| I can't help but recommend the Firewire interface that I own; the Mackie Onyx 400F. Pristine pre-'s, lots of outs, inserts on 4 channels, good converters. Very well built. Very few con's on this baby. ... |

| Get an RCA to 1/8" cable. Plug the RCA ends into the "Tape Out L/R" on the Behringer Mixer and the 1/8" jack into the "Line In" on the computer soundcard. |

CPU : P4 2.0 GHz
