Hey guys im using a blue snowball right now and i really want an upgrade but i need to know of a cheap interface that will plug straight into my computer.Please make it 100 or less(LESS WOULD BE BETTER)
For just one mic, the Blue Icicle is good, but it's not got any extra outputs such as speakers or headphones, it's purely a little preamp and A/D converter
the Alesis io2 is more comprehensive, 2 in's on either xlr or line/instrument with phantom power where needed, 2 out's, headphones, MIDI and SPDIF. No idea how much it is states side but's £99 this side of the pond.
As always, there's a load of questions i should ask to help better determine your actual needs from an interface. What do you record? usb or firewire? how many inputs do you need?
will the blue icicle provide phantom power?
yes. tbf if you click on the link i put it is gives you all the info on it
