People who love to mangle sound with software—and sample instruments with profound realism—we bring you joy: Native Instruments KOMPLETE 13 is now available at B&H, in your choice of Select, Standard, Ultimate, and Ultimate Collector’s Edition. As always, this next-gen version of KOMPLETE brings entirely new instruments, sounds, and effects into the fold—between 4 and 43 of them, depending on the edition you choose. All told, between 10,000 and 115,000 sounds are at your fingertips, as are production tools and effects for every genre under the sun—and a few under the moon, as well.
KOMPLETE Select is your basic option, offering 16 instruments and effects, including HYBRID KEYS and RAUM. The next tier, simply named KOMPLETE 13, gives you Guitar Rig 6 Pro, which provides new amps, new cabs, and a host of new effects. You’ll also find new instruments as well in the form of NOIRE—a concert grand piano sampled in Berlin—and SUPER 8, an evocative poly-synth.
KOMPLETE 13 Ultimate brings an impeccably sampled STRADIVARI VIOLIN into the fold, as well as new synths, such as the evocatively titled PHARLIGHT, a synth that gives you vocal-based granular sounds for pads, leads, and more. More realistic strings for the Kontakt instrument abound with Ultimate Collector’s Edition; you’ll be able to load the CREMONA QUARTET, a collection of rare, prized, and exceedingly expensive real-world string-quartet instruments. This collection is as much a service for humanity as it is for your productions, because Native Instruments is preserving the sound of some of the most famous individual classical instruments in history.
There are more features to harp about, to be sure, but space is limited here, so let’s leave it with this: pricing is the same as KOMPLETE 12, and multiple upgrade paths are available. So, whether you’re a composer or a sound designer, whether you produce pop tunes or facilitate celluloid soundtracks, head on over to our SuperStore or our website, and check out KOMPLETE 13 in the edition that best serves your needs.
