    The Arturia Mini Keys is a MIDI controller and it'll connect to a USB port rather than an audio interface. It won't produce any sound unless it's used to control a software synth. The TB303 will run into one of the inputs of the A6 as they only have a mono output. So yes, an Audio 6 will work and give you future expansion as well as mic preamps. Two of the ins and outs are on S/PDIF so only work with digital gear that has co-axial digital ins/outs rather than TOSLINK.

    Correct me if I am wrong , but if your Arturia is the "Arturia - MiniLab MkII - Portable MIDI Controller for Music Production" , does that not connect only by USB ? If so then how would connect that to anything but a computer ?

    You can see all the Komplete Audio 6 inputs/outputs here : https://www.native-instruments.com/en/komplete-audio-6-quickstart/

    The KA6 says that it can be used with Maschine so apparently no problem with that though I don't know the difference between Machine and Maschine Studio ! : https://www.native-instruments.com/en/komplete-audio-6-quickstart/setting-up-maschine/

    KA6 also can be used with microphones including those requiring Phantom Power !

    P.S. I have been unable to find a manual for the present version Komplete Audio 6 anywhere but I have found one for an older version of KA6. Please understand that I take no responsibility for any discrepancies , differences or errors in the manual I attach versus the present KA6 version. Also I do not work for N.I. and my opinions are my own !

    This manual download is NOT N.I. supplied by N.I. it is my own personal download from a third-party internet site !

    Thanks guys, basically I just want all my gear to be accessible without having to unplug something every time I use it? And yes you are correct it’s a usb port so will that connect straight to my computer? Problem is I only have two usb ports and one is for Maschine studio ( basically mk2) so I need to plug in some kind of audio interface for headphones etc . I might take a visit to my local dj superstore see what they suggest. Thanks for all your help . Cheers

    I'd go for a decent powered hub for your Maschine and the keyboard, something like a D-Link. I've got a couple of these and they're rock solid - DUB-H7 7-Port USB 2.0 Hub | D-Link UK (dlink.com) You can plug the audio interface directly into the PC or into the hub, either should work.

    EDIT: You could also use a Novation Audiohub - these are a 2 line-in, 4 out interface with a built in 3-port USB hub, headphone socket. They're discontinued now, but you can still find them. They still work perfectly on Windows 11 with decent ASIO drivers, and MacOS Sonoma. There's no mic preamp, but for the line level from the TB303 they're ok. I use one with my laptop occasionally.
