depends, are you recording multiple tracks simultaneously? if so you'll need a mixer and the mbox is best. if you can record seperately, all u need is a 1/4 > 1/8 converter.

I would definitely suggest the mbox if you don't want to buy a mixer and then buy a new soundcard to record in stereo. Else, you'll need an ASIO compliant soundcard. Mbox, most likely worth it for you.
