M-AUDIO M-Track Duo USB-B Audio Interface

 The M-Audio M-Track Duo desktop 2×2 USB audio interface provides two channels of transparent preamps and converters, easy operability, and a helpful software bundle of DAWs, virtual instruments, and plug-ins.

With its two XLR-1/4″ combo mic/line/instrument inputs, the M-Track Duo can simultaneously accommodate two mics (dynamic/condenser), two electric guitars, or one of each while offering separate signal indicators and gain controls for both inputs. Since the interface has two 1/4″ TRS monitor outputs and a 1/4″ headphone output, each with their own level controls, you can connect active speakers and a set of headphones and adjust their volumes independently. The built-in direct monitor function lets you hear the zero-latency live input signal in mono or stereo, or monitor the USB return signal from your computer, so you can smoothly transition from tracking, to overdubbing, to mixing.
