Need soundcard with microphone input

[javaTN]

Hi all, i just ordered the novation nio 2|4 and let me tell you something... dont buy it! I expected it to be my godsend of a soundcard, however I am displeased with its unreliable drivers and latency.

So... what I was looking for in a soundcard was ultimately that I could output to cue headphones, and then another set of outputs for the master (PA system). Additionally, I need the ability to use a microphone.

My question now is... what soundcard around $200 or less can I get to do this... that also has reliable drivers and low latency. I have plans on returning my Nio.

Please help, I have a gig in 3 weeks and would like to order a new card asap!

Thanks!
Tom

Nevermind about my question.

I just decided tonight after lots of research I should just go for the Native Instruments Audio 8 DJ... so... I just ordered it. I dont think i'll be the least bit unhappy with this new choice!

good choice, i was going to say audio 8. also, you could always just adapt a microphone xlr cable to work with any soundcard.
