Native Instruments KOMPLETE 7

German audio software specialists Native Instruments announced KOMPLETE 7, a significantly expanded version of their studio-standard software bundle. The next generation of KOMPLETE includes the latest versions of Native Instruments' acclaimed full-featured instruments and effects, ranging from ABSYNTH 5, BATTERY 3.1, FM8, GUITAR RIG 4.1, KONTAKT 4.1 and MASSIVE to the upcoming REAKTOR 5.5. As the next generation of the legendary modular synthesis studio, the new REAKTOR version adds powerful modal and additive synthesis, a revised user interface, the unique "Lazerbass" synthesizer and more. KOMPLETE 7 also incorporates five completely new products: The powerful studio reverb REFLEKTOR with its advanced zero-latency convolution engine; the highly expressive REAKTOR PRISM modal synthesizer designed by NI founder Stephan Schmitt; the performance effects suite TRAKTOR'S 12, derived from Native Instruments' leading DJ software; the new VINTAGE ORGANS instrument with its comprehensive arsenal of painstakingly sampled electromagnetic organs; and the new RAMMFIRE amp emulation that was developed in close collaboration with one of Rammstein's guitarists, Richard Z. Kruspe. KOMPLETE is 'kompatible' with VST, Audio Units, RTAS (Pro Tools), ASIO, Core Audio, DirectSound, and WASAPI standards on Windows and Mac OS X platforms, and costs 499 EUR. Updates are from 199 EUR. [source]
