USB audio interface is kinda rare and very expensive here at Kota Kinabalu, Sabah.

At this moment, i only know 2 shop and a private studio sells home studio equipment and stuff.

Now i want some advice because i couldn't find any info or much more solid demo for these USB Audio interface,
BTW, is for Digital piano recording purposes, but i intend to record acoustic guitar and vocals too in near future.

Alesis IO2 HUB

Focusrite Scarlett 2i2

Behringer U-Phoria UMC22

Focusrite cost around Rm600, so does the Alesis IO2 HUB.

What i really love about the Alesis IO2 Hub is the design, if you look at it, the input and output is at the rear, no cords will be bothered during volume control or messing around the knob. Focusrite sounds very very clear and professional to me. I love how the knob has a led and stuff which is useful for monitoring, and for Behringer UMC22, decent quality for its price range and is the cheapest compared the other 2 which is roughly around Rm500.

If any of you have/had these audio interface and record on a keyboard, please give me sample demo!!! =3

And if there is any other models or brand i should look out for, please tell me.

I did say i intend to record acoustic guitar and vocals too in near future, my other choice would be the focusrite scarlett 2i4.

I suggest Focusrite as their pre-amps are pretty good.

Never buy Behringer products..

PS: If you are interested, I have a spare M-Audio Mtrack 2 to go. PM me

I agree, focusrite has pretty decent ad/da for its price range, its well worth it. What would it cost to order it from Peninsula, would it be prohibitively expensive for you? Still need a mic for all that acoustic though.

firstly i will gave u few more options for audio interfaces around that price range.
Presonus audio box
Focusrite scarlett 2i2 (mentioned)
Steinberg UR22 (around RM600)
Roland UA33 (around RM600 as well)
and few more brands that u can consider as well like M-audio ~motu~Native Instruments,Avid

for an audio interfaces for ur options above i will suggested focusrite for sure , great preamps and sounds for sure , and for behringer its not that bad for that price range , but i strongly sggest u go for further which focusrite /presonus , and the DAW softwares bundle also one of the consideration for choosing an interface. yea sarawakian here so prob know ur problems bout prices

Ahh... Behringer? Not really recommending that as got a lot of negative feedback from others, the only thing that make them sound nice is the PRICE~ My suggestion is just go for Focusrite or Steinberg UR12 since you only record guitar, vocal, and digital piano.
