i'm not really into recording and stuff, but i just want something that's ok sounding when i need to record :).
so far i got a vocal pro mixer like this one

a shure PG58 microphone like this

a sherwood RD 6108 reciever
and a Sound Blaster PCI 16 sound card
looking at this, i'm telling myself, this is crap, but i can't do much since i'm only a poor student :), so i figure the best thing to do to improve this setting is to grab myself a new sound card. So what i'm really asking is, what's a good sound card that can do a little recording under 100 bucks? just very basic vocal record and such.
I'm thinking of the sound blaster live 5.1, or the sound blaster audigy, or sound blaster audigy 2. (i only know of the sound blaster brand cuzz all my life all i've heard of sound cards are sound blasters).
any how those are all under 100 bucks, is there any other brands i should be looking at? thanks in advance.
PS: out of the 3 listed above which one is good for the cost (most bang for the bucks :))
 
i won't need that much input and out put though :) is there another one that's cheaper? and how does delta compares to SB live! or SB audigy or audigy 2?
 
the convertors on the delta cards blow all the creative cards clean out the water.
 
Don't buy a soundcrapper, you'll regret it.

Get the Delta 410, or Revolution 7.1
Both the same price, both MUCH better than a soundcrapper.
 
change of plan, turns out i'll have to use the money for something else. now i'm left with 50 bucks, so i'll be going for the SB live! for 30 bucks, or maybe the audigy 1 for 50 bucks.
And i've just found out that i have in my system is the SB PCI 128 not the SB 16. anyways will i notice any different with the upgrade to the audigy 1 or the SB live! in the recording department? plz replies soon, hehe my local shop has the audigy 1 onsale for only 40 bucks, slash me 10 bucks to spare :)

to sum it all up
audigy 1 for 40
SB live! for 30
and will i notice anything different if I upgrade? and if i do, which one should i go with? the audigy 1 or the SB live, and right now i have the SB PCI 128
