This digital stage box provides eight combo inputs that accept both XLR and 1/4″ connections, allowing you to connect microphones and line-level instruments without needing additional adapters or interfaces. Each input is equipped with a high-quality mic preamp and offers phantom power, ensuring compatibility with condenser microphones and delivering clean, transparent sound. This means you can confidently connect a wide range of sources—from vocals to guitars to keyboards—and trust that the audio signal will remain true to your performance without unwanted noise or coloration.

On the output side, the NSB 8.8 features eight balanced XLR outputs, giving you ample routing options for stage monitors, outboard gear, or main PA systems. The balanced design minimizes interference and hum, which is especially important in complex live environments where cable runs can be long and electrical noise can degrade audio clarity. By integrating with PreSonus’s UC Surface control software, this stage box allows you to remotely manage input gains, phantom power, and other settings from your Mac, Windows PC, iPad, or even Android devices. This flexibility means you can make quick adjustments without needing to physically access the stage box, saving time and reducing disruptions during rehearsals or performances.

Measuring just 16.7 inches wide, 5.2 inches high, and 4.5 inches deep, and weighing only 5.4 pounds, it’s easy to transport and fits comfortably in typical stage setups or racks. The locking IEC power connector ensures a secure connection to AC power, reducing the risk of accidental disconnections during critical moments on stage. Dual EtherCon AVB network ports provide robust and reliable data transfer, enabling flawless digital audio transmission with minimal latency—a vital feature for live sound professionals who require tight synchronization between their stage inputs and mixing console.

This stage box is ideal for live bands, theater productions, houses of worship, and recording studios that use PreSonus StudioLive Series III mixers.
