1. M-Audio Fast Track USB MKII
This one audio interface may be familiar to the people in the recording world. I can admit M-Audio Fast Track is one of the audio interface with relatively cheap price but has very good quality. A relatively small and lightweight physical form makes this one audio interface easy to carry and is perfect for those of you who are often looking for different places to inspire.

2. Steinberg CI2+
Audio Interface is one of the favorites among home studio because the price is very cheap compared to other audio interfaces in its class. Steinberg CI2+ has 2 input/2 output and already has phantom power on both inputs. Coupled with Quick Control Knob that can be integrated to control panel panels in cubase. Not to mention the presence of Hi-Z input will allow you to record the instrument by direct input.

3. Presonus Audio Box USB
For the Desktop Interface class, Presonus Audio Box has a very minimalist size but excellent sound quality. This audio interface has 2 input / 2 output plus phantom power with a very solid body and sturdy. The quality of internal preamps found on the Presonus Audio Box is also very good. Even some indie artists also use this Presonus soundcard to record all the songs on their debut album. With a price of about $ 99.95, in my opinion Presonus Audio Box is an audio interface for home recording is quite feasible to reckon with.

4. Focusrite Scarlett 2i2
Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 is the audio interface with the highest sample rate, which is 96 kHz. With this sample rate you can get excellent audio quality. Supported also with a typical focusrite preamp technology that produces clear and warm sound. Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 wrapped with red aluminum casing that gives the impression of luxury and elegance coupled with phantom power input on both inputs. But if you are planning to record guitar with high input pickup, you should prepare more funds to buy DI Box, this is because Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 is not able to receive the hot signal that causes clipping even though the input gain is very small.
Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 spesification
- Great-sounding Focusrite front-end for studios that don’t need a lot of channels
- Up to 24-bit/96kHz AD/DA for pristine sound quality
