Behringer U-Phoria UM2

If you want to upgrade your "only for playbacks" Home studio to a high quality "Recording studio", You will need a lot of things, and it's best to start with a good audio interface that can hold beck the latency and give you great sound without any bumps/ticks/hiss/humm.. and can supply a high voltage when using a Condenser Mic.
It's light and can also be your best friend if your'e having a DJ gig somewhere, it has all plugs needed!
I bought this Behringer when I only wanted to record a short vocal session in my own home studio.
I got such a great result so I'm using it a lot now!
and not only for recording vox at home, but for creating and processing heavy FX live when needed.

The low price is another bonus for this high quality machine!

Behringer is a company which I personally trust to have high quality products, I'm using this interface with their B-1 mic condenser .

Cheers!

Got for a great price. Other similar convertors on-line but this gizmo on desktop is so easy to use. Came with a tonne on paperwork, instructions but once you realise its all different language you can start without as its very obvious how to opperate. My Mac detected automatically and been playing electric guitar straight into Garageband.

Good latency with my setup, use it to connect a guitar to a laptop, couldn't be happier, definitely good equipment for the money. haven't tested doing recordings but for my needs it gets the job done better than I expected.

Great piece of kit. Sounds good given the price, easy to use. Driver download was easy and hassle free. For home recording you can't go wrong with this and Behringer in general.

A great value semi professional product that does exactly what it should and opens the door to home recording to many. Make sure you download the corrcet driver so it will work on your PC , otherwise yu will just look at it for days.
