Did you ever actually post this audio. As your client has rejected the re shoot, you should let us have a go with tools way beyond FCP abilities.

I agree with TY.
DSLR’s make pretty pictures, and pretty awful sound. The audio is an reluctant afterthought on most.
1) Horrible 3.5mm jack inputs (makes me lose sleep the thought of a mini jack)
2) Rubbish mic pre amp and input stage electronics
3) Poor noise floor figures
4) “Often” fixed Automatic gain control
5) Insufficient metering to worsen the noise floor issues
6) Poor monitoring output facilities
7) Operators who arent really interested or thinking about the audio until it becomes a problem.7 Good reasons NOT to do it.
Solution. If you want to shoot pictures on a dslr, put your mics through a mixer, feed the dslr with a scratch track for syncing purposes and record real sound on a real sound recorder. Sync in the edit or use pluraleyes if its a big project.For the record, Whilst Im head of Sound in our company, NO ONE will be recording audio on a DSLR until Im shown a camera that had 100% addressed ALL of the issues 1-6.

3.5mm analogue jacks.!
Thats the sort of thing that wakes me up in a cold sweat in the middle of the night.Than cannot possibly be how its best done from a pro device.

HI
I dont really understand what youre asking. An Mbox / mbox mini etc are Pro tools devices, so that narrows that a chunk?
I dont think they can be used with anything else.
