Alright now help me pick my next interface/preamp? Win7

     My current interface is a tascam (can you say crap drivers?) and i desperately need a new one. Anything that [Works great] with windows 7 and has at least 2 inputs? Can go up to $500 but hopefully that wont be necessary? I can lay down another 5 bills for a great preamp.

    I like my Focusrite Scarlett 18i6. It sounds great and the drivers work flawlessly with Windows 7. The price is well below your budget too!

    The TC Konnect 6 is $200.  stereo in, one preamp, no midi.  But the sound quality is stellar, and the latest drivers work great for me - and I don't think they've had any 64 bit problems (I use 32).  Check the forums, but if stereo i/o is all you need, it is hard to beat the TCK 6 - even w/ a stick.

    I highly recommend looking at the Roland QuadCapture- 

    Rolands latest drivers ae really good and it is a good low latency running interface.
