(Sorry about making so many new topics and bugging everyone)
Ok so here is the deal, all in all and final. I got the M-audiophile 192, and it’s working, but in windows recording mixer (the standard volume adjustment thing), there is nothing under recording (should it be like that?) meaning I cannot adjust the volume of the mic. Also, obviously as I have the line out plugged into the L input of the breakout cables; it’s only in the L channel. I'm looking at this simple, cheap mixer:

First of all, can I adjust the volume here? What would the set up look like? I.E. I’m thinking amp->mixer->breakout cables. Would I connect the mixer to the breakout cables by using the "main out" - would the computer then pick up a stereo signal? Also, what is the "FX" on the mixer? And how many Things can I record at once? As in, it has 6 inputs, so can I record 6 things at a time, or is that dependant on the software/sound card? Which input would the line from the amp go into? Just like line in 1? Basically, how do I plug in the guitar into the mixer and record it on the computer in stereo decently.
And then...monitors. I would be recording quite a bit, but mainly listening to music, and other things, such as playing games, audio-editing etc. So, would I either get monitors (such as the KRK RP5's) or would I simply get a decent set of speakers...why is it not possible to create a mix on a good set of speakers?
Sorry about the disorganization etc...But I don’t want to spend all my cash on stuff I don’t need. Also bear in mind these recordings are just for school projects and home recording stuff...it doesn’t need to be the best studio in the world!...Thanks everyone.
