The only things in there I don't recognize from Ultimate 10, apart from the "one knob" things, are some Indian percussion, an Una Corda piano, Tim Exile's "Flesh" (for drums) and an acoustic guitar. Oh and Reaktor 6 I guess.


The Indian percussion thing is the offering called India. I happened to have that one. I can't say I've used it yet on a song, but the sounds are really nice and I'm glad I have it. I'd like to use it when it can contribute to a song in a creative way. I like it.

This Flesh thing seems pretty interesting:

It does look right up my alley that thing. I love anything that takes some kind of raw material and turns it into something new. To this end I have hours and hours of fun with Resochord, one of the most underrated ensembles in the Reaktor factory library. It takes an audio input, usually something percussive, and uses it via an envelope follower to resonate 6 virtual "strings" the pitches of which you can control with a MIDI input. So you can feed it a drum track and your MIDI notes and you'll be playing these strings to the rhythm of the drum track. You can get some really unique stereo sounds out of it. This Flesh thing looks like this idea taken to the next level.

I'll have to give Resochord another look.

Well I decided to take the plunge and get the Komplete 10 boxed version, I need Kontakt 4 or greater for some sound libraries, and at the moment Kontakt 5 cost $200AUD less than Komplete 10 standard retail full version in Australia.
 
Komplete 11 can wait until an upgrade sale! that is if its worth the upgrade (Reaktor 6 and decent amount of woodwinds), I would not of even got this version if not needing Kontakt 5, I would of been much happier spending money on Omnisphere 2 or some nice hardware.
 
On a side note, NI must be making a killing, most places I tried had sold out, some even have it taken of their websites, leaving crossgrades/upgrades and ultimate available.  Or mabye they just clearing old stock for next version!

Good decision, Siluroo. You'll have lots to play with until the upgrade to 11 goes half off, at the earliest during the summer of '17.

Have we heard anyone say,"I bought Komplete, what a waste of money"? Same for upgrading to Ultimate. Omnisphere too.

The 40GB Bulgarian Groin Harp on a USB3 drive is a different story. And don't buy it from the Bulgarian online discounter, For To Make Cheap Purchase. No customer support at all during the cabbage harvest.

You've been warned.
