    The MBox pro should be OK as long as you have ASIO drivers for it. Set the MBox as the interface in GR7 with the input set to one of the inputs that has a Hi-Z input for the guitar. Set the output as the MBox outputs and you should be good to go.

    You won't be able to use the USB Pro for output as ASIO only supports one device at a time unless you use a workaround like ASIO4ALL which will give you higher latency.

    I have never used GR7 except in Pro Tools.

    I have an interface for the laptop to send to the PA. For that I use Radial Engineering USB Pro USB to audioDI box 24 bit stereo converter

    I also have an Mbox pro I used to use for my Mac

    I use Mac for all my recording, however the laptop I intend to use is a Windows machine.

    Are they usable for playing guitar through the laptop using GR7?

    Thanks, Thomas
