I am purchasing Sonar Home Studio 7 xl in a few weeks. I will be installing it on my windows 7 64 bit system. I currently am using a xenyx 802 mixer as well.. I currently go from my guitar processor into xenyx mixing board into soundcard on computer. My older cakewalk doesnt work with windows 7 and no drivers available so thus I am upgrading to Home Studio 7 xl.
With Home Studio 7 xl AND a mixer, would I need an audio interface? I've been reading reviews and comparing features and prices and it all seems a bit daunting. I'd like to get away with not having one if I don't need one. But, if I do need one, I will pick one up..
Assuming I need one, I've been looking at this: TASCAM US-100 USB Audio Interface.
I don't think it has the ASIO drivers, but if it's to basically take the place of my sound card, wouldn't it be better than nothing??
All I will be recording is guitar, and (bass and drums from Home studio instruments). I would probably only worry about latency from my recorded guitar tracks as that's the only instrument I will be recording directly
Thanks,
Andy
