I got a decent PC, 2.8mHz/80GB HD/& 512MB ram. I just picked up Cakewalks' Music Creator Pro but I still have the original on-board Sound Card in the PC. I'd love to drop a couple hundred on the right Sound Card but I just don't have it to spend. What's the least expensive Sound Card I can get that will get me started? It's ok if it doesn't record 4 instruments at once. This is mainly a singer-songwriter demo situation.
 
Agree with both cards listed above but Esi Juli@ should be also mentioned. My top list is 1. Juli@, 2. 0404, 3. Audiophile. Juli@ has the best sound quality.
 
Maya is a good choice but it has two weaknesses:
1. playback quality is worse in comparison with other ones. Even SB Audigy plays music better than Maya.
2. It does not have MIDI port so if you need it you must buy an additional daughter card.
