Its not really insane at all when you consider what you get for the money, add up the cost of individual packages and it will be about $10000
Also Komplete 8 ultimate has only been on sale for a very short while to clear old stock
That said, I have komplete 8 ultimate, I could easily make do with the extras in Komplete 9 rather than Komplete 9 Ultimate.
Upgrade to Komplete 9 from komplete 8 is 149 Euros
What's the betting I cant half upgrade lol so that I get the new instruments in Komplete 9 for 149 Euros but keep all the Komplete 8 Ultimate stuff
Wonder what my wife will say iafet my Kronos, Cubase 7 upgrade etc if I now say I want 399 Euros for ultimate 9, only one way to find out hehe. |

For me the only intrest is Monark, so unfortionaly probably i will buy Monark separetly and wait until Koplite10
Monark s very interesting, but do not forget anout Uhe Diva, but i think they can be noth very cool because they share the sametop of the line DSP modeeling technology, but u know that even 2 the same Moogs might not sound identical, so i think they can be both good but just with a different sound flavor, but another reson why Monark can be a good addition to Uhe Diva is that it can be used in Reaktor with all it's possibilities and i can even modifi it. _________________ https://слово-божье.рф

I don't like the K8 Ultimate to K9 Ultimate upgrade price, too high. You get about 25% new content.
If you already have any "regular" Komplete an upgrade to the Ultimate edition is great. _________________ ** KORG Product Support Contacts **

Why dont they do a hardware synth of this and call it ultimate hardware fill of controllers, touch screen, connectivity etc etc... cant be hard if they sell so much software, they must be a rich company, its about time they brought out a hardware synth full of Komplete!!!!

Well... I presume this is the "Revolution"? Stopped at the first barricade me thinks - what happened to "One synth to rule them all"?
Battery 4 update, another Moog clone and a further bunch of libraries.
Considering the upgrade price, I find this very disappointing. Definately sticking to Komplete 7 _________________ Synth DIY Projects |

you can do it now http://musiccomputing.com
but the base model is about 2 grand u can load Komplete and anything u want.
P.s. If u want something less exansive then 2 grand then it is not possible because the hardwere for that price will be so crappy that u will have only a cou[ple of notes of poliphony _________________ https://слово-божье.рф

Year me too, i probably will wait until another Komplite, because there is nothing what interest me in Komplete 9. I want a new Reaktor, FM and etc...
I might buy Monark separetly though, but i want to try it first when their will be awailabe demo to try, because it is still unknown if Monark core cells are locked or no, or can i use some parts of Monark in my custom Reaktor projekts because if Monark will be locked, i do not see a porpuse for it. Because Reaktor is for creating anything u want and if Monark will be locked i won't buy it. _________________ https://слово-божье.рф

Just took the plunge and pre-ordered an update from Komplete 8 Ultimate to 9 Ultimate. A heafty 399 Euro - bloody hell.
There's lots on Komplete 8 Ultimate I already don't use (!) so this is an expensive and frustrating upgrade, but I usually try to keep all my software products up to date as a matter of course or they become out moded and unmanageable over time. Usually don't mind the ~ $100 level upgrade cost, so this is a very expensive one (and it had better be worth it!!) |

And what new stuff would you really use in K9U that's not already in the normal K9 which is just $149? There's certainly nothing I need or would use more than just a quick play for the extra $250 |
