The direct signal is blended with the DAW signal using the Input/ Host mix knob, but unhelpfully, it only appears at the headphone output, not the main outs. Direct monitoring is supported by both interfaces, so you can hear yourself sing and/or play directly through the hardware with no latency (or plugin effects, of course), before the signal reaches the computer.

Latencies are in line with USB 2.0 expectations, from 7.55ms round trip at 44.1kHz with a 32-sample buffer, to 51.8ms at 1024 samples. Capture two mics, or bass and guitar, or the left and right outs of a synth, etc. The Komplete Audio 2 ramps up the versatility considerably, with two combi XLR/ jack inputs, both phantom powered and independently switchable between instrument and line levels. Last but not least, you also get two months of access and £22 to spend in the NI Online Shop. Komplete Start comprises 15 Kontakt Player and Reaktor Player instruments, as well as the Supercharger compressor and Guitar Rig 5 Player effects plugins.

With the Komplete Audio 1, the latter are on RCA phonos - appropriate for DJ mixers and domestic/low-end systems - while the Komplete Audio 2 puts them on 1/4' jacks, for serving professional studio monitors and the like. The same but differentĮach Komplete Audio interface has a single stereo headphones output and two main outs. In summary, both Komplete Audios look fab, and feel reassuringly solid yet conveniently light. They both weigh just 360g, and measure 140mm wide and 52mm high, but the Komplete Audio 1 is the slightly deeper of the two at 117.5mm versus 112mm. Made entirely of black plastic, they’re aesthetically styled to sit alongside NI’s latest Maschine and Komplete Kontrol hardware, with the reflective halves of their top panels housing LEDs for two input ladder meters, USB connection and 48V phantom power, and the matt halves playing host to big output volume knobs.

However, if you have an audio interface, you can use a digital audio workstation software as a mixer instead.The Komplete Audio 1 and Komplete Audio 2 are both 2-in/4-out bus-powered USB 2.0 boxes, differing only in the nature of those ins and outs. Several mixer models also let you control your audio through equalizers, filtering, panning, and more. On the other hand, a mixer's primary purpose is to combine audio signals. Q: What's the Difference Between an Audio Interface and a Mixer?Īudio interfaces primarily convert signals from digital to analog and vice versa.

It's also crucial for converting the analog output of different instruments to digital signals, so your computer can understand and record it.

Q: Do Audio Interfaces Improve Sound Quality?Īs most microphones only produce low voltage levels, the built-in preamps in an audio interface are required so that its output becomes usable for recording. Most interfaces also have outputs, so you can listen to your creation, whether via a recording or in real-time. This function allows you to record and process audio on your computer. An audio interface is a device that converts your mic's or instrument's analog signals into digital signals and vice versa.
