IK Multimedia MixBox CS is a virtual channel strip plug-in for iPad

IK Multimedia have announced MixBox CS.

MixBox CS is the iPad version of their successful “500 series-style” virtual rack plug-in for Mac and PC.

This customizable channel strip offers musicians, producers, engineers, or anyone who loves creating new sounds, all the effects they need in one “rack” to mix faster and more efficiently anywhere.

It includes 70 studio processors and creative effects derived from IK’s T-RackS mixing and mastering workstation, AmpliTube guitar and bass tone studio, and SampleTank sound and groove workstation, as well as four new stunning reverb algorithms. It packs these processors into a convenient and intuitive channel strip layout.

Works with GarageBand, Cubasis and more…

Supporting AUv3 plug-ins, MixBox CS works seamlessly with popular AU Hosts, including GarageBand, Cubasis and many more, massively expanding any user’s built-in effects options and mixing tools.

Users of the desktop version of MixBox will be right at home and able to transfer production work between the two.

Beginners will benefit from having high-quality effects and 600+ presets at their fingertips to kick-start their creativity, while advanced users can speed up their workflow by using the customizable format to save and recall whole custom effects chains instantly.

Audio can be fed into an iPad from any source such as a digital mixer or audio interface, and the MixBox CS main panel will offer control over all eight racks at once. Users can load rack presets, add or remove processors from each rack, activate the side-chain and manage input/output channels and gain for each rack, all from one panel.

It’s available on the App Store for an introductory price of $39.99 (regular price will be $59.99).

Users who register their MixBox CS with IK Multimedia will receive an additional collection of Signature presets.
