Native Instruments Komplete Audio 2 Two-Channel Audio Interface (26148)

I actually bought this audio interface to listen to Apple Music off my iPhone using a balanced power amplifier. These will work with iOS, but you may need to use a powered USB hub to supply extra power to the audio interface. Audio quality is excellent and it shines with anything Apple Music provides in Hi-Res Lossless.

I have yet to fully take advantage of all of the software that comes courtesy of Native instruments, but what I can say so far is I am extremely happy with this interface. I have a dual keyboard rig with a mixer. The lower board is my controller for my cubase daw. However, my pc suddenly got noise in the usb hub internally. I now route the mixer into the komplete and connect the komplete to the computer. Even better I still have my keyboard connected to the computer. The native instruments pieces show up in cubase as vst and are controlled by my keyboard. One caveat is that the komplete doesn't allow direct monitoring of it's outputs so I set up ableton live (also came with the komplete) with a profile that allows me to monitor the outs. To avoid the above I suggest using the komplete 6, which does have monitoring on the outputs. My setup allows me access to a fully functional daw, great audio out for my computer, and the ability to use headphones when not using external speakers. Plus I got a full suite of music production software. A huge bonus. I'm extremely please with this product.

I bought this audio interface to connect an XLR cardioid condenser microphone to my pc. It was between this and the popular Focusrite Scarlett 2i2. I chose this as it has a separate knob control for monitor (input/host) where you can adjust the level of how much pc audio you hear vs how much of your own monitor you hear. While it does work fine, depending on your headphones ohm rating, you may need further amplification to hear both loud enough. This unit has worked flawlessly, glad I chose it over the Focusrite that many people in reddit seem to have issues with. I don't use any of the software it came with and I haven't connected monitors to it yet.

I like the look , feel, and sound quality ...the best is for last!! It comes with some awesome software that is worth more than what the gizmo costs.

I've been using this product for about a year now after replacing my internal PCI card from M-Audio, the Delta, finally went kaput after about 15 years of use. I'll start with the positives as I honestly don't have too much to complain about considering how little this costs. Pros: The main volume knob is big and works great. Real time monitoring of the input levels are great. The outputs to main studio monitors produce more than enough sound. I rarely have to dial it up more than half way. Most of the time I'm mixing with the volume just a quarter of the way up. Latency is pretty good as well. I can get about 2.5 ms with ASIO drivers on a windows 10 machine on a Ryzen 5 processor. This next pro may depend on when and where you purchase it, but mine came with a suite of plugins from Native Instruments that just are some of the best sounding stuff you'll ever use. I still use the compressors and synth plugins it came with to this day. Now I had a promotional thing on top of that with Guitar Rig 5 Pro for mine, but I stopped using that over time in favor of other amp and cab plugins I own. None the less still a great deal. Cons: Lately it has been stopping in the middle of usage. I've moved it to another USB port on my computer and it hasn't been doing it as much lately. Not sure if that's my computer or if it's the unit itself. The front headphone jack has developed noises, pops, and hisses over time. The good thing is that appears to only be affecting listening on headphones and not the recording itself, and this doesn't occur thru my monitors. So at the end of the day it is an annoyance and nothing more. Speaking of headphones the output is extremely low. I have the volume cranked and it still is not the optimal volume I would like at times. All in all for about $100-$140 depending on if you get it on sale or not this is a solid device. I still recommend it despite it developing a few issues over the course of the year I've owned and used it. It still ultimately does what it needs to and that is record solid signals at low latency.

This interface works well thus far for playback. I have yet to try recording vocals or guitar or anything else, but I thought I’d leave a good review because it’s sound when used with fl studio is very good. I don’t really find the bundled software to be particularly useful; it’s hard to tell what software came with the interface because I already had the software that came with Maschine Mikro mk 2. Overall it seems to work well and I look forward to recording some vocals with it. If I bought it again though, I’d save up and buy the “6” version, just because the “2” is a bit small, both literally in size and also with inputs, for my use, but I’m happy with it overall.

Worked great until it didn't. First it started introducing this loud buzz, just in the left channel. Didn’t matter what cable or source. But any time you plug anything into the left channel... noise. Not the right. Right channel worked just fine - no noise, even when I swapped the cables - so I know it was internal to the interface. A few hours after that it just doesn’t work at all. No input, no output of any kind. I've tried all driver updates, restarts, everything. It's just totally dead now. Very disappointing. Huge waste of time and waste of money.

I use these for testing sound systems. The one works great and has low distortion. The round trip distortion comes in at about 0.005%, an SNR of 86 dB. Not bad for this price.

Je l'utilise sans monitoring, juste avec la prise casque pour remplacer Xonar U5, qui claque chaque année

ürünü nasıl olduysa 1650 liraya aldım o zaman da piyasası 2500-3000 idi şimdi de öyle. üründen şüphe ettim açıkçası fakat elime ulaştığında tüm jelatinleri üzerindeydi ve kutuyu ilk açan bendim yazılım paketi de gayet güzel seri numarası da orijinal olduğunu doğruluyor şaşkınım gayet de memnunum

Awesome device...

実況動画、生放送用に購入しました。 KOMPLETE AUDIO 2に決めた理由としては、NATIVE INSTRUMENTSさんの別の製品を愛用していて 信頼できる会社であることと、あまりにもこれだけの性能としては破格であったことが決め手です。 マイクはaudio-technicaのAT2020を購入しました。 購入目的としては、ノイズの除去と音量調整機能ができればいいなと思ってました。 届いてから最初はどう接続すれば戸惑いましたが、いたってシンプルな作りで、 USBでPCとつなぐ+マイクを指す だけで使えました。 使用してみると、今までのUSBマイクとは違い 音量を上げてもノイズが発生せず、クリアな音で配信ができ、とても満足しています。 Youtubeを始めたいけど、どれを買えばいいかわからないという方は、この商品であれば間違いないと思います。

This is an upgrade from KA1 I bought a while ago since KA2 was out of stock. Decent units except KA1 has a lot of annoying hum on speakers, since it has unbalanced outputs. Only thing with new KA2 is that the product registration code was already registered to someone else. Took 3 days to solve it with Native Instruments and they describe my KA2 as second-hand item. Came in the brand new box, never opened before though. Amazon gave me 30% discount after the fact, which I really appreciate.
