Kollektion will be the new name.

Kekskiste would be my guess

Then they could always release it the day before or the next day.

Yes, these superstitious so called adults...
In Germany the trains have no wagon 13,
airlines have no row 13,
even the calendar has no 13th month!

These things are meaningless. In Asia the number 9 means bad luck.

I’ve always associated Friday 13th with bad shit. But never just the number 13 on its own.

mega super ultimate komplete

I smile when I look at the names because it's like they have run out of words to add more marketing sparkle than the previous names.

Could put "K" at the beginning of a collection that assimilates everything, but "Korg" is already taken.

This seems like a bit of an odd time for NI to start releasing preset packs for Massive, if v2 (or X) is on its way.

https://www.native-instruments.com/en/s ... m-massive/

That said, the offer ends September 3rd, which might point to Komplete 12's release date being shortly afterwards.

They will maintain both products I’m sure. Massive will continue to be provided with Maschine certainly and I doubt they will abandon it too quickly. We don’t really know what Massive X will be anyways but it will be a whole separate thing, rather than replacing the older one like for example fm7 to fm8 or absynth 4 to 5.

I'd be interested in that ...

Screw leaks. Takes ages until they finally release the stuff then...

Has anyone considered that Massive X might in fact just be the name Komplete 12 uses for the bundle of Massive eXpansions included?

TBH, i'm even quite convinced that it won't be the successor to Massive. Rather wishful thinking IMO.
