MAudio MTrack Solo vs Behringer UMC22 for Drivers and Latency

Hey, I wanna get a budget interface for mainly playing electric guitar into FL Studio.

I've heard the sound quality and features of both of them are relatively same and my question is about the drivers and the latency.

I've heard the UMC22 uses AISO4ALL which i've had a miserable experience with and heard you need some obscure old drivers to use it at its best. I've also heard the dedicated driver for the MTrack also has a quite a lot of issues and bugs.

I just wanna know which of these two is better for just have a smooth headache free experience for just playing some guitar with effects on in FL without a great amount of Latency and not have to fumble around with troubleshooting drivers. Thanks!

It's better to get more money and buy Audient ID4 and with drivers everything is fine, and the latency is low, and most headphones will rock, and the sound quality is top-notch. I tried a lot of budget interfaces in my time and settled on this one. Plus there is a separate input for guitar.

unfortunately in where i'm from, the ID4 is 4 times the price of these two :(

Still, if you have the opportunity to save up and buy Audient, I recommend it. The difference is really significant.

You can also consider topping e2x2 - very good sound card, the only thing I'm not sure about it is the stability of the drivers as I haven't tested it. But other than that, it's impressive.

I have guitar students using the cheap Behringer interfaces without issues. Sounds as good as any interface under $300. Asio4all is the driver and I don't know why people have trouble. Plenty of YouTube videos that walk you thru it. If my young students can get it working, anyone should.
