I have the same interface that I started with many years back. Focusrite Saffire. 2 channels. Never needed more than those 2 and 99% of the time, a single channel sufficed.

Having a midi input on the interface is nice.... but not totally necessary.


Especially now that most MIDI inputs/outputs are USB. For those that are not there are inexpensive 5-pin MIDI to USB adapters.

64 bit Win 11 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware
