All user reviews for the TC Electronic Konnekt 24D

At the time, I bought it for the firewire, versatility, MIDI, ADAT I / O and S / PDIF, 2 headphone jacks ... ..
And quality preamps.

I record analog synths, vocal mics (AKG 414 etc ...) my piano and sometimes guitar and bass ... On Macbook pro (2012) and iMac (2008) by location.
I said that my shots are used frequently in pro productions, mixed posteriori Studio Pro.

UTILIZATION

I never had a problem of stability, with no computer (I have used several with the same card.

I've never met limits tracks (I recorded to the maximum possible on this card with external ADAT preamp etc ...)

Latency is very low with a recent computer.
I mainly use Logic 9

GETTING STARTED

Children installation, clear interface nothing to say ....

OVERALL OPINION

I used for almost 7 years with happiness and fun!

Most managed by the internal DSP are excellent, they are also useful in monitoring the socket (you sing with a small compressor and a super reverb in the headphones without latency) that plug in to the mix.

In a word, this card combines all the good ideas from all others in its class.
The two headphone outputs, one who mute the speakers, inputs 1 and 2 lined rear selectable by a simple switch, 3 scene memories for use in stand alone ....

I am a professional musician and I regularly use a lot of other cards in lots of circumstances. I certify that if there is a difference in sound with RME, it is almost inaudible. However, it is much more flexible to use and much more clever!

I just bought the Studio Konnekt 48 more inputs for remote control car at the price it is sold now it's just a killer !!! Provided I keep my old 24D for mobile situations or config "B".

Finally, I acknowledge the long period of TC electronic bashing to be partly responsible for the abandonment of the area by this brand .... This is unfortunate ...

Used for taking voice, composition noon and mix.

All connectors needed to do everything!

Preamps very decent compared to others in this range.

Outside of the compressor (Excellent) I do not use the plug before tc which I do not ecstatic malgrès the general opinion.

UTILIZATION

Pretty simple and practical, including stand alone.
Some cracking in minimum latency windows but mac PrtSc.
Big community to address potential concerns.

GETTING STARTED

No worries, I highly recommend.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 4 years now, I have now changed to a m-audio ProjectMix but I kept konnekt as preamps so it is better than the m-audio.

I think for the price to keep long, at worst converter a / d when I would have a beefier preamps.

Quality unbeatable price!

The Konnekt 24D is a full featured interface that has powerful but quiet pre amps. It has firewire connectivity and two high quality mic inputs that can be switched on the go to hi-Z instruments like guitars. It comes with Cubase LE which is a great value for an interface of this quality. You can use it as a stand alone interface as well and it won’t need to be hooked up to a DAW if you do not want it to be but it does get its power from the connection to a computer. The effects are in real time (DSP).

UTILIZATION

This interface was not the easiest to set up, but it didn’t take long. I used it for about 6 months back in 2009 and still own it but do not use it any more. The plug ings that come with it are very good and they add great value to this interface. I was using this interface for a portable set up of mine.

GETTING STARTED

The preamps are very good, they are clean and they also have a lot of headroom. To be in this price range you probably will not find something much better. There are 3 input gain lights on it and 3 knobs. The interface seemed to be built pretty well and could handle the tough life on the road. Out of all of the times that I used it, I never saw any physical wear and tear on it and it never had any issues as far as not working properly and I was using it almost every day in a different place.

OVERALL OPINION

This interface was not made to give a great sound quality because for the price you could not expect that. The quality was decent, and worked well for me to get some ideas down while I was out and about. I really enjoyed working with it, it is a shame that they are not making it anymore.

OVERALL OPINION

I used for 3 months


j I try to avid fast track c is worse! the rms in a friend I have not seen the difference? buddy as I no longer have to invite he was surprised by the sound quality of the device compared to what he has read but its good c was with the old drivers!

I did not use it to its maximum, what I say enough for me and that it can bring happiness to a lot of people, for € 200 is hard to beat.

I do it again without hesitation NIOHC this project even heavier style orchestra etc. .. for that you can pair up to 4 therefore enough to enter and exit.


I'll add this map view comments demmarer very badly because of crappy driver, but the new driver excellent and nickel hardware part!

