This really depends on your needs. For music production things are different in Windows. Due to latency, studio-level hardware vendors completely skip Microsoft's audio stack and use something that talks directly to the card called ASIO. So, you kinda need external audio hardware even if you're on-the go and wants to do some low-latency audio. Or you use hacks like Asio4all to achieve low latency. In macOS CoreAudio has low latency even if you use the built-in 3.5mm audio jack.
- breakfastduck 6y agoExactly - it really is a big advantage to have that performance natively. There’s a reason external hardware drivers are native on macOS.
