I'm pretty sure it's a good piece of software

I'm pretty sure it's a good piece of software. I just couldn't use it because it was not compatible with my Komplete 10 so I had to return it. #SUCKS
Synths are awesome.. Sampled instruments are ok

It has huge variety of sounds..
Synths are awesome.. Sampled instruments are ok.
I wish they have included session guitarist on the product.

Finally made the jump

Finally made the jump from the standard version of Komplete to Komplete Ultimate. Definitely worth it! The Heavyocity instruments alone have been worth it to me so far. The Softube EQ's and dynamics are also a nice addition. The USB hard drive is also a nice addition vs having to install 15 discs worth of material. Have had NI Komplete since version six and there is no doubt in my mind it is one of the most complete music making packages on the market.
Long installation process, but worth it!

Came with about 10 discs to install haha luckily I have a 1TB SSD hard drive so my data transfer speed is crazy fast... still took me about 5 hours to install everything. Was a little confusing figuring out how to load all the presets for the instruments via Logic Pro X but I simply went to their FAQ form and found what I needed. Awesome, awesome sounds... won't be needing any new instruments for awhile.
Somewhat flawed, but basically unmatched VST collection
Brian Hill✓ Verified Purchase•October 13, 2015
I've been a Komplete user since V6, so when I recently started working on some new stuff after a 2 year hiatus, I looked to upgrade my VST collection, and Komplete was the obvious choice. However, since I wanted to make sure I got the best bang for my buck (and an upgrade from 7 to 10 was a whopping $700), I looked around for comparable packages. I found none even close, so Komplete it was.
Despite having no choice, there are still a large number of things I find very compelling (Kompelling?) about Komplete:
- Guitar Rig is easily the best guitar effects software I've found. And it's awesome on pianos too.
- Nearly any sound you want can be found or built using the included software....as long as it isn't hyper-realistic guitars (look to RealGuitar/Strat/Eight for that).
- Some of the new instruments (Rounds, Kinetic Metal, Skanner) are pretty damn creative and generally awesome.
- There's an OBSCENE amount of stuff to experiment with.
- Most NI instruments are highly mutable if you tweak your controllers. Some completely transform.
- The Komplete Kontrol app (even without the supported NI hardware) is a really nice way to find all instruments and patches.
Mostly, I'm happy with my decision, but there are a few negatives worth mentioning:
- The search function could use a lot of help. It's still pretty hard to find what you are looking for.
- There's no real good way to rate all instruments/patches. You can in certain VSTs (1-5 star in Guitar Rig, for example), but in others you are SOL.
- NI is REALLY proud of it.
- Some of the instruments (Rise and Hit, I'm looking at you) are so darn specific that they are completely useless for a large number of people.
- The huge number of patches and parameters per patch makes the whole thing an enormous time sink. To be fair, it can be very inspiring. But you can also get lost and forget the thing you were inspired to do.
