To expand on Bill's (rather terse, my man) statement:
There's nothing wrong with your Tascam US122. However, it's a starter kit. Don't worry about trying to "add" stuff to it to make it sound better. Get some experience recording with the two pieces you have, get comfortable with your DAW, and start saving your pennies in anticipation of a complete system upgrade - plan on stepping up to a nice MOTU 8-channel FW interface, which would be a great mid-line position from which you can start doing things like adding outboard mic pres, high-end mics, etc.
Take the baby steps, but don't throw good money away trying to "get the best" out of something that isn't capable of delivering "the best".
