Experience with Komplete Audio 6

Ulli

Hello,

I'm interested in buying a Komplete Audio 6 from Native Instruments.

I am currently using a Zen Book from Asus, Win 22H2, Traktor Pro 3 and Z1.

I hope to be able to connect a microphone and headphones. I'm also hoping for improved sound quality from my Z1.

I would be happy if you could help me with your experiences

can help me. What are the pros and cons of a Komplete Audio 6?

Thank you in advance!

Bought a KA6 Mk 2 in 2020. Rapidly discovered that it would start to distort audio after it had been running for more than half an hour or so under Windows 10. Support couldn't identify the problem and we tried everything under the sun to try and identify what was causing it. By the end of 2021 I'd given up on it and bought a MOTU M4 instead, which I'm still using (and very pleased with it).

Not recommended. Bought Komplete 6 in 2018, three years later it started to malfunction on boot. Until now I have to manually reconnect the usb cable to get it running. No support from NI throughout the years. Never gonna buy that NI ****** again.

I am currently getting the same problem with mine.

I opened a support ticket last year, they replaced my KA6 MK2 but I am still getting the same problem with the new one.

To recover, I have to unplug and replug the USB cable, which is annoying when you're playing in a band and it happens in the middle of of piece
