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.

I need a solution for recording drums with the Lexicon lambda. I have been Micing drums by putting a sm58 right up against the hole on the kick, and a mxl 991 over head. The recorded sounds nice and i can mix them in seperate tracks using Cubase LE, except i cant controll the snare as much as i'd like to.

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!

I'm looking at investing in one of these. Does anyone have one or know much about them?

The reason I need it is so that I can record drums properly, with multiple mics, with each track assigned to a track on Cubase.

I have the mbox 2, and i wanted to get a better mic sound, so i've been researching preamps.
How would i hook up a tube preamp to my mbox? would i just use the mic DI into the preamp, and use the output on the preamp into the input on the mbox?

Ok, so I am 100% new to this, but I am in a basement band (we prefer it to the garage) and my friend/fellow guitarist has some pretty decent equipment. Currently we record in his basement, but it's all one track and takes multiple tries to get everything balanced the way we want, not to mention the quality isn't great.

Hey,
So I've got this PreSonus Firebox that I've been using from a few years now on my desktop just fine. But since it is powered by 6 pin firewire, it cannot be used on my HP Laptop (I've tried express cards but they do not work). I'm looking to buy a new interface (Firebox isn't working anymore), but I'm wondering. which one is best for PC Laptop users?

ever since i purchased my mbox 2 mini i have had a problem getting decent volume from my mics through the low-z XLR input. both of the 1/4" line inputs work fine when plugged into a guitar amp. the mbox 2 mini is supposed to have a preamp on the XLR input but i have to crank the gain up to 10 to hear anything from both of my mics.
