1/ Athlon 1 ghz/256 mb ram PC with Hoontech Soundtrack Audio DSP24 MK2
2/ Mixer Berhringer mx1604a
3/ Yamaha CBXK1-XG controller keyboard.
The DAW will mainly be running OrionPro/AcidPro/Logic-Sonar or Cubase (still to be decided) and the usual VST plugins etc
First i had thought to go for the Hoontech with the 8 io breakout box as reviewed here on DT but than it occured to me that for a little more I could get the Behringer mixer with balanced i/o for +/- the same extra-money layout and access to more channels.
Now I see things as follows :
Hook up synth, PC - soft-synth, external tapedeck/turntable, ... to the Behringer - submix there and feed this back to the PC for recording in Logic/Sonar/Cubase ... using one of the balanced i/o of the Hoontech ...
Is this a 'wise'decision or should I go for the breakout box nevertheless ...

I had an idea for a script once. It's basically Jaws except when the guys in the boat are going after Jaws, they look around and there's an even bigger Jaws. The guys have to team up with Jaws to get Bigger Jaws.... I call it... Big Jaws!!!

The Behringer is mostly based on the price/quality.
My own favourite goes to the Spirit M8 (with S/pdif out) or SX
Any advise on mixers in the 300-500$ range

but looking at our list , you dont have aoutboard gear, just want to control s/w synths and ad vocals right?.... s um, mebbe like I say, scap the idea of a mixer and get a joemeek or hootersound mic unit for the mic (which'll also get you a great compressor easy to use and a nice vocal sound)...
