What hardware do you use for multiple audio input from audio mixer? I need two different inputs for streaming.
I'm thinking about this card: http://www.esi-audio.com/products/maya44xte/
Or maybe this Portable USB Audio Interface could do job as well? us.focusrite.com/usb-audio-interfaces/scarlett-2i2

Roland Tri-Capture is cheap and works. I imagine the above choices would also really depends on how friendly the drivers work out to be.

Tri-Capture looks old fashioned, but I'm not trying to win any style awards with my sound capture device. Just wanted portable and reliable with decent sound quality, external to the computer so never picks up any noise/interference generated by the computer.

@ Lzrd

I use a USB mixer (Behringer XENYX 1204USB to be specific).
If your mixer is not USB capable and you are not looking at replacing it then either of the two options (or something similar) you present will likely be workable solutions, it's just a matter of choosing which one suits your workflow and budget best.
Personally, I prefer the USB option as that does not eat up an expansion slot on my MB that I can use for other I/O options.
