So I'm planning to build a setup for producing/recording music! I'm not too experienced, and have always made ways to avoid having physical hardware for my digital recordings(FL-ASIO, Rocksmith USB cable, Audacity audio streaming and digital audio cable). However, the latency is horrible and ASIO4ALL restrains me from hearing my own playing while recording line-in, which is why I used FL ASIO.
I don't plan to use a mic, I'd like a build that is compatible with virtual amps(BIAS FX, Guitar Rig).
Can anyone help me out?
What I have planned:
Radial Pro Dl Passive Direct Box
Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 (1st GENERATION) USB Audio Interface
Creative Sound Blaster Audigy PCIe RX 7.1 Sound Card with High Performance Headphone Amp
What I already have:
Quad Core 3.4 GHz Intel Haswell
Onboard sound card(RealTek High Definition Audio)
Reaper DAW
Guitar Rig 5
Windows 7
Not exactly sure I'd need both an audio interface AND a sound card from what I've been reading, but any input would be very much appreciated.
I'm assuming the connection procedure is: Guitar -> Audio Interface -> PC on-board USB -> Win7 -> DAW -> Playback through USB headphones.
I aim to be able to hear my guitar through my headphones as I'm recording, otherwise it's really hard to tell what kind of sounds I'm getting real-time.
