Monitor - need to upgrade.

I have always mixed through headphones but want to get some small desk top monitors. A simple question. How do they connect to your PC? My 5:1 surround sound connects to the back of the PC tower using three mini-jacks whilst my headphone amp links via the audio interface. How do these desk top monitors connect? Is it through one of these connections?

One thing to consider with the Scarlett 212,
It has no Midi in/out.
If your Midi controller is USB into the puter, of course, no problem.

If you need Midi on the interface.
This is excellent from Steinberg, and comes with a cut down version
of Cubase (if you need it).

£89 at the moment.

I went for the UR22 for the reason you stated, the midi connections. I rarely use them but rarely is not never so, for the sake of £5....!! Thanks again!!

When you get it and are up and running,
make sure to register the unit at Steinberg.
There was a driver update a couple of weeks ago for download.
