Hello yall,

For a long time I've been thinking about getting this one
http://www.guitarcenter.com/Digidesign-Mbox-2-USB-Audio-MIDI-Pro-Tools-LE-Interface-103398913-i1125902.gc

The Mbox 2. I heard a lot of + things about it and how good the sound quality is and stuff.

Ok I'm Starting My Home Studio
I Know The Basics cuz I'm Better In Live Sound Not Recording.
This What I Have And How Its Connected

Mics, Keyboards, Amps, etc. --> Yamaha MG10/2 (Record Out) --> Computer (Line In)

Would A Interface Be Worth Buying?

If So How Would I Use It?

I've been recording spoken word tracks with mixed but steadily improving results.

Thus far I've been using a Boss digital studio and been fairly happy with it but I think I want to switch to a usb interface.

Probably a rackmount as I'll be migrating all my gear to a set of flightcases over the next year.

So I recently purchased a PreSonus Firebox with the Cubase LE 4 that comes with it.

But when I go into the device setup in Cubase, it asks for an output...

I thought the output was the firewire connection from the computer to the audio interface...

Whenever I try to record, no sound comes through...

Is there something I'm missing here?

I'm not a recording pro but I'm heading off to music school in a couple months and I need a computer audio interface. I have a new macbook and I'm running Logic Express on it. My computer has no firewire ports so I need an interface that uses usb. I have a couple in mind but I want to here what more experienced individuals have to say. Thanks a lot.

Okay, so I have 5 down to choose from:

1. Tascam US 122L USB 2.0 w/ Cubase ($129.00)
2. Tascam US 144 USB 2.0 w/Cubase ($149.00)
3. Tapco Link.FIrewire 4x6 w/Tracktion ($100.00)
4. EMU 0404 USB 2.0 w/ Cubase ($200.00)
5. PreSonus Inspire 1394 Firewire w/ Cubase ($200.00)

I'm not sure which one to go with...

Hey all.

I'm looking to buy a good audio interface for home recording for around $170 .

Gonna be using a SM57 (but I still want an interface with phantom power if I want to get a condenser mic in the future) with it to record acoustic guitar/vox...and maybe a lil electric guitar on the side. I will be using a HP laptop with Vista 64 bit.

Hi,

Need a Portable 2 channel audio interface for recording line-in guitar or bass while travelling...what's your suggestion? though not really high budget but wish to grab some good quality in the budget gear...
Thanks!

Hi,

what will you prefer to, USB or FireWire of your audio interface?
and why?
