Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (3 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Cute but Powerful"
Sound: Seems like the drivers and chips are pretty solid, so the sound is great. Feature: Nice volume knob on top! I've been using this thing as my main sound card and it sounds pretty nice. I just wish they had more specifications in terms of processing power required. I'm using a 2007 Macbook with 2.16 intel core 2 duo with 2.5 GB RAM, which I thought would be plenty of power, but I get lapses. I imagine these issues would be resolved with either a clean install or a better performing system. There's a good amount of I/O, but be aware that if you want to use this for live applications and intend on sending a stereo signal, then you must use 2 inputs/per instrument you hook up. The small size is also an added bonus. Ease of Use: Very easy to use. Throw disc in, wait for driver's to install, plug in the interface. Quality: As others have said, this things is built very solid. Value: Well worth the purchase. I always love NI's stuff. Manufacturer Support: Can't rate, but I've heard some bad things about NI support, hope I never have to find out! The Wow Factor: The indicator LED's are very pretty in addition to the small size (as mentioned above). Overall: I see this interface lasting me for at least the next 4 years if not longer, with a nice system, I can see this thing being realllly good.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Great Card, but..."
Sound: I previously had the Audio Kontrol 1 and loved the sound. I needed more inputs and bought the KA6 I think the sound is slightly better on this unit. Nice conversion and decent pre's. Feature: I love the big volume knob on top. I don't like the fact that unlike the Audio Kontrol 1 the AK6 doesn't have a separate volume control for outputs 3-4. I have a small mixer to handle this but a missed feature non the less. Nice NI software package included as well as Cubase 5 LE. ADAT would be nice. Ease of Use: Very easy to setup. I didn't bother with the drivers disk I downloaded the drivers from NI's site. I use Win 7x64 and Cubase 5. No clicks, pops, and low latency. Not as low as my Echo Gina 3G but nothing that affected performance. Quality: Built like a tank. Small and compact but very solid but... Here's where I had a problem. I ordered this with a CAD M179 Microphone. The CAD seems to draw a little more current than the average LDC. It didn't work with the KA6. Works on my other interface. Bummer. Manufacturer Support: As mentioned above I had a problem with a CAD M179 Mic. Native Instruments Support is not very good. I submitted an online request. I'm still waiting for an answer. I finally got someone on the phone. Their phone support is only from 11am-5pm PST. I live in PST and have a regular 8-5 job so it's hard to call during those hours. When I explained the problem, they quickly offered to have me send the unit back to them for repair/replacement. This leads me think there is a known issue here. The Wow Factor: As mentioned above, built like a tank. Overall: Overall I like the product. I did return it due the preamp issue. Since it doesn't work with the mic I chose I'll have to get something else. Otherwise this would work for me.