What motivated my choice:
To say that I have reflchi before ordering.
But what has prevailed is the reputable TC, the mixed reviews about the pramp the ultralite (its competitor), the limited I / O analog compensated by the pr SNCE of adat and the two effect busses internally.

My config is based around a MacBookPro CD2.
Connects with firewire so it reoit signals from microphones, synth but for now this is not what I exploit the most (except for some testing with static and dynamic microphones), essantiellement working with plugs and vsti. no power supply ncessaire, as the TC port powered firewire mac.
Portable use of attention because the battery while mac is seeking trs.
trs good price in relation to the CHARACTERISTICS.

UTILIZATION

The plant has many pos sr no problem.
No incompatibility with the Apple hardware, if not prsence one firewire port on the mac, then the obligation to the string dd the outer rear of the train konnekt24 .. it accepts without complaint. I am considering ending for using the firewire 800 port for the mac hd.
Some crash due nanmoins management by firewire mac. nothing very mchant, at least nothing do with konnekt24.
I also take the trick, so far using a sound card in PCI format, strong as an ox and Tournat no ppin Deou of luster (Echo Layla24, which offers firewire did not convince me by the way).

The manual is clear. He does Necessary for apprhender routing gr by trs TCNear good driver (in universal binary version 1.2beta). The configuration is gnrale facileet the control panel before Konnekt is ergonomically trs.
The Konnekt is more attached to macbookpro in alluvial So, what does gche nothing.

GETTING STARTED

The stability of drivers is to go, and they are put rulirement days. The team is interested in TC this card is like a bte say, but we feel we have not done to take advantage of advances in this map (see the forum for more d Details about the functionality dernires add).
Logic Express under no problemo, latency faiblissime around what I had in pci.
Not tested on large multitrack projects, but I is not afraid to be limited.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought it in December 2006, APRS have pretty pist.
Prt buy it, the pro-review on the site HarmonyCentral convinced me in my right choice. Once we install IMMEDIATE t buddy.
The quality of primary pramp silent for me, I'm not at all deu t, even surprised!
Let me be clear, in terms of audio quality is perfect, really nothing wrong the it!
The two internal effects are more than just more.
monitor section offers exceptional comfort in the workplace.
And the possibility of ajouet numrique in I / O supplmentaires comfort me.
In stand alone mode, the Konnekt makes me smile, it's childish and very practical and works perfectly.
So good, so, I would do this gal budget choices, and even if I still think the RME multiface400 I start couraging in terms of quality audionumrique, they are the eye.

Opinion of 10/02/2007. see changes in the conclusion of 27/02/2007
The reputable TC motivated my choice. I bcp galr Hoontech media with 7.1, I would certainly not fall into this scnario. So I spar the Hoontech and I deleted the mixer. I no longer use the card. I'm all alone so musicoter 2 analog inputs are enough for me. I use channels 3 and 4 (the other two analog I / O) to insert an effect with my old analog racks, a MicroVerb III, behringer compressor and a compressor DBX possdent that no E / S numriques. I connect an SPDIF Fantom XR. Your exact more than adequate, I am satisfied with TRS. I use a laptop with an Intel T5500 and 2 gigs of memory.

UTILIZATION

The installation: less than ten minutes (dballage card included) and it works the first coup.Le manual (I read it once every install!) Is provided in PDF. The filling can monitor prs what you want to request an opening of the manual to learn a possibly subtilis. In fact I find impractical and cell in the heat of the moment we do not know where we are too! better use their favorite software to select what one wants to hear.

GETTING STARTED

I had no crash with the original driver, I'm changing usual! Super. The update driver / firmware allows the use of effects (reverb and compressor) as a VST plug'in. But the plant ca! But these are beta versions. With Cubase, when we want to tweak the means SETTING THE reverb or compressor the squenceur s'arrte! Can not rgler ear ral time! may be a conflict with the dongle / WIFI and the trick fantom XR (all this is connected to the USB ports) + frquents crashes. With Sonar crashes rguliers galements. The update adds a chromatic tuner that did not sduit in its operation. So I went back to the drivers and firmware base. The all goes bien.J 'also have a desire to warm boot. Should we turn on the ds card as soon as dlais APRS launch windows if you do not want to restart the whole Systm! There's just leave the card all the time like that Allum more worries! Power over firewire (6br) trs works well.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 months. the case of scrap, siouplait gives confidence ... I found the pramplis, the sound quality and the effects of trs good bills. Ergonomics t think well, is simple to use.
For just over 500E, was something that PSE heavy bump that well and the look. No more crunches! Ahhh finally ...

