Hey Guys,

I'm brand new to the recording game and was wondering what the best budget preamp/audio interfaces were for home recording. I have a new macbook pro and want to record guitar and vocals.
In terms of budget I probably don't want to spend much more than $200 as I'm also buying a mic.

Any help would be awesome, thanks :)

Looking for the best value one of these.

I have a 2011 macbook pro and am looking for an interface to use, opinions on best value with phantom power for inputs?

I've heard to stay away from prosonus and m-audio is OK but not much else, and advice will be helpful.
For use with an SM58 for vocals.
Also for recording guitar.

Hey,

I have a problem.

on Adobe Audition, or REAPER or any other audio program they dont seem to find my microphone input/output device :s. The only thing that is listed are my speakers of my computer.

I need a little help.

I’m looking to buy a http://www.PreSonus… PreSonus[/]="http://www.PreSonus… PreSonus[/] AudioBox USB, however I don’t know much about this stuff and I need some help.

I’m looking to buy a PreSonus AudioBox USB, however I don’t know much about this stuff and I need some help.

Currently I don’t have any studio monitors or headphones that would connect to the AudioBox, but do I really need studio monitors or a pair of headphones?

What are the core differences between USB and Firewire? How many I/O can each handle simultaneously, what are the data transfer rate differences, advantages or disadvantages of each? Are there limitations?

Hello guys.

Is it possible to record multiple separated tracks live with Logic or Ableton using this?

The fact is that I use to make live performances with many synths and I would like to record each on a individual track at the same time. I know that I could use a MOTU or other sound card but the mixer sounds good and it is more afordable.

Any suggestions? I only need it for one thing and that is have an input for my Turntable, nothing else.
