I'm thinking of getting one of these, for portable use with a laptop. I
already have a couple USB audio interfaces, including the Edirol UA-20. (A
microphone can input into it, via a 1/4" adapter, but it doesn't really
have
pre-amps.) I also have the Echo Indigo I/O PC card. (Very good portable
interface, but its 1/8" input doesn't accept microphone input directly,
one
needs an external pre-amp for it in any case, might as well get a
combination interface-pre-amp.) I don't need this device to also be a MIDI
interface, as I have enough of those.
Main use for the mic input with pre-amp would be for recording vocals.
A few I have looked at:
M-Audio MobilePre
Tascam US-122
Presonus Inspire
Edirol UA-25 (unlike UA20, I believe it has pre-amps)
Could anyone compare these? Any comments on any of them? Any others you
would recommend?