Added 27/02/2007: rsolus problem! Cubase and the map are not to blame, poor configuration of the computer's ACPI silent cause of my worries. The new beta version drivers with effects plug-in works well trs.
For the rest: no change.

I use this beautiful card to record my various synths and from time to time for the "field recording".
I chose the Konnekt given its technical specifications: a DSP, a preamp of thunder, a look ... how to say ... beautiful and solid appearance.
when you take the machine in hand (the Konnekt so) we feel that it is good mail!
I use a PC (P4 3.2GHz) and PowerBook G4 867 ... and it runs smoothly, even on the pc. This is to say: o)

UTILIZATION

- Installed without any problems ... Just rub a pit on the PC that required a second start. nothing serious!
- Incompatibility .. > Flush at the moment
- The config is really great, it's clear that simple ... it's been a long time!
- The manual ..??? not bzoin

GETTING STARTED

I use it with Cubase, Reason, Live, Reaktor, and nothing wrong .. it runs without cracking or gene of this kind!
I did not really push to assess the stability of the config (less than 10 tracks)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for one month ...
I personally do not see a default ... I previously had an m-box and a presonus firebox (kept 2 months). This is where I realize that digidesign is not really here and that's not presonus punchy sound that everyone is talking about. I rediscovered an ITS with Konnekt, fine details appear, the mix is ​​more open ... and especially the preamp and finally I hear something my microphone and without breath or bzzzzzz of its kind .... really it sounds!
For over 15 years I've been in music, having worked on many console and synth of any kind I get a quick idea of ​​the sound coming from a machine. I want to say that this interface is a real success both as noise and ergonomics (software & hardware).

Use from 1 month to essentially the tekno.
My PC config is a good 2-3 years ago, just boosted for disks (SATA RAID Stripe) ...
My config is heterogeneous: ADAT to use the sampler, analog inputs for the K5000. Changing a setup (next purchase of a G2X).
I bought this interface to replace my old system Creamware (Pulsar II).
I started to use all the connections from the second week of use, except for the SPDIF. Nickel!
Updated on 19/04/2007:
I seems there a problem with the MIDI card, which does not look very strong side Sysex. When large shipments, the card is not responding fast enough, or lose data sysex!

EDIT: Big problem with the ADAT. Let me explain: I can not use this interface in full duplex ADAT, ADAT outputs with configurable routing and therefore can not use it as a monitor and an external effect. Big disappointment because I largely config to use it also as a reverb-off.

UTILIZATION

Installation and implementation worthy of a fairy tale, but as I worked for 4 years with Creamware, I doubt that conmprendrais my objectivity on this issue!
No incompatibilities encountered, except Skype software in sessions with my musical double, Cubase and started running behind the virus (yes, I know!). This is probably due to the CPU to the card elsewhere.
Configuration to operate just took me 20 minutes to several hours to route my external hardware and its effects with my Cubase. The routing is largely fixed but leaves the possibility of working in multiple configurations, which are neither more nor less, than those we usually need (-1 qd same). One note though: MIDI is not multi-client, if you're talking about (-1).
The manual has been of considerable utility in connection with the ease of use of the card.
Updated on 19/04/2007:
The Assimilator software supplied with the card does not install at all (can not find the card while it is turned on and connected).

EDIT: Let's talk about the drivers! All they would not mind that, before delivering an updated driver, it might be useful to test it??

