No. An audio interface is not necessary to record vinyl into your computer. The
exception is if your turntable does not have a USB output AND your computer ONLY
has a USB input (many computers have an 1/8" input).
A case can be made to use an Audio Interface even if you technically don't need one.
If you want your recordings for music production, digital DJing or critical listening,
you probably want an Audio Interface to your setup to assure optimal sound quality

Please note, recording software does not automate the creation of separate tracks.
The rst method to record a track is to record one track at a time and save them
individually. The second method is to record a whole side of an album, then edit and
save them as individual tracks.
Editing audio in a recording program is easy to learn and that does not take much
time. Play around with highlighting di erent sections of your recording (represented
by the waveform). You can easily identify the beginning and ends of songs by reading
the waveform. Highlight a section and you can delete it like you would a text
document. If you prefer copying and pasting: copy, create a new le and paste into
that le. Lastly, "Export to MP3" or "Save As".
