Which Audio Interface Should I Buy?

Post by Drexciya » Mon Nov 30, 2015 4:17 pm

First post here.

Need some advice on which audio interface to buy. Something that works solidly with 9.5 for around 250 - 300 euros.

I have no need for mic inputs, but need inputs for 4 synths.

Any ideas?

Four stereo synths? Or four mono? USB, Firewire, or Thunderbolt?

For some reason, Firewire and Thunderbolt interfaces seem to have more options for more line inputs vs mic inputs. Just about every USB interface out there seems to lean more towards mic/combi inputs, which can drive the cost up unnecessarily since you don't need expensive mic preamps.
