With a variety of I/O formats, dedicated
mic and guitar inputs, and no-latency
mixing and processing of live input, the
10
MicroBook is a complete, portable
"studio in a box" when used with a Mac
or Windows computer.
Precision Digital Trim™
The MicroBook's mic and guitar inputs
are equipped with digitally controlled
analog trims with up to 51 dB and 32 dB
of boost, respectively, using the included
CueMix FX software for Mac OS X and
Windows. This allows you to fine-tune
trim settings for optimum levels.
Different trim configurations can then be
saved as files on disk for instant recall.
16-bit and 24-bit recording
The MicroBook system handles all data
with a 24-bit signal path, regardless of the
I/O format. You can record and play back
16-bit or 24-bit audio files at any
supported sample rate via any of the
MicroBook's inputs and outputs.
CueMix FX mixing and effects
All MicroBook inputs and outputs can be
routed to the on-board CueMix FX
10-bus (5 stereo) digital mixer driven by
hardware-based DSP. The mixer allows
you to apply no-latency EQ and
dynamics processing to inputs, outputs
or busses directly in the MicroBook
hardware, independent of the computer.
Input signals to the computer can be
recorded wet, dry, or dry with a wet
monitor mix (for musicians during
recording, for example).
Effects include parametric EQ and
compression/limiting. Standard
compression provides conventional
threshold, ratio, attack, release, trim, and
