If you are looking for a USB soundcard, I have the Yamaha Audiogram 6 here and love it. It does NOT have a midi synth. However, I received both Cubase AI 4 & Sonar LE software with mine which contains a couple of VST Synths. They will not work with Biab/RB etc . . . proprietary to those programs. They also have some awesome midi effects as well as audio in Cubase & Sonar.

The Audiogram also has a nice mixer with phantom power & some great connections built in. Ready to go once the driver is installed. Playback and recording are super clean as well. Perfect for the PG Software and my Yamaha Asio driver works flawlessly with the Real Tracks and my midi keyboard.

You can check Musicians Friend website for pricing etc . . . they may have come out with a new since I purchased mine. You can also get the latest driver at the Yamaha Corp Website. In fact, check there first to make sure they have your OS with the soundcard.
