Thanks guys! Budget won out, and I went with the 67G.. You are correct (I assume, never used one!) that I may not want to use it for close micing applications.. But, as is the usual disclaimer of my posts "Who knows what I may do in the future, due to budget/equipment constraints". :D

Thanks for the reply! Handy, or necessary? Necessary if I try to record drums or a guitar cab (which I may or may not do in the future I suppose)? Just having severe budget issues at the moment! hah (Speaking of Pads, I mean)

Need to purchase another affordable condenser, and was looking at these two. From all the research I've done, the only difference is a high pass filter, and a 6db pad. The filter, I assume it would be better to do in my DAW. But what about the pad? Is this something that will come in use? I know...

I didn't realize there was a hardware section, my mistake!

Thanks guys.. ok, Behringer out for good then, as I have no experience, and you guys do! I currently have a stable w8.1 (stable enough, i suppose), but, I have a thing with upgrading OSs.. Call it a hobby! haha Although, you are correct, if I were to try to record a full drum kit, it would be...

Thanks again guys (I've never had a USB port turn off on me, which is why I'm curious why so many people are reporting it with the 1800).. I'musing w8.1 at the moment.. Who knows in the future. They are being discontinued (talked to music stores) so maybe price will drop, but maybe support will...

So every site I read about the 1800, those usb cycling power issues come up... Hardware issue, or computer setup issue? That would be the deciding factor right there, i would think (Since Sonar x2 doesn't like it when the Interface is disconnected, the program has to be restarted.. At least for...

This power cycle issue I keep reading about is slowly swaying me to the 16x08.. It's too bad I have no idea if it will have the same problems! :D

Thanks! Well drums are secondary, but at some point, I WILL be recording a full band, so drum mics, plus guitar amps, vocals, and bass.. But yes, at this price range, two instrument ins from a 'reputable' company seems to be Tascam.. Although as I said, the Behringer seems to have Instrument in...

yes, you are correct, with a $50 rebate!! Oh man, now this complicated things further (or simplifies them, I suppose). haha Musicians friend is having 15%, so it would be $254 or so for the 16x08. However, I am not planning on purchasing until the new year, so that may be out the window. I...

Thanks again!! So maybe I'll pass on the Behringer, unfortunately. The price is tempting (for the new one, the UMC 1820 (January release, I think), they are talking about some Midas Preamps.. I know nothing about such things.. Anyone know anything?) As for the Tascam, if I go that route (Which...

Thanks for the reply! I've never had any experience with Behringer, so good to know! The US 16x08 isn't released yet either, but is Tascam known for poor quality as well? My only experience with them was a 4-track in the 90's, and even then I went with Yamaha. I imagine the internals are...

"Affordable" USB Interface options. Tascam vs Behringer? (US1800 US16x08 vs UMC1820 On your guys recommendation, I purchased an EMU 0404 many a year ago.. it has run it's course, and now it's time to buy again, unfortunately! I think I'd like to upgrade to something with as many inputs as...

Yeah, that's weird.. THey are listed as NOT linked.. and I tried to do another one, and the check mark isn't there.. So that's not the problem. For example, when I copy and paste, they all show the number 46 in them, for example.. And still, if I change one, they all change.. THey are listed as...
