Thread-topic: Audio card for mac

Hello all,

I’m replacing my ancient lab computers. Previously I used Fireface sound cards but they are not compatible with my new iMacs and my budget is somewhat limited. Does anyone have any recommendations for high quality sound cards that will work with Experiment Builder and Matlab? Will the onboard sound card be sufficient for psychoacoustic research? My computer specs are: iMac with Retina 4.5K display: Apple M4 chip with 8-core CPU and 8-core GPU, 16GB, 512GB SSD

Thanks,

Julia
