General Overview

The AudioBox GO by PreSonus is a worthy addition to the AudioBox line of interfaces, except it’s even smaller while still packing in important features. Designed specifically for laptop-based studios and mobile setups with limited desk space, this bite-size interface lets you connect professional microphones, guitars, synthesizers, headphones, and studio monitors. It’s tiny enough to take with you so you can record pretty much wherever and whenever you want to. This includes setting up your own home recording studio.

The layout is pretty straightforward. On the front, there’s a mix control for hardware/software monitor blend, +48V phantom power for condenser microphones, and a headphone jack. On the back, you’ll find connections for the balanced stereo main outputs (for your professional studio monitors), as well as the microphone, line, and instrument inputs.

AudioBox GO is meant to get you out of the indoors and into the outdoors. Make the world your studio and create endless masterpieces — recording anything, anywhere. As with most PreSonus products, the AudioBox GO comes with Studio One Prime DAW as well as Studio Magic — a value bundle worth well over $1000 when including the plug-ins, software, and tutorials.

Wrapping Up

For creators seeking an easy-to-use recording setup at home or on the go, the PreSonus AudioBox Go is a solid and affordable solution. The durable and compact, black steel chassis design helps to save space on your desk or in your backpack. It features Class-A mic preamps with phantom power and is conveniently bus-powered, eliminating the need for external power.
