The need for a good audio interface depends on your specific circumstances. If you’re a podcaster, audio interface quality might not be as important because the main focus is on the speaker’s voice. However, if you’re a musician who wants to record high-quality tracks, then a good audio interface becomes essential. It can provide better preamps for your microphones, direct lines for your instruments, and can offer lower latency than many built-in computer interfaces. So, it depends on what you’re using it for and how much you value audio quality.
