This right here. A distortion pedal for a guitar works by trying to overdrive the preamp of a guitar amp (some have internal distortion as well, but the majority of the "sound" of a distortion pedal is by driving the amp)
Because of this, plugging the output of one directly into your audio interface or mixer can really sound like ass. Look into getting a DI box and a cheap "amp" pedal. Joyo makes a series of pedals that emulate classic guitar amps that not only make great distortion sounds on their own, they are supposed to work really well as front ends for guitar recording. Basically you can run the output of one of these directly into your audio interface/mixer and it sounds pretty good plus you can run other guitar effects into these and they sound very very close to the sound into a guitar amp.
Here is the Joyo "British" pedal which emulates a classic Marshall amp https://www.amazon.com/JF-16-British-Effects-Brit-Rock-Simulator/dp/B005M0KLGQ/ (think classic rock from Hendrix to Van Halen plus a bunch of modern guys too), if you aren't a guitar guy you might also check out their "Americana" which emulates a fender amp which is famous in the guitar world for being "clean" sounding on its own. Joyo has a bunch of pedals, the amp ones are laid out like this with the 6 knobs and run about $40. Joyo also makes a ton of good quality "clones" of popular classic and boutique pedals.
If you are looking to make your own distortion pedals, try tagboardeffects https://tagboardeffects.blogspot.com/ for schematics. In addition to distortion/fuzz/overdrive, I'd recommend building a pt2399 based delay. They sound great, are based on a cheap $0.25 IC chip and are super simple circuits. Its the delay in the Dredbox Erebus and the Korg Monotron Delay (well, those 2 use pt2399 based delays, the schematics aren't going to be exact)
I agree with the "amp in a box" suggestion. But since Catalinbread pedals are still like ~100$ used you might have a look at one of the Joyo ones like this.
