(1) Phantom power button
(
48V
): The
phantom power button supplies 48V to condenser micro-
phones, which need this DC voltage to power their active electrical circuitry. This feature
eliminates the need for direct boxes or other additional hardware when using a condenser
microphone.
!
!
Be aware that phantom power can cause serious damage to ribbon microphones. Check
your microphone’s manual to see whether it is safe to use phantom power on it. If it isn’t,
make sure to disable phantom power on the interface before connecting: Switch the 48V
phantom power button o1n the device’s rear panel off. The 48V LED on the device’s top
panel stops lighting orange when phantom power is disabled.
(2) USB port
: The
USB
port socket connects the KOMPLETE AUDIO 6 device to your computer
laptop or workstation via USB 2.0.
(3) MIDI
: The
MIDI
input (
IN
) and output (
OUT
) sockets connect to MIDI devices such as MIDI
controllers and hardware synths or workstations.
These connections also send and receive
MIDI data to and from your computer, and can be utilized by the music software of your choice.
(4) Main outputs 1/2
: The
MAIN 1/2
outs are balanced outputs. Normally, these are coupled to
a mixer, mixing board, or active speakers via 1/4” jacks. However, you can also use RCA
(phono) cables with suitable 1/4” jack adapters.
(5) Outputs 3/4
: The
OUT
3/4
sockets are balanced outputs. They offer the option of additional
outputs when setting up 4-channel applications, such as surround sound. They also make
assigning certain instruments to certain outputs / output pairs or monitoring with a second
pair of speakers possible. These outputs have no dedicated volume control (the output is
always at 0 dB) so you will need to control the volume from within your software or the gear
they are connected to.
