Digidesign Mbox 2 Pro
Digidesign Mbox 2 Pro is a PreferencePane (system extension) for macOS that provides control panel and configuration options for the Mbox 2 Pro audio interface — a Firewire-based professional audio interface used in recording studios and music production workflows. The Mbox 2 Pro combines microphone preamps, MIDI I/O, headphone outputs and line I/O in a compact interface designed to work with Pro Tools and other DAWs. This PreferencePane allows users to configure audio routing, buffer settings, Firewire performance options and other hardware parameters from macOS System Settings rather than from within Pro Tools itself.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionThe Digidesign Mbox 2 Pro PreferencePane is a system extension that is installed and updated as part of Digidesign's (now Avid's) Pro Tools software package or the Mbox 2 Pro driver suite, not as a standalone product. To update this component to a native Apple Silicon build, you must update the parent driver software or Pro Tools itself using Avid's official installer or Avid Application Manager. Contact Avid support or check avid.com to confirm that a native Apple Silicon build of the Mbox 2 Pro driver suite exists; if it does not yet, this PreferencePane will stop working when Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028). Do not attempt to reinstall this component separately — reinstalling the parent Mbox 2 Pro driver package from Avid will update the PreferencePane automatically.
