Ok. Frankly, it would be a bit sick if they included everything though. People are already complaining when they can't uninstall their 20 NI products on Mac OS. Apart from unnecessary bloat, when they can just cut it all into a sensefully streamlined bundle. I don't know any other software bundle which offers so much anyway though.

Which is exactly my argument for a better naming convention. Let the user understand what they're getting.

I'd love it if they renamed their products, here is an alternative suggestion to my alternative suggestion:
Komplete Start = "Not Even Inkomplete"
Komplete = "Inkomplete"
Komplete UCE = "Komplete"

Good lord.

Yes, NI have many times more products now than in 2004. At some point it made sense to them to broaden out the package to different versions, but they kept the name. There was a good gag about it a few years ago when they first released Ultimate - someone mocked up an Inkomplete poster and they put it on the office wall at Berlin HQ. Cute. But only on KVR at this point is any of this worth 5 pages of a thread, with only about 5% of the posts discussing the new actual product.

Speaking of which...

Um, no. Here's what I think is new as compared to the original players:

TRK-01 BASS
LAZERBASS
CARBON 2
SPACE DRONE
NEWSCOOL
KONTAKT PLAY SERIES SELECTION - streamlined versions of ANALOG DREAMS, ETHEREAL EARTH, and HYBRID KEYS.
KINETIC TREATS
SUPERCHARGER
EXPANSIONS SELECTION - 1,500 loops and samples

Plus the Players themselves always were a pretty good thing. I think this is a great set for folks starting out.

It's funny that people take my joke about the name to mean that the bundle is not good.

It's a great bundle. They all are.

in other shocking news, sure to chafe the genitals of the 'NI product names should be legally binding contracts' brigade...

massive isnt actually that big, absynth doesnt get you drunk, battery doesnt provide any voltage, and traktor doesnt mow your f**king fields.

Pretty much everything but those expansions are either players stuff or some freebies from few years. I know because I have those all.
