrade to 1gig or maybe 1.5 gigs. Anyway, the dilemma for him is should he buy an Mbox 2 Mini or a possibly used Mbox 1? I read where his specific model of powerbook has an issue w/ the phantom power of the Mbox 2 mini not working. But that really won't be an issue for him cuz he doesn't do any field recording.
I guess my question is, which I wasn't able to clearly find on here, is if the Mbox2 Mini is much more preferred than the Mbox 1? Or is the Mbox 1 something they got right and screwed things up w/ the Mbox 2?
Thanks for the help!
Happy Holidays!