GETTING STARTED

The drivers are stable and changing, which is a good sign.
It seems to me that a reputation is at stake, through the advances proposed by TC. This map represents the first line of an entry for them in a market highly competitive intent where the error is commercially sanctioned, given the number of parts to be produced. The updates are quite common and offer more than just bug fixes (the beginning).
Very good stability and stability to 512 samples to 256 samples correctly.
My latency is a reflection of the sometimes extensive use of my PC with no other applications that drive my motherboard into a corner is good. Otherwise, it's firewire!
The number of tracks is determined by the number of effects in Cubase I ask (and I do use my PC, see above), more than my card itself. I am currently playing a dozen tracks (MIDI VST instrumentals and external) and a dozen audio.
Updated on 19/04/2007:
Latency problem with the version of firmware and sotfware provided to install (1.03).
Stability problem with the latest version to date (1.10), especially for the use of effects plug-in mode for the sequencer, but more latency.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this corny for a month and I am satisfied.
I like the sound first! A clear, clean, clear and unadorned (compared to the converters that I know through and my Creamware sampler). I also like the effects, which are much more than make-up effects for my taste. It's simple: they allow a self-generation entry-level pro, with the help of converters.
I have not tested anything other than Creamware and RME (and SBLive for those interested) and my ears make me think that it is much better (out of proportion for Creamware, more difficult to distinguish from RME but even qd).
The price charged up for me this card for direct comparison with Creamware the low end of the time when I used it and I say that technology's help, we can only gain in terms of sound quality! However, I would not compare this interface with its direct competitors on the market, even though I do have the right choice for my setup, and especially for my connection.
I would do this choice and I'll do it again soon by the way, since you can chain several.
Updated on 19/04/2007:
Finally, I will wait to see the next update of the driver and soft drinks before you even consider keeping it because you have to juggle a few problems that seem unworthy of such an interface.

EDIT: No, finally ... I do not have that choice and would do point me to the equivalent in terms of quality of conversion but in PCIe as much flawless, in terms of stability!

2 preamps with excellent quality, full-line input, SPDIF in / out, ADAT and noon ... Ok, nothing is missing.
PC Athlon64 3200 +, 1GB Ram.

UTILIZATION

A bit of hassle to install, had to restart 3 or 4 times to the locker after a driver update the firmware of the card, but then quiet. stable. If you have installed anything on a PC, it will run normally

GETTING STARTED

Drivers stable when calibrated properly. I use the card with Nuendo, and live. I go down to 2.7m latency (128 samples stable), but I keep the margin and remains at 5.3m (256 samples) to ensure stability. I have so far tested with 4 simultaneous tracks and it runs smoothly, so I think we can double or even more depending on its config. It's always "config-dependent" anyway, but I have no doubt that I could record a drum with 12 microphones simultaneously if necessary. Mention ultra good for preamps that are monstrous .... Big headroom and impressive clarity. This is exactly what I needed. I have a Joemeek twinQ is very clear and very large, but less "clean", with more character on the other hand, and TonePort that sounds with guitars and loads of very nice preamps but rather typed vintage, much less rights also those of the Konnekt.

OVERALL OPINION

Bon ben, it's really good interface. I leave a Delta1010 is already really good, but in line inputs (and PCI) ... No monitor section, no preamps ... And dropped after two years ... And strangely, nothing to listen to songs, we already feel the difference in clarity. The signal is incredibly clear ... CT is short: clean, ultra dynamic, well-designed.

-The price compared to the same quality of the interfaces preamp terrible!, The effects Intgr
I use it for recording models (rock, rap ...)
Celeron-2.4GHz / 1.5GB ram / pci firewire card with via chipset

UTILIZATION

As against this has to gte some

THE FIRST-after installation I had problem of dropout when playing music or other files, it was in April that there was a conflict between the Konnekt and my old modem pci (!?), once abducted more than this one problem ...

-After 2 months of use the card back to sav, phew warranty! Cause: The volume knob rpond do more, and the sound increases by itself for no reason (super. ..)

-The manual is clear enough, a little too clean my taste but hey I'm quibbling

GETTING STARTED

-No problem with the drivers, 7ms in 256, but a lot of people seem to have problem with them, go take a look at harmony thing on the forum you will see the card as it heats A DEATH ds so he does a little hot in the pice I leave lights not more than 3-4h I do not want it melts lol
-Quite a few up days
-Used with cubase sx
I do not use in recording a track by a

OVERALL OPINION

I have used it for 2 months and I must admit that this card is really INTERESTED many levels, its definitely good preamp, although transparent, its effects on Systm monitoring.

