Nothing here to justify upgrading my Komplete Ultimate 13, but it's always inspiring to hear packages being used, and I actually enjoyed all the demos you created here. I spend far too much time and money on music software that I never get around to using, but I still keep purchasing more..... it is so addictive!!! 😄

@raoulbandera Год назад

Hell....I'm still on Standard 9, and WANT to justify going to something past what I have LOL.

@830jkl Год назад

@@raoulbandera 1 outlook is if there’s something that will help inspire a new song or musical idea, then you’ve invested in yourself. Also if a purchase covers an area where you have a void, (eg. guitars, orchestral, easier trap hi hats, vocal plugins) then $ well spent.

@Saeedathar Год назад

I realized couple of months ago the instruments we have right now are like having a 100 piece orchestra 20 years ago .. it's more than enough whatever we want to produce .. it's upto us how we use these instruments

@StefanMichaels-ut9jg Год назад

Which is your most valued piece of software (vst?)

@LezMarwick Год назад

@@StefanMichaels-ut9jg I have loads of fantastic vsts so that is an incredibly difficult question, but if I could only keep one vst it would probably be kv331audio's Synthmaster 2.

Mike, another great video and excellent demos. It would be nice if you get this midi demo and use free VSTs to have a comparison and decide if worth pay for it. Thanks mate.

@CreativeSauce Год назад

You know, the truth is with some of plugins, patterns are played from one note being held - so the midi may not be helpful :( I like the idea though. For other demos I should do this.

@richardridings7511 Год назад

Aw Mike thank you. Very usefu- i've just got the Ultimate- but I think I need a new computer to use it to it's maximum potential. Loved the demos (But I was hoping for a little bit of a dive into the machine expansions) BTW what did you use for drums in demo 1?

@ConsciousRobot Год назад

Komplete Now subscription has all of the best tools and none of the stuff I'd consider filler, or just stuff I wouldn't use. It's a very well curated bundle.

@ArthurHendriks Год назад

I'm still at Komplete Ultimate 9 that runs Kontakt 5 in it, so for me there's a benefit upgrading to Komplete Standart 14

@furiobisotti8150 Год назад

Very well made. It gives information (more than NI ads or vids) and keys for understanding. Point is that I am an old user of Komplete, but being an amateur keyboard player in cover bands, I am using it much less than in the past. I think NI guys are more interested in hip hop or bedroom producers, a way of playing which is far away from mine. Let's see Kontakt 7 (if they solved the bug preventing any sample to play correctly as the first key is pressed...)

@CreativeSauce Год назад

Thank you Furio!

@TheMirolab Год назад

I'm still at Komplete 10 Ultimate, so I'm right on the verge of needing an upgrade. I guess maybe I'll wait for Kontakt 7 to be ready, or maybe they'll have a special Black Friday deal??

@dennisvandermeer8238 Год назад

And don't forget that if you buy separate items and later want to buy a Komplete bundle there are no discounts so you basically buy everything you already bought again. I am also a bit disappointed with what is included in Komplete 14. I already have Komplete 13 Ultimate CE and 14 contains mainly expansions (and a few interesting libraries) and they ask 399 euro for me to upgrade which is way too much money for what you get. They bumped up the price considerable. Even Kontakt 7 is a bit of a disappointment as it still has no decent resizing capability. I will wait until the next Summer Of Sound before I upgrade with a 50% discount

@corypalmer5495 8 месяцев назад

Exactly, if you buy separate items they won't let you upgrade at a discount. It makes no sense. Also, I don' think they have that many interesting libraries in Komplete 14, so I'm gonna wait for Komplete 15.

@aquaticborealis4877 Год назад

There is also Komplete Now, the subscription service.

@bernardhvanengen5002 Год назад

I bought an Emu Xboard25 second hand and was entitled to a free copy of Ableton Live Lite. This entitled me to a free copy of Native Access, followed by Kontakt and Kontakt 7 player and a few other plugins

@philipford6183 Год назад

I recently got Komplete 14 Standard at a 50% discount (still £250, though). I'm a little disappointed with my purchase - and definitely feeling some buyer's remorse. I have only myself to blame - I really should have done far more research before being a fool and getting out the card. I already had the NI Discovery series of plugins (Cuba, West Africa, India, and Middle-East), as well as Noire, so in effect I was forced to purchase these again as part of the discounted package. I'm shocked at how poor most of Reaktor 6's soft synths/players are. Hardly any of them are intuitive, and most sound terrible 'out-of-the-box' with little to no guidance to the new user as to how get something decent out of them. Kontak's plugins fare far better - generally very polished and easy to get to grips with. TLDR: I would advise anyone to learn from my mistake: do your homework (as far as you are able) before taking the plunge on Komplete.

@craigturb Год назад

I was hoping that Arkhis and Damage 2 might be included in Komplete Ultimate 14, but sadly not. At least Ashlight, Pharlight and Straylight are there, which I'm really keen on, but not sure I can justify the upgrade from version 12 as most of the new stuff I don't really need if we're being honest. Thanks for the great overview, Mike - really useful.

@yeorgemusic Год назад

Agree! How much would it be to upgrade from your version 12 to version 14?

@Inversible100 8 месяцев назад

Is it just a hobby for you or do you can pay your bills with your production?

@simlaisumit День назад

All of the demos were simply fantastic. Very difficult to say which one of them is better. I liked them all. I had just recently purchased the Standard version which I think serves the purpose. Just one question: you said “other than contemporary type of music” for the Ultimate version. What would other than mean?😊

Hi Mike. How do you feel about the S61 vs the Arturia?

@xnewerx Год назад

It's funny to use Massive X for a sub bass 😆 I mean it's a good synth with some great and unique features. But eating ~700 mb of RAM to create a sine wave... I think your demos inspire not really to buy something but to create music. Even if you didn't want to. And that is much more important, thank you!

@CreativeSauce Год назад

LOL - so true... I was working quick. Initially I was gonna try to make the whole sound in my head in massive x. Started with a sine wave... and then though, ok , that sound s fine with the others! Lazy option. Thank you. I honestly have most fun when I'm trying to very quickly create demos. Its hot and miss, but I love it!
