Hi all, I'm looking at buying a new mixer some time soon. Currently my mixer is connected to a USB audio interface via 2 stereo phono cables. That interface is then connected to my PC. However, I was wondering if the other ways of connecting a mixer, I.E USB mixers or using simple audio cables are better, and if so, why? USB mixers seem to have an advantage as far as real time monitoring and recording go, as the way my mixer is currently connected doesn't allow for real time monitoring. But this is because of the mixer's limited functionality, as well as anything else. Thanks in advance. JLS Radio is no more!
