I'm looking to buy an audio interface to record music one-by-one multitrack from my synth into some yet-to-be-determined DAW to be digitally mixed and made into songs.
my budget is small...
I'm thinking either Focusrite Scarlett Solo 2nd Gen or Steinberg UR-22. the UR22 looks good because it has MIDI meaning I won't have to buy another seperate thing to sequence my synthesizer. However it only has two XLR inputs and I'm only really familiar with 1/4 inch type sounds. My synth has an XLR output, but I usually use the 1/4 inch so that I can run it through effects pedals.
So is it a good idea to convert 1/4 in to XLR using some kind of converter? how much will that cost?

The UR22 does have TRS inputs, they're the big hole in the middle of the XLR input.

Never do that in a live setup, but it's decent enough unless there's shit wiring on your room
great seems like the obviously better option then.
have you any experience with either? I don't really want to spend more than $150 at this point and two mic inputs + midi I/O seems like a great deal. but obviously quality comes first, no latency or clipping or issues...

Made a fucked up hip-hop snippet today. Is this just shit, or a bit interesting? Mixed it in dual-mono.
this doesn't do much for me, what do you want to achieve? the middle section is more interesting than the beginning, which is too repetitive. also, why is it in mono? might become more powerful if you widen it.
