As a working professional, I am often asked, what interface should I buy?<\/em> As a starting point, you need to look at what suits you as a musician, podcaster, audiophile, or audio professional. Each discipline has many facets, some common, and others a world away from each other. But my recommendation is that you should buy the best that you can afford and give yourself as much “future proofing” as you are able to.<\/p>\n

Thankfully, brands have bundled audio interfaces with digital audio workstations (DAWs) into a two-in-one package. <\/p>\n

Here are the top-rated ones that will get you started on your audio production work now: <\/p>\n

Behringer Tracktion 4:<\/strong><\/h4>\n

If budget is a consideration, then you might look at the Behringer range of audio interfaces. This includes the U-Phoria range, which starts with the UM 2, a basic interface with two ins and two outs and no MIDI, and ranges up to the UMC404HD, which has four ins and four outs and MIDI connectivity, as well.<\/p>\n

This offers a lot of scope for anyone wanting to get sound in and out of a computer. They are basic machines that come with additional recording software, Tracktion 4. It is a good piece of software that will be very beneficial to you when trying to get your head around multitrack recording. You can learn the functions of an audio track and setting up a few more tracks, a bit of recording and mixing, and it has simple and effective input\/output configurations. <\/i><\/p>\n

Tracktion 4 is packed with top-notch production tools for musicians, composers, and songwriters. This intuitive, single-screen software not only has the same critically acclaimed Rack Filters paradigm, but is also now free of charge and supports the loading of video files. <\/span><\/p>\n
