The slick and easy-to-use Komplete Audio 6 audio interface from Native Instruments lets music producers record up to 6 channels of high quality audio into their PCs and Macs. 4 analogue inputs and 2 digital inputs mean you can plug in two mics straight away, and also plug in a digital media player, decks or a mixer into the Komplete Audio 6 to make use of its low-latency input and output capabilities.
High quality circuitry in the onboard preamps and A/D conversion stage enable you to record pristine audio up to 24 bit / 96kHz.