I would put in BMOL attention to drivers if you are running Mac, the knob fragile (at least on my card c'tait can be a default of manufacture is common), and the furnace it becomes tbr />
-Before I used a sound blaster live (w and a test mbox
Quality-price ratio well, I would not have had the highest deficits problem I would have said excellent

-With the exprience I would wait a little bit more to go kick a little Fireface, which I think Reserved fewer surprises ...

- Attracted by the quality of pramps, DSP effects, analog I / O + numriques (S-PDIF and ADAT), so scrolls.
- Use home-studio, recording again, and in the near future pr Live with midi keyboard + VSTi
- Laptop Toshiba M30X
- Numrique Piano, MIDI keyboard, guitar, microphone

UTILIZATION

- Easy installation and quick.
- For the first against the night I had a desire to cut his (Drop-outs) ... I was afraid, but in fact my laptop via the mode "ACPI" to "Standard PC", everything is back to normal. Since no more worries! ^ ^
- Configuration by simply turning the Control Panel, but also directly on the map in stand-alone mode.
- Manual paper Reduces the minimum, if not it is in PDF.

GETTING STARTED

- For drivers, I installed the latest direct ... but there's some problems in terms of DSP effects to the integration of VST, which is quite normal for a Beta version.
- They seem to be often made to date. I think that bump well on this card at TC Electronic ^ ^
- I use energyXT and Cubase LE (included)
- Where before with my M-Audio Audiophile Firewire I should be 512 for the buffer size, I can easily be 256 or 5.8 ms of latency with the Konnekt!
- I have not tried more than two tracks simultaneously at the moment, but I think there is no problem at this level.

OVERALL OPINION

- I use it for a few days.
- I especially like his pramps (ca 9.5 is just beginning to blow on the knob!! Or almost back ^ ^), DSP effects really are not widgets, they rip! The sound is very well Dfine, much better than my M-Audio.
And then you have really nice prciser it is this sound card also ...
The only BMOL is the fact that I had to find by myself how my worries rsoudre cuts of his first day on ... But the SAV looks aware of the problems some users and I think they bossent the hard top (this is the first sound card TC Electronic). But when I see all the worries Caus no external sound cards, and that regardless of the brand (MOTU, RME including ...) You can not blame them ^ ^
- Before, I had the M-Audio Audiophile is not bad for its price, but the RCA above. A friend of EMU in 1820, that's all I know.
- Quality-price report really honest I find.
- YES I would do this choice!

I am a dj for a while computer music.
I started with a RME Multiface I then sold the Fireface 800 to move in the same brand.

Result of financial worries I sold my Fireface 800 and I started looking for an audio interface more modest in terms of functionality but would not make me lose audio quality (which I m'tais used to with products RME).

The TC Electronic Konnekt 24D has t read as quickly given the lodges that can be read on this board (review of SOS, Recording, etc.. And even Audiofanzine).
In short, a quality interface with great flexibility, a DSP and a price Intgr well thought out! I therefore launched since all I was looking CHARACTERISTICS taient runies in this product ...

UTILIZATION

Installation on Windows XP is no possible problem: it installs the drivers (for my part I directly put the latest 1.2.2 rcuprs on the official website), we branch card and everything works!

Well that part does the installation is nothing wrong for my part of the ct.

GETTING STARTED

Hey, is that the things are not right!

I knew, having traveled the forum Audiofanzine that many users encountered the problem of 'drop out' audio with this card (cuts its random image).
Unfortunately I did not screed ...

I run a simple audio file player and it's a catastrophe. The sound is hach ​​Fawn compltement random image. It works without any problem 5 minutes and all of a sudden he y 'sound interruptions every 10 sec ... then works again. Sometimes a compltement crashes and Windows no longer allows me to play audio files, only a reboot of the Konnekt Remde there but only a few minutes before another crash.

I try to change the Firewire port, I make a clean Reinstalling Windows XP, try the famous mode "Standard PC" instead of ACPI that seems correct this problem for a lot more but I trouble than anything else with all the configuration changes.

APRS short one week struggle to make it stable I gave up: I sold the card and I dbrouiller to keep the RME Fireface 800, which she never hesitates and whose drivers show a dveloppement copy from RME!

