I bought a new Focusrite Scarlett 6i6 audio interface and this is how I came to make the decision. The number of inputs and outputs is really what sold me. For a small home studio it really takes me to the next level and allows for a lot of future expansion at a great price. I have used it for several months now. I have recorded guitar, voice over, and voice for Discord. All have worked great for me.
It supports the following sample rates:
44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 96 kHz, 176.4 kHz, 192 kHz
From the Sweetwater site for inputs:
Analog Inputs: 2 x XLR-1/4" combo, 2 x 1/4" (line in)
Analog Outputs: 4 x 1/4" (line out), 2 x 1/4" (headphones)
Digital Inputs: 1 x Coax (S/PDIF)
Digital Outputs: 1 x Coax (S/PDIF)
MIDI I/O: In/Out
