The performance of the unit is brilliant, I use it with my Blue Spark, AKG C1000s and Audix mics and all them sound awesome. You can also connect an extra set of headphones for monitoring at the back of the unit. On top of that you can toggle your monitoring output from stereo to mono.

If you want to add external effects such as reverb you'll have connect an external unit which is not so difficult. It also has direct monitoring which means you can listen to your audio with zero latency as you record.

I've experimented with this here and there and it's really good. The two XLR inputs means you can record in stereo using two condenser mics or you could record two sound sources simultaneously, for instance a guitar with one mic while singing into another mic.

I haven't used it much with the Cubase that comes in the package because I'm more comfortable with other software packages but it runs great in the other DAWs I use so this should be no problem. On my Windows 7, 4GB RAM, i5 machine I'm able to get the latency down to around 13ms with this unit which is excellent when recording.

Unlike my other audio interface (the Avid Mbox 3 Mini) I haven't had any issues using the ASIO driver with the Komplete 6 in REAPER. I use it mostly with FL Studio and REAPER, neither program has any issues detecting the unit. I got it as my first audio interface and it's what I use in my main setup at home. The top of the unit has the LEDs for all the various inputs so you can monitor clipping from a central location and it has a massive volume button. The box is polished, beautifully constructed and every control is solid none of the knobs are shaky or flimsy. You get more than what you pay for in this package because in addition to the unit itself you also get a disc with NI Komplete Elements, Cubase LE 6 and a demo of Traktor LE 2 to get you started recording and editing audio. The rear has a MIDI in port, MIDI out, SPDIF, balanced 1/4 inch input and output, a balanced 1/4 inch output for studio monitors and a button for turning the phantom power on and off. The front panel has 2 XLR/instrument inputs each with a gain control, a headphone jack, a monitoring control which has the option to switch between stereo and mono and mute button for toggling the monitor or off.

The Native Instruments Komplete Audio 6 is a USB audio interface which has a total of 6 inputs and 6 outputs.
