I heard the Emu 1616M is a good choice, though it's also $450. It includes an internal sound card for the computer and an external device for connecting instruments/mics/etc.
I'm also interested in getting a mixer to go along with this. As an alternative for an internal sound card, I came across this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16829271001 ...though I am unaware of the value in that, and if I am getting a mixer perhaps I should get something similar to the Emu 1616 regardless. Does anybody know if there is a more affordable alternative to the Emu 1616M? Here's a Yamaha small mixer that might go well with my computer: http://www.zzounds.com/item--YAMMG102C ...unless there are better alternatives? Here's the Emu 1616M: http://www.zzounds.com/item--EMU1616MPCI After I decide on computer hardware and mixer, I will get a mic, possibly a Shure SM57... http://www.zzounds.com/item--SHUSM57LC Thank you in advance for any input.
