Idk whether that's true or not but some people said that this is basically a DJ interface without the Scratch logo hence the smallest possible latency would make sense. For metal/rock it'll be more than sufficient although for quiet stuff like blues or jazz you might wanna go for the scarlett tho A guitar can be tracked perfectly fine with it. Also I just tried this today and the results with a $10 behringer mic are very satisfying (sorry for the missing tail, made a mistake exporting but anyway you got the idea). I don't care, I do track drums occasionally but in dense recordings like mine some noise at -20db is not noticeable at all.
Scarlett (apparently) has better preamps.The reason why I picked it over the scarlett is because in all the comparison threads everyone basically said the same: Really like the KA 6, got no problems with any programs so far. My advice would be to just buy from Amazon (or someone else with a good returns policy) and try some out. I've read good things about the Anker USB 3.0 hubs and will try one myself when I need a new one, but the choice of hub often comes down to trial and error and sometimes a hub that works for one person with devices a, b, and c doesn't work so well for another person with devices x, y, and z. I also typically have my main interface plugged directly, but if the hub is good, even that shouldn't matter. Regarding the hub, 8've been using an old Belkin hub for years and it's always worked for music devices, powered or not. Certainly, for more I/O and/or just for a static studio setup (i.e., not mobile), mains-power can be recommended, but unless you're crazy with USB devices or have a laptop with bus power issues, there's usually no issues with using a bus-powered interface (especially one that's designed to be bus-powered and bus-powered only). Are you satisfied with the KA6?Ĭlick to expand.But what if I want an interface that doesn't need to be mains-powered? And what if I want one that generally just works well from bus power? The KA6 is one good option in my opinion.
It sounds like it is a big power draw on the USB in your setup. Its interesting because I'm considering purchasing the KA 6 myself while NI has it on sale, but was concerned about it being powered by USB only. The only issue I have is when trying to run Studio simultaneously with the LP, S4 and both F1s, then I notice some spiking, but I rarely run that combination anyway. So I've got my Launchpad, S4 and both F1s running through the hub, and my audio device and Studio into the 3.0 slots, and I haven't experienced any latency issues.
I debated on 2.0 vs 3.0 for awhile, and ultimately went with the 2.0 since I wanted to dedicate the two 3.0 slots on my PC for the most latency-critical power-hungry devices. I recently purchased a Plugable 2.0 powered 7-port USB hub for similar reasons as you, and I found these articles helpful in making my decision.
