Best Audio Interfaces (Sound Cards)

Sound quality, latency, and sound balance of audio interface (sound card) are the main factors to do a quality recording and to produce a high-quality mixing. Due to that, we need to choose it very carefully according to our requirements and budget. In this article, I divided audio interfaces into two categories which are budgetpremium and, Amazon recommendations. Budget audio interfaces are for beginners and home studios. Premium studio monitors are for people who can afford a big amount and for people who are working as professionals.

I did not write detailed paragraphs about audio interfaces but I listed all the key features of audio interfaces that we should consider before buy. Also, in this article, I listed some affiliate links from trusted sellers in the following tables according to the countries and regions. Audio interfaces are listed according to their sound qualities. I am a sound engineer and please note that all of these ranking and reviewing are done according to my own ten year working experiences in the music composing field. Also, there are some more good brands in today’s market that I didn’t mention in this article because I am unable to find trusted sellers. So, I will try my best to update this article every month when the arrival of competitive new products and trusted sellers.
