OK. The Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 has two inputs which can be used eirher for
'mic' or 'line' inputs as you wish. It also has input gain controls and a
simple level indicator. So you can adjust the levels to suit. It provides a
headphone monitor output with its own volume control.

It also has two line outputs. But uses jacks/XLRs, so you may need adaptors
if you're using Phono plugs.

The page I referred to does show measured results. But mainly as graphs
which won't be much use from your POV. However its performance is clearly
better than the cheaper devices I tested.

It is powered via USB and is Class compliant.

I did post this yesterday but its gone missing. it is simple its just an
analogue in line level line out card we need but the one we have has a
fixed monitor level, and hence cannot be controlled or indeed switched
of to allow editing of the recording.

its using software we have to use unfortunately called newsbridge which
has an imbalance between record and play levels in any case making the
issue worse. Brian
