Description

Audio interfaces convert microphone and instrument signals into a format your computer and software recognize. The interface also routes audio from your computer out to your headphones and studio monitors.

It acts as the bridge between the music you create and your DAW (digital audio workstation). Audio interfaces often include built-in preamps, headphone jacks, and monitor controls, and they come in various types to accommodate Thunderbolt, USB, FireWire, Ethernet, and PCI connections. Plus, audio interfaces are available at several price points, from budget-friendly units to advanced professional models. If you plan on making music using a computer, you'll need an audio interface!

AT2020... now I need some Audio Interface Recommendations

Hey guys, first post :)

I need some help choosing a CHEAP audio interface.

Basically so far I am getting an AT2020 to record Acoustic and then Vocals (this is all that I'll be recording).

I have about another AU$150 (about US$115) to spend on a cheap interface.. Are there any worth the money around this amount or should I hold off?

How come the digi002 only goes up to about 1000 samples and my soundcard which is a peice of crap supports much much much more samples for playback? I cant even play back some songs with not that many tracks because of it.

what smaller audio interfaces have a good buffer size?

or do I need a soundcard for a good buffer size?

Audio Interface to replace a Tascam US-122?

anonymous 23 July 2005

I currently have a Tascam US-122 and am looking to upgrade. I would like S/PDIF ins and outs and don't want to spend more than $250-300. Also, it needs 24-bit capabilities. Some of the M-Audio FW stuff is appealing, but I have heard there are problems with the drivers for OS X and are just problematic. Any ideas?
