I want to record from a Soundcraft MFXi 16 mixer, It has an RCA record out. To record it: Can I use an RCA to 3.5mm and plug it straight into my mic input on my PC, or do I need a sound card (internal or external) like this one: Click Me!
ESI Juli@ is an excellent sound card with RCA inputs and the A to D converters are very very good as well. Also has balanced analog i/o and digital i/o
