I am in the same boat as you. I updated to El Capitan and my Mbox USB interface is no longer recognized.

If you scan the forums you will find that other MIDI interfaces appear to have stopped working as well, it is not just the Avid MBOX 2. This points to the issue being on Apple's side, but I can't say for sure..

I am hoping for a fix from Apple in the next point release as I am mid-project as well...

In the meantime I would recommend submitting a bug report to Apple. Hopefully the more of these they get the more likely we will see a fix..
