Native Instruments Komplete Audio 2 Driver Instant

You find it on sale (~$99 or less) and you value build quality + NI software bundle (it includes Ableton Live Lite, Maschine Essentials, and Komplete Select). Otherwise, for the same money, the Arturia MiniFuse 2 or Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 (4th Gen) gives you a better driver feature set and equal or better audio quality. For Windows users who just need a stable ASIO driver to play MIDI keyboards and record one mic at a time, the Komplete Audio 2 works perfectly. For streamers or advanced routing, look elsewhere.

This review assumes you are comparing it against other entry-level 2-input interfaces (like the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2, Universal Audio Volt 2, or Arturia MiniFuse 2). The Komplete Audio 2 is a solid, good-sounding interface for producers who already use, or plan to use, NI’s Komplete ecosystem (Maschine, Massive, Kontakt, etc.) . Its drivers are stable and low-latency for most Windows users, but not class-leading compared to RME or even the latest generation from Focusrite/Arturia. native instruments komplete audio 2 driver
