I guess two of the big questions are, how much do you want to spend? And also how many simultaneous inputs you will use?

Also you may want to ask yourself how portable you need it. I use an external USB card (Duo) that works perfect because we do most of our tracking in a different place than I do the mixing. I'm too cheap to buy 2 cards :D so I opted for the USB one that I can take back and forth with me without too much hassle.
 
I would suggest the audiophile, also.


Since all you need are 2INs/2OUTs (plus it will also give you 2 SPDIF iNS/OUTS, which will help you to make no-loss transfers from/to the VS880).

Peace...
