FAQs about FIFINE Audio Mixers & Interfaces

Learn about common FAQs about FIFINE mixers and interfaces here. Get ready for your audio production.

1. What Do I Need to Use A FIFINE Audio Interface?

To use a FIFINE audio interface, you need a computer (USB/Thunderbolt), recording software (DAW), XLR or 1/4" cables, and microphones or instruments. A pair of headphones or studio monitors is essential for monitoring audio.

For example, if you got the FIFINE XLR Ampli3 audio interface, you can pair it with the XLR microphone, like AM8 and TANK1. Also, a FIFINE H13 headset can monitor your audio.

2. Are FIFINE Audio Interfaces Only for Recording?

Absolutely no. FIFINE audio interfaces aren’t only for recording—they’re also used for live streaming, monitoring audio, podcasting, gaming, and improving sound quality for everyday use.

3. What is Better, an Audio Interface or a Mixer?

It depends on how you use audio.

🎛️ An audio interface is better if your main goal is recording or streaming on a computer. It converts microphone and instrument signals into digital audio with high fidelity, works seamlessly with DAWs and streaming software, and is usually simpler to set up. It’s ideal for podcasters, streamers, and home recording.

🎚️ A mixer is better if you need hands-on, real-time control over multiple audio sources. Mixers let you adjust levels, balance multiple mics, and sometimes add basic EQ or effects on the fly, making them well-suited for live streaming, events, or multi-person setups.

4. Can I Use FIFINE Mixer/Interface with Console Gaming (PS5, Xbox)?

PS5 is sure. It supports USB audio devices directly, so a class-compliant audio interface or USB mixer can work when plugged into a USB port, and you may be able to use a high-quality mic or headset that way.

But the FIFINE mixer or interface can't work directly on the Xbox. Third-party USB audio devices aren't compatible with Xbox. You need extra adapters or use a PC in the middle to route audio.

Notice that compatibility isn’t guaranteed for all devices and may be limited by the console’s audio support.

5. Which FIFINE Interface is Best for Beginners?

Good starter features to look for:
1️⃣ USB bus-powered (no extra power needed)
2️⃣ 1–2 inputs (easy for one mic/one instrument)
3️⃣ Direct monitoring (zero-latency listenback)
4️⃣ Wide software compatibility (Windows/macOS)

For beginners, plug-and-play audio interfaces are usually best, which feature clear gain control, direct monitoring, and solid preamps.
