Introduction
Whether you’re at home or on the go, you may record vocals and instruments using the Blucoil Portable USB Audio Interface. It boasts 48 kHz digital resolution and captures incredibly clean sounds. For the greatest quality from your microphones, Blucoil uses low-noise preamps. The audio that was recorded accurately captures how you meant your performance to sound. You may do interviews with just your laptop, microphone, and the Blucoil USB Interface. It has a small 3.94″ x 6.69″ x 1.73″ footprint, making it ideal for travelling artists and podcasters. The Blucoil Audio Interface lets you adjust your audio in real time while podcasting. It has Clip and Signal indicators that let you know whether to reduce the output volume or the mic/instrument gain. By doing this, distortion won’t muddle your recording.
The little USB interface has 1/4″ instrument/line inputs and an XLR-1/4″ combo input. You may connect with a laptop and record while travelling with USB bus power. To record or stream a podcast, you don’t even need access to a wall outlet. You may closely monitor the mic signal and adjust the levels to prevent distortion or squeals in the recording using the 1/4″ stereo headphone connector, which offers zero-latency monitoring. The interface also provides two 1/4″ TRS main outputs for connecting studio monitors.

Is a USB audio interface good?
A great-sounding USB-C audio interface that offers twice as many inputs and outputs than the Audient.
What is a USB audio interface used for?
Audio interfaces transform instrument and microphone signals into a format that your computer and software can understand. The interface also sends audio from your PC to studio monitors and headphones.
Do you really need audio interface?
Yes, even if you only create beats or electronic music, you still need an audio interface. The audio quality required for professional music production is the major factor. Most sound cards included with laptops and desktop computers don’t have this feature.
Will an audio interface make my music sound better?
Only when monitored, audio interfaces actually increase sound quality. Your studio monitors or headphones will receive a greater signal if you increase the gain on the audio interface’s output signal. Although an audio interface increases the input signal, the sound quality is unaffected.
Does an audio interface replace a sound card?
Yes, an audio interface can replace the sound card because when you connect it to your computer or laptop; you basically ignore the inbuilt soundcard. The interface processes the audio instead of the computer using the soundcard and its drivers to do so.
Do I need an audio interface if I have a mixer?
In general, an audio interface and a mixer are not required in order to record audio. Although a hybrid approach is possible, an audio interface that transforms analogue audio to digital is always required. As they say, that is just the tip of the iceberg.
