Native Instruments 50% Discount 🔥 Tips for 2024 

Sir can you make a video on Why ablton live using too much cpu like 125% how to solve this ❤ please

Noire grand vs other piano libraries in native instruments...what can i choose please gudie me...now in offer too😢

Not keen on the KK implemention of Analog Lab Pro - prefer to use it on its own and midi map the controls to the hardware you have if you don't have an Arturia Keyboard. The M32 is great for a portable take anywhere keyboard although it is a little cramped on the keybed for big mits. Love the Kontakt Libraries and they have some great soundscaping instruments, would be nice to have UI updates for Monark and Reactor just for scaling on 4K screens, Battery too. Tempted to get Collector edition upgrade to get me some more of the Cremona Quartet and some other nuggets.👍

It seems that the M32 has shite velocity sensitivity. Do a search for "Native Instruments M32 velocity sensitivity" and you will be educated about its flaws.

NI have abandoned Maschine

​@@hvhvgitaar Really? Where did you get that from?

@@cirisirpula152 the Keyboard mk2 Generation supports Maschine and the mk3 keyboards does not support Maschine it’s a known fact

@@phelper4554 yes, but doesn't mean that they have abandoned Maschine

@@cirisirpula152 It’s hard not think they have abandoned it. There has been no investment in new features for a few years now. Basic maintenance to keep the software up to date with computer operating systems has been very slow compared to competitors. Updates are limited to a few bug fixes and a change of logo. The last update is just fixing the bugs introduced by the previous update. There have been no new instruments added to run natively on Maschine+ for years. The new Komplete keyboards no longer support Maschine, which is frankly bizarre seeing how AKAI has successfully extended the market for its MPC platform with the MPC Key 61 and 32. All these signs point to the conclusion that NI is no longer interested in Maschine, apart from occasionally launching new extensions. That’s of course very lucrative because they are dead cheap to produce, but NI will not be able to maintain the market share of Maschine against the likes of MPC and Ableton because those 2 are constantly innovating and offering new value. I love Maschine’s workflow, but i have to now accept that it is a legacy platform, not something for the future…

I was literally thing the same thing.

That's a great video idea!

Hey, since you asked a great question, let me not make you wait for a video. I'll do my best to explain here. 1. Komplete is a brand name Native Instruments uses to describe different products. Basically its an ecosystem of hardware and software. You have the Komplete Kontrol software that gives you an access point for all the sounds NI sells. Then you have the Komplete Kontrol midi keyboards like the M32, S49, and S88 that give you hands-on control of the software. So connect the keyboard to your computer, load up the KK software and you can browse sounds and play them on your keyboard. Now where do these sounds come from? ... 2. Komplete software bundles like Komplete Standard, Ultimate, etc., are suites of software (aka plugins) that contain sounds. These are sounds stored on your computer. Load up Komplete Kontrol software, and it looks for any Komplete bundles you have and lets you browse and play sounds from those bundles. NI also bundles some effects plugins with their Komplete collections. 3. Kontakt is a software plugin that lets you load NI's "sampled" libraries of instruments. Think of is as a wrapper-plugin that holds different instruments. When you purchase a Komplete bundle or individual instruments from NI, you load many of them into Kontakt. Kontakt is an alternate way to load and play sounds to Komplete Kontrol. The nice thing about Kontakt is other companies can create instruments for it. So Output has instruments that run in Kontakt. And there are lots of free instruments you can download for it. 4. Reaktor is similar to Kontakt above, but it allows for easy modular-style instrument/effects creation. So you can build your own instruments or effects...or just download stuff other people have created. 5. Maschine hardware is a tool for creating and performing beats - or full productions - and it really encourages hands-on beat performance. Look up "Datsunn" on IG or YT, and you'll see a great example of what can be done. Maschine uses NI software of the same name that allows you to easily work between computer and Maschine hardware. Maschine has its own unique workflow - its kind of like a DAW, but designed for beatmaking. Getting into Maschine generally requires you to really dedicate some time to that new workflow. Its super fun, though. Once you've learned the basics, you can be like Datsunn! :-) Hope this helps a bit, until I make a video!

Absynth is so good! It's so small on my monitor though and I need reading glasses to use it.

Me too!! 100%

do you know if theres any annoying licensing software/dongle bs with kontakt?

​@@hydra4370 There is not. You basically just have to download the Native Access software and access everything from there. No iLok garbage required.

Me too, bought it last year and I use it almost in every project.

​@@hydra4370 Unless something's changed lately, they have Native Access (their download/installation/authorization manager). I assume that's necessary for all their software but I'm not certain.

Nice thanks for the tip!

Now get an external SSD! hahah!

Perhaps you figured out already but yes. The question then is whether you upgrade now (spending $200) and then spend another $200 to upgrade from 14 to 15 in about a year at least (waiting for another discount) or just wait a little now and upgrade from 13 to 15 right away when Komplete 15 is out.

Aw man. :-(

Always remember: Never Upgrade between January and May / August - November 😁

@@Inversible100 first time upgrading, I learned the hard way lol thanks for the tip though

@@AdjutorMusic To be honest I bought last year december my first komplete bundle, but that was one of the first tips I heard of 😅 I never thought that NI does sales in the summer & december

Nice one to grab! Thanks so much for the Super Thanks, my friend!

they should considering you purchased it really recent

Just for the future. NI always has these -50% sales on summer and on black friday

Get on it

Hardware is rarely on discount. Easier to put software on discount

Well those were fx right? Now for some instruments! Haha

Wow that’s a great price

I have K10 Ultimate and it's $200 to update to 14 Ultimate and that's realllly tempting still lol. Just got a KK A25 for $60 on ebay and I think I still have a little lingering G.A.S. ;)

That's their strategy to bundle new content into the next version of Komplete so people have to upgrade. I suppose makes business sense. I guess K15 should be out after summer.

@@chowhar ya but that would make sense for everyone to skip black friday and wait until summer of sound sale to get the most out of that edition unless you cannot wait. Thats what i am doing. Should have figured this out 2 kompletes ago. Dohhhh

@@joeymc5272 I hear ya! Maybe if they gave a special lower price to those that upgrade only one version then it might give us more options and prob make more money as ppl might upgrade more frequently.
