Great little interface

Great value for 4 analog inputs, especially if you can find it used. 2 mic/inst on the front and 2 line on the back, plus MIDI I/O makes it a great option if you are ready to expand past a 2i2 but not ready to spend on an interface with 6 or 8 inputs. Plus it's built like a tank. Especially good if you just need 2 XLR inputs to mic something in stereo, with the option of simultaneously recording 2 more analog instruments if you want or need. If you're just going to dub everything you can stick with a 2i2 though.

Simply does the job right

I went through a couple of interfaces in a similar price range, and had incessant issues. They were on and off in being recognised by the computer, had crackling, low sound, etc. Once I got the Komplete, my issues just disappeared. I've recorded songs on here that other musos though were done with a studio soundboard (with a good mic, obviously). The number and types of inputs and outputs are useful (though must wouldn't use all of them), it doesn't overload and the volume knob on the top is handy. My only complaints is that it that the levels are hard to judge without looking at a meter and the monitoring isn't entirely intuitive.

Pulling double duty

My review of this sound card may not be fair— see, I don't just use it to produce, I also use it in my live shows, which it wasn't necessarily made to do (Native Instruments makes other sound cards for those purposes). Still, this sound card's extremely sturdy build (I have this strange theory that it could survive falling out of an airplane, though I'd prefer not to test it) and flexible input/output options have served me without fail for the last couple of years, and it's still as functional as day one.

It's certainly not the cheapest sound card on the market, certainly not for performance— but if you can afford to dedicate money to a properly powerful sound card for your productions, I heavily recommend the Traktor Komplete Audio 6.

Great piece of gear

Does what it's supposed to do. The only downside I think is that you cannot control the levels of input 3&4 (other than 1&2), which can be quite annoying because I always record 2 stereo signals through a Direct Box, a dry signal and a signal with lots of effect pedals on top of them. Channels 1&2 are always much louder than 3&4 and there's no way to even this out on the interface itself. Other than that it's a great interface!

Fantastic!

The build quality and design that Native Instruments put into the Komplete Audio 6 Intercace is really impressive. You scan tell they care about their products, as their consistency is the same throughout their products. The preamps on this little magical recording interface are fantastic for a company not known for making interfaces at all. The amount of inputs will make this interface last for me for years to come, highly reccomended.

Great interface.

A great unit. I had an issue with mine and it started throwing walls of white noise. Contacted NI in Berlin and they replaced through supplier in my country. 6 inputs, TRS / XLR combo jacks on front, MIDI connectivity and balanced and unbalanced speaker connectivity, as well as 48v phantom power for mics, this unit packs a wallop. USB powered and connected means I can take it and my laptop on the road and record whatever, whenever. Big Volume on top is cool, and the lights on top are clear, easy to read and are very intuitive, but if they were front mounted so it could slide into a shelf/ rack/ recess, I would do it in a heartbeat. Mine came with heaps of trial software, an entry level version of Cubase, and a free upgrade to Native Instruments Guitar Rig 5 pro. Every Christmas, they email you out vouchers and specials and a free gift from their range. Worth every $.

Great!

I love this audio interface. I think it's perfect for someone like me, who is just a couple years into my audio production work. However, as with all hardware & software, I do have a gripe or two. The main one is that outputs 3 & 4 are not monitored. I wanted to hook up a DJ controller to my inputs and then be able to monitor the DJ controller thought my 3/4 outputs, but that is not a possibility. I found a different way of hooking up my controller and everything works fine through Traktor, but it would have been nice to have it the way I originally wanted.

Perfect size

I can't live without my sound card. I use it for pretty much everything, recoding live instruments and vocals. I have to say its been the best investment and the sound quality is amazing. The advantage of having complete control of your entire volume from a top controller knob is essential. A must have for anyone looking for solid card. Native Instruments nailed it.

Probably the best interface I've ever used

I got this interface in early 2016 after having such a bad time with the akai eie interface. I've had no problems with this interface, it's the best one I've ever used and it does the job very well.

Great for Home Studios

Great way to lay down tracks at home, and a great interface for studio monitors. Seemless integration with S1 and Logic. 5 star.
