========== Video Description ==========
In this video, I cut through the marketing hype surrounding audio interfaces to show you what’s actually worth your money. I break down the difference between overpriced gear and true value, share a full price-performance list, and give practical recommendations for home studios, commercial setups, mixing, mastering, and more. If you're overwhelmed by brands like Focusrite, Behringer, MOTU, RME, or UAD, this is for you.
Download the full comparison sheet below and stop wasting money on audio snake oil.
