New from Native Instruments: Audio Kontrol 1 USB 2.0 Audio Interface
Native Instruments is excited to announce AUDIO KONTROL 1, a compact high-performance USB 2.0 audio interface that addresses the typical needs of many musicians, producers and DJs in a highly portable and affordable package. Combining professional sound quality with high versatility, and equipped with a comprehensive software package, AUDIO KONTROL 1 was designed to meet a specific "sweet spot" in terms of
performance, functionality and price.
AUDIO KONTROL 1 is equipped with studio-grade 24-bit/192 kHz Cirrus
Logic converters that guarantee pristine audio quality, while Native
Instruments' third-generation USB 2.0 audio driver technology ensures
low-latency operation down to 4 milliseconds both on Windows and
Macintosh systems. With its 2-in/4-out configuration, and equipped with
microphone preamp, "Hi-Z" instrument input and headphone amp, AUDIO
KONTROL 1 is suitable for a wide range of studio, live and DJ
applications. Four freely assignable control elements on the top side of
the unit also make it possible to adjust any software parameter directly
from the interface, enabling AUDIO KONTROL 1 to double as a basic
controller device.
With its small footprint and solid aluminium enclosure, the completely
bus-powered audio interface provides a robust and highly portable
solution for many typical recording and performance situations. AUDIO
KONTROL 1 also comes with an additional creativity booster in the form
of a comprehensive software bundle. Included are XPRESS KEYBOARDS, three
software synthesizers based on the acclaimed PRO-53, B4 and FM7, as well
as GUITAR COMBOS, three professional amp emulations taken from Native
Instruments' award-winning GUITAR RIG.
AUDIO KONTROL 1 also comes with TRAKTOR 3 LE, a new DJ software based on
Native Instruments' groundbreaking TRAKTOR DJ Studio. Offering two decks
with high-quality time-stretching, an integrated mixer, performance
effects, loop and cueing functions, a powerful track database and
seamless Beatport shop integration, TRAKTOR 3 LE is a serious creative
tool, and an ideal way to enter the world of digital DJing.
AUDIO KONTROL 1 will be available in October 2006 for a suggested retail
price of $299 / 279 Euro from authorized dealers and in the NI Online
Shop.
