M-Audio MobilePre
2x2 16-Bit USB-Powered Analog Interface/Preamp 
no, No, NO!
I don't want a 16 channel mixer with 6 aux busses, inserts, and on-board effects. I don't want a fancy 10 in / 10 out audio interface with SMPTE. And I don't need a digital this & digital that. And what's a MIDI?
ALL I WANT IS TO PLUG MY MICS INTO MY LAPTOP AND RECORD! H E L P!!!
And so, M-Audio made the MobilePre USB, one of the few totally bus-powered preamps available, (no batteries or A/C Adapter required) allowing you to record and play music anywhere, on your laptop!
The Basics...The MobilePre USB is a 2-In/2-Out Audio Interface, providing two
Microphone/Instrument preamps and high-impedance instrument inputs for use with guitars and basses. An Input Gain Control Knob is provided for each channel in order to maximize signal strength.
Inputs And Outputs...A pair of balanced XLR inputs include a Phantom Power switch for accommodating condenser mics. Surprisingly cool is the inclusion of an 1/8"
Stereo Mini-pin Mic Input, which is perfect for battery powered stereo condenser mics that tend to be used for a number of field recording
applications. A pair of 1/4" inputs make the MobilePre USB versatile for both Mic and Line Level recording situations.
A pair of 1/4" unbalanced outputs, along with an 1/8" stereo mini-pin output make connection to any audio sound system nice & easy. In addition, there's an 1/8" mini-pin stereo Headphone Output with a dedicated volume control.
In Summary...The MobilePre USB gives you what you need to record audio on your laptop with professional quality mic preamps, and do it at an all-time low price
point!
