General

Make a studio mix any time, any place with this VRM box. It's built to last, and features VRM (Virtual Reference Monitoring) technology in a pocket-sized model. VRM technology eliminates the biggest stumbling block in headphone mixes by creating multiple perspectives, so it sounds just like you're listening to speakers!

VRM Box: whenever, wherever

Background noise is a common problem in most project studios, and often makes it impossible to edit your mixes precisely using speakers. Not to mention that the neighbours probably aren't big fans of late-night sessions. Thanks to VRM though, you can mix any time, day or night. Just use any set of studio headphones and choose your mixing environment! Whether you're working in a living room, a small project studio or a professional studio, all you have to do is choose your environment from the list and then pick from the available speakers.

You might be wondering if the VRM box is an effects processor or an audio interface. The answer to your quandary would actually be both!

The VRM audio Box offers you the kind of audio quality your headphones deserve. Enjoy a dynamic range of 108 dB, together with a more precise sound. And that's all with minimal distortion that's practically unheard of in this price class. The VRM box also functions as a high-quality 24-bit / 48 kHz audio playback interface. So whether you want to produce music or just listen to it, the VRM Box is perfect!
