From Our Research Team:A Handy FireWire Interface that's Easy to Use!The TC Electronic Desktop Konnekt 6 FireWire audio interface and monitor controller gives you the tools you need to concentrate on making great recordings with a minimum amount of fuss. Desktop Konnekt 6 features an intuitive layout, with a large volume knob, easy-to-read meters and convenient controls right at hand. The built-in M40 reverb plug-in gives performers a comfortable sonic monitoring environment, while the included Cubase LE audio production software lets you get started recording right away with the Desktop Konnekt 6.TC Electronic Desktop Konnekt 6 FireWire Audio Interface/Monitor Controller at a Glance:
Take control The Desktop Konnekt 6 audio interface features a selected choice of monitor control right on hand. Use the direct monitor knob to control the direct monitor level directly from the top panel of Desktop Konnekt. Together with the DIM switch and the MONO switch you have all the monitor functions you need at hand. The control panel gives you full control over your monitor mix, including the M40 Studio Reverb, and the large volume knob is always within reach With a volume control independent from the computer - between the computer and the active speakers - you can always turn down the volume, no matter what your computer does. Scenes Scene Select functionality gives you easy access to three independent scenes or "setups." The three default presets are for Microphone and guitar, two guitars/basses, and a stereo line signal. High resolution meter, reverb for monitoring The high resolution meter onboard the Desktop Konnekt 6 gives you precise information about levels. With clear level indication, you can always monitor the level of the input signal and if you're near clipping. You can also choose to use the meter for mastering purposes. For monitoring convenience, the built-in M40 reverb is available as part of your monitor mix. You can control the reverb level directly from the top panel of Desktop Konnekt, and you can set reverb parameters using the control panel on the computer. Besides being part of the monitor mix, the M40 Studio Reverb is also available as a natively running VST/AU plug-in, allowing you to use it as part of your recording session in your PC or Mac. Headphones and preamp The headphone output has its own powerful amplifier and a separate converter, which makes you able to assign separate mix signal independent from what you hear in your monitor speakers. TC is renowned for its mic preamps; they're among the finest mic preamps on the market. Desktop Konnekt comes with an IMPACT™ preamp for incredibly clear results. Premium Hi-Z instrument inputs are also onboard. TC Electronic Desktop Konnekt 6 FireWire Audio Interface/Monitor Controller Features:

by Z from
It is very very high quality audio interface with several perfect TC plugins and DSP. If you don't need many in/out and only AD/DA convertors is important it is for you! Really, don't spend more money... read more [+] for Apogee Duet 2 or RME Babyface, this interface is very clear and has excellent sound. I have RME Fireface 800 at studio too for many inputs/outputs and Konnekt 6 is perfect if you are outside your studio and want to create high quality recordings on the go.April 14, 2012 Music Background: Sound Artist, Composer.

by Christian Jansen from Singapore
I bought this used 1 year old unit from a student at US $140. He actually had it shipped into my homeland, Singapore. I used it with my New Mac MIni... the sound from its outputs sound15% better than ... read more [+]my Focusrite Pro 40.. hard to believe isn't it. August 25, 2010 Music Background: Home Hobbyist. I don't use the software reverb as i didn't use the MIC input..so it is mainly for DAW and audio playback. I had used normal CD tracks to A/B the sound difference, I don't think for its price, there is another better sounding USB or Firewire Interface..unless you can update me. My main aim was to use this unit for live gig for DAW or Audio CD playback.. the quality is top notch. Right now, i'm using it as my main home Interface while looking for a multi IN/OUt after I sold My Focusrite Pro 40..which I shouldn't have. Lots Of Laugh. close [-] A little workhorse for solo tracking
by Brian from Gainesville, FL
The converters are top-notch, the inputs are clean, and the preamp surpasses anything I'd expect in an interface at this price point. Being a 2-in/4-out interface is slightly misleading, albeit usefu... read more [+]l; two of those outputs are reserved for the option of sending a separate bus out from your DAW to the headphone output. The monitoring section is a bonus, the controls are handy, and the 12-segment meters are switchable between the inputs, DAW levels, and monitor output. Reverb dial is nice, but the verb is entirely host-powered. I'd prefer to instead have buttons on the interface to toggle 48V or set the headphone bus source, which you have to otherwise select in the software. It's smaller that you think, but more solid than it looks, so it's not gonna get knocked around your desk all day like a lot of other non-rack interfaces.March 4, 2010 Music Background: Semi-pro musician This is pretty much the interface I wanted someone to make. If you want the quality of a $500+ interface without ins and outs you don't need, this is your guy. close [-] Things to consider

I had heard horror stories about TCNear and Windows 7, sound dropouts, crackling etc. so I was hesitant to buy this at first.

I kind of expected the worst.May 25, 2011 Music Background: Student Surprisingly, I suffered no such issues. I was concerned about this being the main sound device in Windows, because my PC, like many, isn't just a DAW rig, I use it for gaming, multimedia, video and photos, music, everything. I was expecting to have to rig up some ghetto macguyver something or other to be able to do everything. Works like a charm though. Games, MPC, iTunes, Youtube, everything. Win 7 x64 treats it like any other sound card, and I get no errors whatsoever. On the DAW side of things, and let this be a warning to fellow novices: 192khz sample rate EATS CPU. I screwed up and bought an AMD 1100T before sandy bridge was unleashed, so that may have something to do with it, but 192khz eats my processor for breakfast. Setting aside the debate over noticeable quality differences between 192 and 48 or even 44.1, at my level of experience I feel that 192 is rather wasted on me. Which makes me wonder if I could have gotten something more suited for my needs without worrying about 24/192 obsessively. Having no way to foresee the audible gap between sample rates I opted 'better safe than sorry'. In hindsight it would have paid to consider the target medium for the music I'm producing. iTunes. BeatPort. CD. YouTube. 192 is certainly wasted here. But no worries, it does more than I expected, and the price to performance ratio is more than satisfactory. close [-] Solid easy to use Interface!

I used a Shure SM 58 for the vocals and also ran a TC Electronic Voice Live 2 through it. Fantastic sound, harmonies etc. Great product from a first rate company.
