NI's New Audio Interface/Controller - caters to all

Post by D DAS » Tue Aug 22, 2006 6:50 am

looks pretty sick, finally something to replace the firewireaudiophile with. says it caters most to DJ's but is great for production and guitarist as well. sweet.

M-audio starts making final scratch-ish software.
And NI starts making audio hardware.

These germans sure know how to be competitive :lol:

the only reason i have not yet got an intel mac.

by the end of this year they are supposed to have it all universal,,,,,,or so i heard over at NI's site. they have to do it soon, but it is not like they only have one product to update, they have a shit load of programs and all of their stuff is innertwined and connected. can't wait though.

the controller still looks nice

I'll care about this as soon as they fix Kore. Don't get me wrong, I love Kore... I just wish it did what NI claimed it would.

looks fine, but why the hell do they go USB in that pricerange?
it really doesn't cut it for audio interfaces.
and yupp still no UBs, i used to really like NI, but they getting pretty sloppy.

just my 2cents

NI goes deep with their authenticity.
Even their customer support matches that of lets say Roland... :lol:

Kore is going to be another MC-909.
Good on paper, but the lack of finish in the details makes it crap.

Isn't it like 4 in 4 out? Usb2 can handle that quite easily. Now, whether or not it's been designed well enough - that's a different story.

This makes me sick. Nothing ported to universal binary, and they are releasing some useless audio interface which gets labels like "innovative" and "revolutionary" as always, which it isn't.

Sorry for the negativity. I like my komplete package, but N.I. are just so full of shit sometimes.

It's amazing that have been producing this unit with full knowledge that Apple would have upgraded its systems to Intel three months before the bloody thing is to be released!

how doesn't it do what they said?
It was as if someone shook up a 6 foot can of blood soda and suddenly popped the top.
