Still in the hunt for a USB interface on a low budget, I almost got a great deal on the M-audio Fast track pro, at the price of R800.00 I really wasn't too concerned about specs as the price made it a real easy buy. well that fell through....
now I'm buying local and I'm in the R1500.00 to R2000.00 price range, and I'm looking at either the Scarlett 2i2, or Roland's Duo Capture EX of which both fall in that price bracket.
My recording setup for now would be this:
Guitar into Cube 80, Line-out into interface and then USB to DAW. I would also later consider miking up the guitar and amp for recording, and maybe vocals. I'm also planning on recording bass guitar directly with the interface and using software to emulate the amp. Recordings will not be used for anything much, maybe putting some tracks on soundcloud, no professional use or commercial releases or anything
so which one of these would be the best, I read some of the more technical specs but being totally new to interfaces they mean nothing to me. Should I worry about things like 24-bit 96kHz of the 2i2 compared to 24-bit/48kHz of the Roland? Will this even make a difference for the simple features I require for now? ???
Any help/input/suggestions will be appreciated! ?
