Complete Hardware/Software Recording Kit
AudioBox 96 Studio is a complete recording and production bundle. Get everything you need to start recording guitar (or anything else) in a single purchase!

- M7 condenser microphone
- HD7 headphones
- Studio One Artist
- Studio Magic software suite
The heart of the AudioBox 96 Studio is PreSonus' best-selling AudioBox USB® 96 interface, which captures your recordings in stellar studio quality. Its two front-mounted XLR / ¼" combo jacks let you connect a pair of mics for recording acoustic guitar or electric guitar cabinets. Alternatively, you can simply plug your electric guitars in directly and record direct, using Studio One Artist's Ampire for world-class guitar amp and cab tones - and without your cranked Bassman angering your neighbors. And since there are two inputs, you and a friend can record guitar and bass or vocals and guitar simultaneously to separate tracks to mix later.
The M7 large-diaphragm condenser microphone is the perfect mic for capturing acoustic guitar or vocals. The crystal-clear HD7 headphones will help you avoid any mic feedback issues while recording with open mics, let you closely monitor your performance, as well as mix late into the night without bothering sleeping roommates or neighbors.
Finally, you get over $1000 USD of inspiring professional audio software - including Studio One Artist and the Studio Magic Suite, so your productions will be a step ahead from day one.
We even include all the cables required to hook it all up, so you'll hit the ground running right out of the box and get your creative vision out into the world. With all the hardware and software you need, the AudioBox 96 Studio makes getting started recording and mixing fast and easy.

Capture Every Nuance With The M7 Condenser Microphone.
Get your mic collection off to a good start with the M7 large-diaphragm condenser microphone. Condenser mics are the overwhelming choice of recording studio professionals, enabling you to capture musical details, harmonics, and subtle nuances that would get lost with dynamic mics. Large-diaphragm condenser microphones, like the M7, tend to “warm up” a sound, making them the go-to microphone for recording vocals and a wide range of instruments.
Hear Every Detail With HD7 Professional Headphones.
PreSonus’ high-definition HD7 headphones take advantage of a patented, semi-open sound chamber to deliver exceptionally deep low frequencies with a balanced and yet powerful bass punch. Accurate midrange and extended treble response let you pick out the fine details of a mix or track. The lightweight, ergonomic design adjusts to any head size, offering a comfortable listening experience during long recording sessions.
Apple Silicon, IOS, And IPadOS Compatibility—Standard.
The PreSonus AudioBox 96 Studio is natively compatible with Apple Silicon-based Mac computers*, as well as iOS and iPadOS devices, including iPad Pro, iPad, iPad Air, iPad Mini, iPod Touch, and iPhone. Because it's USB class-compliant, there are no special drivers or applications to download and install. You'll be able to produce on the go—everything from podcasts to folk rock to trap—wherever sound takes you.
