do i need an interface of some sort to plug into my sound card or is there a way to plug my guitar right into my computer to use my sonar 8 cakewalk? I had Dell build me a computer specifically for recording music so I know there is a good sound card in it but i just do not have a clue how to get my guitar into it. i bought a tascam interface that came with a mic but the driver would not load because i have a vista 64 bit and it said it was a 32 bit driver so i took it back...just want to know do i really need the interface before i go searching for someone that makes one for 64 bit vista..please help..
