Verdict
Pros
Low latency and direct monitoring. Good effects. Great sound quality. Oodles of connectivity. Nice internal routing options.
Cons
Fabrik R and C not available as true DAW inserts… …And you can only use one of each. Manual could be clearer.
The bottom line
Despite its slightly limited effects, the Konnekt 24D is an audio interface of the highest calibre. TC have just made your purchasing decision that bit more difficult.