OVERALL OPINION

Finally I have a deep sense of gchis with this product.

The interface is beautiful, well thought, with good pramplis, the DSP's internal quality, high-flying audio converters, etc.. Ms. price trs honnte view of its services.

But the game has all drivers gcher ... In one week I have not run russian Fawn stable yet and I'm not a computer beginners. This card could approach the perfect product if TC Electronic leaned a little more about the drivers.

I do not want gnraliser well Obviously this is my own exprience with this product (which also works perfectly for the other) but that j'espre tr s soon as the software part will be the height of the hardware, which is far from being the case at the moment! Too bad because I will have preserved otherwise happy ...

Brief concludes: trs a nice interface high quality unfortunately served by more than mdiocres drivers (for now at least). Case continued ...

I possde dj since the K24D a few months and I must say that the choice to spend an external audio interface (firewire) APRS having an RME HDSP 9632 (I always elsewhere) n 't is not without apprhention as the RME is a MODEL of quality and stability.
They are in fact many CRITERIA that made me choose the K24D compared to other cards in the same price range (see suprieur).
As Saxophonist (Alto Sax & MIDI Yamaha WX5 & WX7 (windcontroler) I needed an interface allowing me to use both in the studio and reptition scne, the TC was therefore impossible e quickly enough is a big plus compared to other cards on the one hand the quality of its sound quality converter providing what I call "Pro" and also by the possibility of using the integrated effects including the operation is assured thanks to the DSP board and are a part of trs good quality and also extremely useful when the rptitions (no need to walk an effects rack supplmentaire)
I use this card with the following PC configuration:

I prvu intgration in a flight case or a rack like this (see photos on my profile Audiofanzine)

In the studio the TC is connected K24D Quad 405 amplifier and passive monitor artisanal production.

UTILIZATION

Installing the card is no particular problem just follow the instructions given during the installation of soft gre management TCNear that the driver, the Control Panel and updating the firmware .

I tried to use the same PC and the Konnekt 24D RME HDSP 9632 but it seems that the system becomes less stable, so I removed the RME in my configuration.

After a few trial and error we find fairly easily rglages perform according to each utltisation, Note that it is possible to configure 3 DIFFERENT setup and recall all the momment even if the map n ' is connected to the PC.

The manual is rather well done and covers all rglages and functionality of the card (plus it is a version in French)

GETTING STARTED

APRs have been some problem of stability of the driver of that drop-out gnrait trsdsagrables audio, and with the support of TC Electronic, now I have more problem me and I can open windows mediaplayer simultaneously (for playing mp3) and Cubase SX without any problem. The updating of drivers and is rgulire and thanks to the onboard DSP can CT prvoir adding new features (the tuner added at a t up day)

I use this card with Cubase studio and maintenent stroke V-Stack and scne repetition.

Latency is used 5.8m (256 samples)

OVERALL OPINION

I use this card for 4 months now its versatility and sound quality make it an enjoyable particulirement card use. I will certainly add an AD / DA converter interface ADAT grace in order to increase the number of input / output.

Versatility + (connected to the PC and standalone without PC)
+ DSP => effects Intgr
+ Audio Qualit
+ Qualit effects

- I do not see

Given the quality of this report card quality prices head up in the cards in this price range to see cards suprieur a price significantly.

I reffer the same choice without hsiter

UTILIZATION

The install; book with old drivers on the CD ..., update site via TC
Installation is hassle-free by walking against impossibility to use this card without dropout, and cell-free clik on two laptops!
yes I have everything on both virtual PC (anti virus, disable periph etc ...)
At my dealer this card works well and an old pc su cel (tour )..!!
(FYI I tried and bought a nickel FireFace800 works on two PCs and cell even if I am on the net with d anti spy and antivirus running in the background ..!)

GETTING STARTED

I have nothing here could do anything whatsoever with this card on my PC anyway ....

OVERALL OPINION

Ben actually I do not understand, my dealer told me that the cell does not thunder there was the same problems with Sony Viao desport, THIS IS probably a problem of bandwidth on the PCI bus or bad implmntation of FireWire on the map that the coup is very insatble with a PC or other ..
