- the interface for live performance

To call Konnekt Live an intriguing interface for live performers is merely scratching the surface. Whereas most audio interfaces in the live laptop performance scene are designed for recording purposes TC Electronic's interface raises the bar and offers clear-cut playback advantages to live laptop performers.

Imagine a master compressor, a Finalizer that puts you in full control of your output. Add to that Konnekt Live's extensive output routing that enhances the audio passing through via its optimized analog output section. Bundled with Ableton Live Lite 6 TC Electronic Edition software and a suite of built-in DSP effects, you won't find a more versatile interface for your live performance.

Typically, real-time, high quality output processing puts heavy demands on your CPU. Not so with Konnekt Live. Since all DSP processing takes place inside Konnekt Live, all you have to worry about is being creative - your computer is left with plenty of headroom for other tasks.

Konnekt Live - studio quality output, road-sturdy control and unsurpassed DSP effects for the digital artist.

Studio Quality Sound
At its most basic, the sound quality of Konnekt Live takes your performance to the next level. Whether you run pre-recorded tracks, effects, plug-ins or live inputs through it, Konnekt Live easily outperforms other audio interfaces, compact mixers or budget rack units on the scene. You can think of this interface as a high quality yet compact mixer that integrates perfectly with balanced or unbalanced systems, big PA rigs and active speaker systems alike.

DSP Effects Inside
Konnekt Live houses a suite of advanced effects, including DSP, under its hood that were designed with your toughest performance requirements in mind. The effects quality so far only known from recording studios is now within reach for your live setup.

Fabrik R Live

ResFilter
Lo-cut/hi-cut filter that offers you ultra fat filtering effects. Throw in resonance, 6, 12 and 24 dB slopes for even more stunning sounds. Its inter-communication-bus facilitates controlling and tweaking multiple plug-ins and parameters from one plug-in, cross-fading between two plug-ins etc.

Sturdy design
Its road-ready casing is designed for the rigors of live performing and life on the road. It fits right under your laptop and its heavy rubber frame serves as a solid grip on tilted or slippery surfaces allowing this baby to take a serious amount of gravitational punishment before it gives in to the laws of physics.

Versatility
If you crave that old school touch, stay tuned: Konnekt Live comes with a turntable cable and an onboard RIAA plug-in. The selection of RIAA filters gives you studio quality vinyl ripping to mix in with your own music or mash-ups. Konnekt Live's MIDI I/O allows you to plug an external MIDI controller right into the loop without a USB MIDI interface. Assign the front panel light ring as a MIDI controller for tweaking optional parameters if you like to loop in a more tangible grip of things.

Technical Specifications tcelectronic Notes for Konnekt Live

*6) Konnekt Live only

Minimum system requirements

Mac OSX 10.4.9 or later  • PowerPC (1 GHz or faster) or Intel CPU • 512 MB RAM • FireWire (IEEE 1394) port* • OS X 10.4.9 or later Windows XP SP2 or Vista x32  • Pentium 4, 1.6 GHz or faster • 512 MB RAM • FireWire (IEEE 1394) port* • Windows XP * We recommend running konnekts on a dedicated FireWire bus. If your computer has one or more FireWire connections on the chassis they will typically run on the same FireWire bus. You may connect the konnekt to one of these. If you intend to run more FireWire devices simultaneously, such as e.g. an external hard drive, we recommend running this device on a separate bus. This would typically be on an installed FireWire PCI card. Note that such a FireWire PCI card typically has 3 ports but these also operate on a single bus. ** Please beware that not all functionality is available at quad speed sample rates (176.4 & 192 kHz)

Jolana Strat

Production of Jolana Strat started in 1988, 2 HB pickups, maple neck, relatively playable guitar. This is one of the last Jolana models, made during the late 80's when the company produced clones of famous Fender and Gibson models rather than original designs. 

Fender officially introduced 2-HB stratocaster only by the end of 90's, so even here Jolana was ahead of the time - as usual. 

The Strat sounds very thin and stingy - despite the humbuckers. Jolana bridge has some bug in the construction because it breaks strings constantly. During the mid- 90's my band was usually playing gigs with another band where the lead singer played Jolana Strat. I was playing bass and our guitar player used Gibson LP M3. Every singe gig we went through the same scenario: their singer was breaking a string on his Strat during the first (rarely second) song and then borrowing our Les Paul till the end of their set. I still don't know if he did that on purpose or not. http://cheesyguitars.com

Eko Minstrel model: 2000 Portable Analog Organ/Synthesizer, February 1969, made in Italy

Link: combo-organ

"Aha, the Minstrel surfaces!  Thanks to Jacques Stompboxes for the pictures and descriptive info.

Three whole octaves (WAAAAY, more than the puny 2-1/2 I'd previously been told it had)!  Four voices, "Bass Chorus", and Vibrato, plus the built-in amp./speaker that seems so common in organs of this caliber..  I suspect those "drawbars" are just on/off switches, just like on the Tigers." 

Controls:

• Knobs: On/Off/Command (Volume?), Tone,  BC/AC/RE (?)
• "Drawbars": Mellow, Reed, Brass, Flute, Bass Chorus, Vibrato
