Hello!

With what you have right now you won't get much out of it! If you only have the soundcard on your computer, you can connect the outs of the virus to a single stereo jack input - with one of those cables 2 jacks to one, with some adapters (small jack to big)... But to really take advantage of the virus, you should get two things that can come togheter: an audio interface, so you can connect at least a pair of outs from the virus into two ins with dedicaded pre-amps on the soundcard, and a midi interface - so the virus can receive notes from your DAW of choice and record automation, etc. There are models that come with both of these things: audio interface and midi connections in one, so you should maybe look into one of those, I guess... Sound quality will be better, latency shorter, connection granted... But, it's another investment... With what you have and some cables from viru's outs to the input of your soundcard, you can still record the sound from the virus into some Daw, but only real time playing, as it won't be reading notes from the computer... And no LFO synced to tempo song, etc... So yeah, get one of those soundcards with midi interface, take your time and enjoy the learning curve man! Have fun! Hope this helps
