thunderbolt is way much more expensive than usb2. So sometimes the extra huge price you see its a mix of these extra options and also the connecting type.
seems companies are stepping it up on this realm like the new steingberg and rupert neve interace, beringer midas pres and rme promoting theirs. then, there is the issue of on board mic pres. for example, UAD is a dsp audio interface and will let you record with effects w/o (much) latency. The other things is that some of these interfaces come with some cool bells and whilstes. they have copied each others competitng prodcuts to make sure the converter quality is decent and barley noticeable against other interfaces.
Mostly because for price these audio interfaces inside other prodcuts needs to be economical.Īs for audio interfaces themselves, these have been mostly standarized. Now i would say the same applies to some gear that does one thing but also is an audio interface.Ī synth that wants to be an audio interface, a guitar modeler with a audio mix input and converters so its also a audio interface etc. older cats still bear the scars of those days. and why i think some o fthe longer discussions stillhappen nowadays. There used to be a time when the difference between audio interfaces was very noticeable.
So: speakers first, then solve room problems. Rather than having that argument all over, I'll suggest that you figure out ways to deal with problems you hear in your room, instead of just sticking stuff up because someone tells you it's categorically necessary to "treat" your room.Īre you recording live audio? If so, mics and mic preamps are a separate discussion. Most people will feed you a bunch of nonsense about acoustics, giving you links to videos of wankers who spread the same BS. You'll also want to set up your room so it's workable - both for sound and ergonomics. I'd start with a good pair of speakers before thinking about upgrading audio interfaces. To sound right, speakers need a good amp that's well matched to them, but these days those are usually internal (they're called powered monitors). The biggest difference in sound quality is with tranducers: speakers and mics. Better audio interfaces absolutely do sound better, but the differences aren't nearly as great as the ones between speakers and mics. It will make a good addition to your gear inventory and will last you a while.To the original question: you'll hear a difference with a better audio interface if you have the system to reveal the difference. This NI Komplete Audio 6 interface delivers what it promises. Maybe NI could have a power on/off button to make it easier to disconnect from the computer, but that’s more wishful thinking than anything. We tried really hard to find a downside, but it was difficult finding any faults – particularly at this price point. And last but not least, you get a USD 30 e-voucher that can be redeemed at NI’s online shop.

Owing to its compact and sturdy build, this interface can be a part of live rig as well. Whether it’s a high-quality 4-channel multitrack live recording, or MIDI-syncing your live drum machines and synthesizers with your DAW, Komplete Audio 6 can do it all. This interface offers a great deal of versatility. The top panel consists of a large master volume knob with 15 status LEDs that act as colour-coded level meters and clip indicators. The back panel consists of 2 TRS input jacks, 4 TRS output jacks including the mains, a 48V phantom power switch for condenser microphones, S/PDIF input and output for 2 channel digital routing, and a pair of 5-pin MIDI input and output jacks to route/sync MIDI instruments and devices. The front panel houses 2 switchable XLR/TRS combo input jacks for routing microphones or live analog instruments, low-latency direct monitoring (mono/stereo) controls and a headphone output jack. In my humble opinion, the matt silver outer shell coupled with the glossy black top panel scores a perfect 10 on the slick meter. It’s very rare to find a budget interface that offers amazing features and looks awesome at the same time.
