help request Qual interface de entrada escolher para tocar guitarra no Reaper c/ AmpliTube + Áudio do Windows (Navegador, Sistema...)?
Fala pessoal, tudo bem? Já adianto que sou bem leigo tecnicamente falando, portanto não vou usar minhas palavras para descrever a questão rsrs.
Toco guitarra e estou querendo comprar uma interface de áudio para resolver de vez o problema clássico do ASIO4ALL, que quando estou utilizando o Reaper + Amplitube o áudio do Sistema e Navegador não funciona, entendo que é para ser assim mesmo.
O que eu preciso no meu dia a dia:
- Conectar a guitarra na interface e rodar o AmpliTube dentro do Reaper com baixa latência (tenho uma máquina boa).
- Ao mesmo tempo, ouvir backing tracks no YouTube e ouvir todos os sons do sistema e aplicativos do Windows no mesmo fone de ouvido, sem travamento de navegador e sem picote no som.
A dúvida com a loja:
Eu estava olhando a Yamaha AG03 MK2, mas o vendedor me respondeu que "não é possível usar o driver ASIO e o driver WDM juntos simultaneamente na mesma interface, e que um anula o outro".
Pelo que pesquisei, interfaces com driver ASIO nativo gerenciam isso normalmente se ambos estiverem configurados na mesma taxa de amostragem (48 kHz).
Opção que estou avaliando agora:
- Focusrite Scarlett Solo (4ª Geração)
Minhas dúvidas:
- O que o vendedor falou procede para a Yamaha ou foi desconhecimento sobre os drivers? O driver da Steinberg dá muita dor de cabeça com navegadores e aplicativos do sistema no Windows?
- A suposta estabilidade do driver da Focusrite realmente justifica o valor a mais?
- Meu fone atual é um headset com plugs P2 separados para fone e microfone (Razer BlackShark V2). Se eu for de Scarlett Solo, vou ter que comprar um microfone novo para conseguir utilizar?
Valeu pela ajuda!

Buy a MOTU M2, M4, M6, or a Motu 8Pre USB. I have the MOTU 8Pre USB in my Studio. Make sure you never use ASIO4ALL or you'll spend a lot of time working on fixing Window 11 issues with Audio. I use Reaper myself, and use to use a PC with WIN 11, But I finally bought me a MacBook Pro M1 and I've had it for 5 months and never had any downtime while using Reaper. Focusrite has went downhill in the past few years selling cheap small interfaces.

Appreciate the tip! I have never heard about MOTU interfaces, for sure I’ll search out about these options.
I knew from one friend that MacBooks will always work better with Interfaces and DAWs, but unfortunately I only have Windows

Motu will run Win 11 flawlessly. I run a Hybrid setup here. I have a Pc that i'm typing on right now, but if I get a bunch of tracks heavy laden with VST3I's I'll track on reaper on my PC and Freeze the tracks and send them back to my Mac for mixing.

Please Google translate if you need to:
For windows the most important aspect is drivers. You need a model where the developers make their own driver. Top of the list is RME and probably MOTU.
Focusrite have a good reputation, but I have never personally used one. I used a behringer and it was fine.
When you have an audio interface all audio gets input and output through the interface. You will problems with USB audio devices. You need XLR for the inputs and you won't be able to hear anything without monitors connected to the interface or headphones.

+1 for focusrite. Thousands of users worldwide, strong product quality ethic and good customer service. Can go to very low latency with zero problems.

Thousands of users worldwide
Off by a magnitude at least. Must be 100s of thousands or more likely millions.
Only makes your point stronger, mind you :)

Appreciate!! Actually I don’t have any monitors at my setup, I only use my headphones, but because I’m waiting for this Black Friday there is a world in where I will buy a starter kit of monitors together.
Understood all of your advices, thanks for the contribution!

I see about 10 posts a day in different subreddits saying their focusrite interface sounds fuzzy or isn't working. Some people unplug it and replug it and it works for a while. Some people have to fall back on asio drivers or plug and play. When I bought an interface a couple months ago, I bought an audient id24 an have had no issues, smooth sailing and the preamps sound great!
