Without a doubt.... get the USB interface. You will not regret it.


Be sure to get one that has the features you need and want.

Be sure it:

runs ASIO drivers and not codecs and wrappers.

has nice clean preamps for audio (check out Focusrite)

has phantom power for condenser mics

has sufficient outputs for studio monitors and what ever else you want to use like headphone amp, etc...

has a sufficient number of inputs to match the DAW ...at least 2 is normal.

It's the heart of the studio so invest in a nice one.
