UPDATE - I liked the KA2 so much when I reviewed it for my YouTube channel, I ended up choosing the KA6 mkII as my go-to interface for recording all of the audio for my videos. So everything that I do on my channel from now on will be through the KA6. It's perfect for my needs. I can send a line out from my channel strip to record voice, plus a stereo pair of line outputs from whichever interface I'm reviewing. And it runs off of bus power, so no AC wall wart required! So far, so good. This has quickly become my favorite entry-level interface. (Original review below) I'm a home recording enthusiast, and I review audio interfaces on my YouTube channel, so I've used quite a few of them at this point in my life. Honestly, I went into the KA2 with a bit of a bias against it, due to the negative reviews that I've seen around the web. But this little guy actually surprised me. Preamps are solid. They have ample gain, and enough headroom (something sorely lacking in other entry-level interfaces). I was able to use condenser, dynamic, and ribbon microphones to record vocals, kick and snare drums, and hand percussion without any issues. I was able to record bass guitar direct without any problems, and it sounded pretty darned good. Driver installation was fine, and I was able to configure it without any issues. Drivers are OK. Latency is average. Just under 10ms round-trip at 128 samples. It uses the exact same ASIO control panel as the Behringer U-Phoria UMC HD series. It provided control over ASIO buffer size, but no control over sample rate, so you'll have to rely on your DAW to override the sample rate setting. The software bundle is a bit of a pain to locate and download. Basically you have to use Native Instruments' stand-alone installer/license app (Native Access) but there aren't clear indications on their website that that's how you're supposed to license your interface and download/install all of the bundled software. As far as the software bundle itself, there is a lot of content there. But you'll hit limitations as far as demo versions or not-quite-full versions of Kontakt, Maschine, and Reaktor. You can get by with what's provided due to the sheer quantity of what's included, but you'll soon bump into limitations that will require additional purchases. Still, for the price, it's a pretty impressive bundle. The shining star of the bundle to me is the Solid Bus Compressor. That thing is...uh...solid. As the name implies. I immediately took a liking to it, and upon further use, it has become one of my favorite compressors ever. And that's coming from a guy that has a pair of Distressors in his rack :) The main cons: - no 5-pin MIDI. That is surprising, considering that it's geared towards the electronic musician - headphone output is pretty weak, but not awful - the overall feel is very plastic - if I ever had a technical issue, I have no confidence that NI tech support would ever help me The main pros: - best knobs in the business. Seriously, the main output knob on the top is a buttery-smooth tactile joy to turn. Front panel knobs are the sturdiest feeling knobs on the market. - 5-segment LED signal indicators on the top. Why don't all manufacturers provide this? It's great. - solid preamps with an impressive gain range - best-in-class software bundle Overall, I'd recommend this interface if you're shopping in the entry-level 2x2 market. As far as sound quality and functionality, it holds its own against similar offerings from Focusrite, Steinberg, Behringer, and Roland. Toss in the software bundle and the lower-than-the-other-guys price point and I think that this is a very attractive option if you're looking to dabble in home recording.

I use them for professional testing equipment, with Line IN/OUT and USB to computer. More than happy with them.

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.

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.
