Comments about Native Instruments KOMPLETE 8 - Virtual Instruments and Effects Collection:
I began to purchase only 3 products from NI (Scarbee Vintage Keys, Vintage Organs, and Upright Piano)... but as I researched I found that for a couple of hundred dollars more I could get an amazing number of samples and products that included the above, but so much more. The samples are top-notch, the variety of instruments, sounds, and synthesizers is simply amazing. Highly recommended for anyone creating music, soundscapes, songwriting, scoring or whatever you do to create music.
