by Unknown
Komplete Start is Native Instruments’ free bundle: over 2,000 sounds, 16 instruments, and several effects. It includes the Kontakt Player, Reaktor Player, and Massive X Player, plus sampled pianos, drums, strings, an Irish harp, and more. I love the variety here. Vintage analog synth tones from Analog Dreams, acoustic instruments, cinematic textures, all in one package. The sound quality is excellent because it’s all based on NI’s commercial products.
You also get the RAUM reverb and the mastering EQ from iZotope’s Ozone collection, both of which I use regularly. And the included Kontakt Player opens the door to dozens of free Kontakt libraries from other developers. The downsides: the download is huge, and the Native Access installer is slow and clunky. It also takes a while to figure out how Kontakt Player, Komplete Kontrol, and the individual instruments all relate to each other.
Once you get past the setup, though, the sounds are worth it. Komplete Start runs on Windows and Mac but doesn’t support Linux.
