For the last few weeks i have been extensively playing and toying around with Reaktor...and i have come to the conclusion that there isnt much that i can not do using Komplete and its expansions as a soundsource...

I think i will become a member of the Reaktor fanclub... I think its reaktor that makes komplete complete..

As much as I enjoy Reaktor, I know at least 50 synths that can do things that Reaktor can't do. Including by NI themselves.

Komplete is a good deal and offers a lot. It's only Komplete though until people find out other synths that might, or less, grab their interest .

They could really use a non-reaktor based modern VA synth in their line-up to fill the gap between monark and massive, besides that with all the sampled content, reaktor, & their other synths they've got all bases pretty well covered.

I could probably live with just Komplete in regard to synths. It's got most bases covered, but indeed not a "warm" sounding synth, except Monark, which is a bit limited feature-wise.
But the rational reasoning that Komplete will be all you need, will most likely not kill all your GAS

(at least, it didn't with me).

Exactly! Something like "Pro 54" would be great.

How about the new synths - Rounds and Kontour? They are made in Reactor, but soundwise they seem to be something between "analog-like" and "purely digital".

I'm judging only from the demos on the NI site, though, didn't upgrade my K9 yet.

Like any instrument, it's as complete as you want it to be. It's not about the size...etc.

I'm still on komplete 9 and komplete is pretty complete to me. I'm a gigging musician that can need a lot of diverty of patches and Kontakt library is pretty good to me. Sometimes the sound on it aren't the best, but there's a lot of diversity.

Kompletely wrong !

Very complete. Just about every base is covered. Kontakt for the samples and libraries, Reaktor for all the chameleon-like things it does, a bunch of standalone synths, a ton of drum libraries, players and groove boxes, FX for production, with some great choices for compression and EQ, and a boatload of guitar FX in Guitar Rig.

I've been wanting to start a thread complaining about the various levels of incompleteness inherent in NI's Komplete branding silliness...

I don't have any NI synths ... but I don't feel in-komplete

How complete is komplete?
