Hi Charlie and Jim, Brothers? To clarify, I frequently record myself with tracks- play-alongs, etc. No issue there. I really need to upgrade the hardware and before I order, just trying to make good choices! :>) I found this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00B5ZX9FM/ref=psdc_11974651_t1_B001AS6OYC which is a great mic (one step down from the AT2035), and it's USB and has the headphone jack and volume controls for the headphone and mic output. Thoughts guys? That should yield zero latency and a high-quality large condenser for sax and flute. This way we'd eliminate the XLR/USB conversion with the audio interface. Thanks Fogles, et. al.!


Best, Warren
