2. Controls and Connections
2.1 Front-Panel Controls and Connections
Gain Controls
These knobs provide 50 dB of variable gain (0 to
+50 dB for microphones, -15 to 35 dB for line/in-
strument).
Clip indicator. The small red to the right of the
Gain Controls will illuminate when your input signal
reaches -0.5 dBFS. At this level, the signal will
begin to overload the analog-to-digital converters
and exhibit signs of clipping. Use the gain controls
to keep the signal below this level.
48 Volt Phantom Power
The AudioBox GO provides 48V phantom power for the microphone inputs. Pressing the 48V
button switches phantom power on and off for all microphone inputs; the button will illuminate
in blue when phantom power is available on the microphone preamplifiers.
Power indicator
This light indicates if your AudioBox GO is powered on.
2. Controls and Connections 5
Main Volume
The Main knob controls the output level for the main left/right outputs on the back of
your AudioBox GO and has a range of -80 dB to 0 dB. This control provides atten-
uation only.
Headphone Output
The headphone output plays back the same sound as the Main left/right outputs.
Headphone Level
This knob controls the level of the headphone output.
Mixer
The Mixer knob allows you to blend your input signals with the playback streams from
your computer so that you can monitor your input signals without any latency (delay).
If the knob is positioned at 12 o’clock, the input signal and the playback stream will be
equally balanced. Turning the knob to the left will increase the level of the input signal
relative to the playback stream; turning to the right will increase the level of the play-
back stream relative to the input signal as illustrated below:
2.1 Front-Panel Controls and Connections 6
2.2 Back Panel Connections
Mic/Line combo Input
Your AudioBox GO interface is equipped with a combo jack that
works with both XLRmicrophones and Line-level sources. This con-
venient connector accepts either a ¼-inch or an XLR connector.
Microphones:The AudioBox Go combo jack is equipped with a
high-quality XMAX-L solid-state microphone preamp, optimized for
bus power. It's suitable for use with all types of microphones. You
may need to engage the +48v power switch for use with condenser
microphones.
Please note: As with any audio input device, plugging in a microphone or an instrument, or turning
phantom power on or off, will create a momentary spike in the audio output. Because of this, we highly
recommend that you turn down the channel trim before changing connections or turning phantom power
on or off. This simple step will add years to life of your audio equipment.
Line-level sources:The combo jack also supports the use of line-level devices like synthesizers, signal
processors, drum machines, etc.
Instrument Input
The ¼-inch connectors of Channel 2 can be used with passive instruments: guitar,
bass, etc.
2.2 Back Panel Connections 7
Main Outs
These are the Main outputs for the AudioBox GO. The output level of
the Main outputs is controlled by the Main level control on the front of
the unit. Playback streams 1 and 2 are routed to these outputs.
USB-C Port
Use this port to connect your AudioBox GO to your computer. While the Audi-
oBox GO connects using USB-C, it is fully compatible with USB 2.0 and 3.0
connections. Use the USB-C to A cable that came with your AudioBox GO if
your computer has a USB-A connection rather than a USB-C connection.
Please note: The AudioBox GO is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 speed connections.
USB 1.1 is not supported.

3. Connecting to a Computer 10
Sample Rate. Changes the sample rate
You can set the sample rate to 44.1, 48, 88.2, or 96
kHz. A higher sample rate will increase the fidelity
of the recording but will increase the file size and
the amount of system resources necessary to pro-
cess the audio.
Block Size. Sets the buffer size.
From this menu, you can set the buffer size. Lower-
ing the buffer size will lower latency; however, this
will also increase performance demands on your
computer. In general, you will want to set the buffer
size as low as your system can safely support. If
you begin to hear pops, clicks, or distortion in your
audio path, try raising the buffer size.
3.3 Firmware update
After you've installed Universal Control and con-
nected your AudioBox GO, you may be prompted
to update The AudioBox GO firmware. Updating
your firmware is a quick process, just click on the
green "Update Firmware" button and Universal
Control will do the rest.

In the Options window, click on the Audio Setup tab and select your device driver from the pull-down.
4.4 Configuring MIDI Devices
From the External Devices window in Studio One Prime, you can configure your MIDI keyboard con-
troller, sound modules, and control surfaces. This section will guide you through setting up your MIDI key-
board controller and sound modules. Please consult the Reference Manual located within Studio One for
complete setup instructions for other MIDI devices.
If you are using a third-party MIDI interface or USB MIDI-controller keyboard, you must install any
required drivers for these devices before beginning this section. Please consult the documentation that
came with your MIDI hardware for complete installation instructions.
4.4 Configuring MIDI Devices 17
If you do not have any MIDI devices, please skip to Section 4.3.
Setting up an External MIDI Keyboard Controller from the Start Page
A MIDI keyboard controller is a hardware device that is generally used for playing and controlling other
MIDI devices, virtual instruments, and software parameters. In Studio One Prime, these devices are
referred to as Keyboards, and they must be configured before they are available for use. In some cases,
your MIDI keyboard controller is also used as a tone generator. Studio One Prime views the controller
and tone-generation functions as two different devices: a MIDI keyboard controller and a sound module.
The MIDI controls (keyboard, knobs, faders, etc.) will be set up as a Keyboard. The sound modules will
be set up as an Instrument.
You can set up your external MIDI devices from the Setup area in the Start page. Before setting up a new
Song for recording, take a moment to configure external devices.
Make sure you have connected the MIDI Out of your external MIDI controller to a MIDI In on your PreSo-
nus audio interface (if available) or other MIDI interface. If you are using a USB MIDI controller, connect it
to your computer and power it on.
Click on the Configure External Devices link in the Setup area on the Start page to launch the External
Devices window.
Click the Add button. This will launch the Add Device window.
4.4 Configuring MIDI Devices 18
From the menu on the left, select your MIDI controller from the list of manufacturers and models. If you do
not see your MIDI controller listed, select New Keyboard. At this point, you can customize the name of
your keyboard by entering the manufacturer and device names.
l
You must specify which MIDI channels will be used to communicate with this keyboard. For most pur-
poses, you should select all MIDI channels. If you are unsure of which MIDI channels to choose,
select all 16.
l
Studio One allows you to filter out specific control functions. If you would like Studio One to ignore
Aftertouch, Pitch Bend, Program Change, or all CC messages, enable filtering for any or all of these
messages.
l
In the Receive From drop-down menu, select the MIDI interface input from which Studio One Prime
will receive MIDI data (that is, the MIDI port to which your keyboard is connected).
l
If this is the only keyboard that you will use to control your external synthesizers and virtual instru-
ments, you should check the box next to Default Instrument Input. This will automatically assign your
keyboard to control all MIDI devices in Studio One Prime.
l
Click “OK.” You're all set up!
Power User Tip: In the Send To drop-down menu, select the MIDI interface output from which your Stu-
dio One will send MIDI data to your keyboard. If your keyboard controller doesn’t need to receive MIDI
data from Studio One, you can leave this unselected.
If you have a sound module that you’d like to connect, leave the External Devices window open and pro-
ceed to the next part of this section. If not, you can close the window and skip to the next section.
4.4 Configuring MIDI Devices 19
Setting up an External MIDI Sound Module from the Start Page
MIDI instrument controllers (keyboards, MIDI guitars, etc.) send musical information, in the form of MIDI
data, to tone modules and virtual instruments, which respond by generating sound as instructed. Tone
modules can be standalone sound devices or can be integrated into a MIDI instrument, such as a key-
board synthesizer. Studio One Prime refers to all tone generators as Instruments. Once you have set up
your MIDI keyboard controller, take a moment to configure your sound module.
Make sure you have connected the MIDI In of your external sound module to the MIDIOut of your MIDI
interface.
In the External Devices window, click the Add button.
4.4 Configuring MIDI Devices 20
Select your device in the menu on the left. If your device is not listed, select New Instrument. At this point
you can customize the name of your keyboard by entering the manufacturer and device names.
l
Specify which MIDI channels will be used to communicate with this sound module. For most pur-
poses, you should select all MIDI channels. If you are unsure of which MIDI channels to select, we
suggest you select all 16.
l
In the Send To menu, select the MIDI interface output from which Studio One Prime will send MIDI
data to your sound module. Click “OK” and close the External Devices window. You are now ready to
start recording in Studio One Prime.
The rest of this Quick Start Guide will go over how to set up a Song and will discuss some general work-
flow tips for navigating through the Studio One Prime environment.
4.5 Creating a New Song
Now that you’ve configured your audio and MIDI devices, let’s create a new Song. We’ll start by setting
up your default audio I/O.
From the Start page, select “Create a New Song.”
4.5 Creating a New Song 21
In the New Song window, name your Song and choose the directory in which you’d like it saved. You’ll
notice a list of templates on the left. These templates provide quick setups for a variety of devices and
recording situations. The section will describe creating a Song from an empty session.
Power User Tip: If you plan to import loops into your Song, make sure that the Stretch Audio Files to
Song Tempo option is selected. This will automatically import loops at the correct tempo.
