Unless you're recording a band, you don't need more than a few inputs for convenience ~ my Presonus burned out earlier in the month and I did a lot of research looking for a replacement and I almost bought this one.
http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/Scarlett2i2 (their website: http://www.focusrite.com/products/audio_interfaces) I opted for the emu 0404 pcie instead, but only because I didn't need a microphone pre-amp and I wanted something with good thru-put (faster than USB/Firewire) since my computer is old and processor power occasionally caused drop-outs. It works like charm. Both have a good routing interface Chris -------------------- The more I practice, the more I wish I had time to practice!

Some great points! The scarlett is a great little box. A pretty new model tool
The emu is great if you are using a tower. If you are using a laptop, not the first choice as their are no slots to fit the card in. So laptop or tower and the speed of your computer come in to play. USB interfaces lean a bit more on the cpu as do firewire interfaces. But on a newish computer, usb/firewire is usually just fine.

Todd I just bought the Scarlett 8i6, I like it, but I don't know how after recording in Reaper to put effects on my tracks. I record with distortion, but it comes out sounding all clear. I use Guitar Rig for the distortion. -------------------- Keep on playing!

Because you're not using a pre-amp, it will record the clean signal from your guitar. To apply the distortion, you have to add guitar rig to your recorded track, and that plugin will apply the effect to the output of your track (it will not change the audio file that was recorded). does this help? -------------------- The more I practice, the more I wish I had time to practice!
