Hi All, This is my first post on the forums and i plan to be here quite often! (Thanks Mat Zo!)
My question is about getting an interface or just a DAC converter. At the moment i have a 2015 macbook pro (Just upgraded from my 2010) and i produce on Logic Pro X. I am looking to set up a simple studio and WONT be using monitors in my set up because they are too loud to use in my apartment complex.
For mixing my tracks i go to a friends place who has a nice monitor setup with a treated room and do all of that there. What i am looking for is a cheap interface that will allow me to get a better quality sound from my laptop to my headphones for optimum production efficiency. Again, this is the only need i have for the interface.
I dont want to spend too much money now since i will eventually be getting monitors and will need a decent interface for them.
Ive been looking at the Behringer UM2 for $32 to get the job done but i just dont know if it will produce the quality i want even if it is only for headphones.
