Best way to work with my software and Midi interface.

[mettec]

I am interested in purchasing a i2M or B2M. I currently play bass for a Top40/Hip Hop/R&B/dance group and want to get certain synth type sounds that I have with IK Multimedia's Sonik Synth 2 Software on my laptop computer. What I am wondering is if I plug the i2M into my laptop and laptop USB to my Tascam Audio/Midi Interface, is this the best way to achieve getting into the sounds on the software? Would it be better to have the B2M instead and just plug it into my Midi in on the Tascam?

Any help with this would be great

Thanks.

Either option would work. The B2M might be a little easier to set up (and a bit cheaper) but the i2M is much more configurable and gives you more creative options with the MIDI setup.
