Product Comparison of all Komplete VersionsĮvery year or two when a new Komplete release looms, music message boards light up with users asking, 'If I have version X of Komplete, what would I gain by upgrading to version Y?' This hasn't always been an easy question to answer, because Native Instruments preserves very little information about older products on their site.

No other single virtual instrument publisher offers quite the breadth and depth that the Komplete series has consistently delivered since that first big blue box hit store shelves. When they packed their nine best products into one giant box and dubbed it 'Komplete,' the message was clear: Why go anywhere else for software instruments when everything you need is right here? Today's Komplete Ultimate bundles are the soft-synth equivalent of Waves Mercury.

In 2003, a seven year old Native Instruments knew what it wanted to be when it grew up: The dominant force in virtual music instruments.

UPDATE (August 1, 2016): The comparison chart has now been updated for Komplete 11! Please see the new ' Native Instruments Komplete Version Comparison 2.0' for the latest updates on Komplete bundles. The package includes a free version of KOMPLETE, instruments and effects, KOMPLETE KONTROL software, full MASCHINE (MASCHINE Essentials ) software plus 1.6 GB of MASCHINE Factory Selection samples, one shots, loops, and instruments, all this plus Ableton Live 10 Lite.UPDATE (May 7, 2020): I am no longer able to stay on top of this stuff, but user gNNY from the Native Instruments forum has continued my work with his own version of the database. This package should really hit home with Producers and DJs who are just starting on their journeys. The unit is USB powered and has inputs for a TRS pedal which is quite a bonus on a micro keyboard like this. On the rear there’s just a footswitch port, a Kensington lock port, and a USB port.

The new keyboard features a small OLED display screen for displaying parameters, two touch strips, touch sensitive control knobs, eight knobs in total, for tweaking parameters and a variety of transport controls, the physical pitch and modulation wheels have been replaced with touch strips. Native Instruments has kept its focus on entry-level producers with this new addition to the Komplete Kontrol family. This portable 32 key Keyboard, the Komplete Kontrol M32, is more or less the same size as last year’s A25 keyboard but manages to fit an extra seven keys by using mini keys. Native Instruments have announced a new 32-key micro sized keyboard controller.
