The very last thing I would want to do Mr Chili is "muddy" anyone's plans!
Had the OP not expressed an interest in MIDI I would not have written as I did. The Focusrite 2i2 IS afine interface (tho' not without some issues in the past) but it is not a MIDI interface. Neither is the Oxygen and they have even cheaped out on a DIN out (which is about all the extra "bits" you need inside!).
I could understand your comment Mr C if there was a cost or performance penalty to choosing the the UR22 but there isn't as far as I am aware? There is also the bonus IMHO of the best MIDI software in Cubase for free! Win- win?
As for USB "taking over" from DIN for MIDI? I know of no MIDI device so far that can be daisy chained via USB with another? .....Mind you, if we don't all watch it ONLY expensive stuff will have MIDI DINs very soon!
