Native Instruments has announced Komplete 6, the latest version of its software bundle that has become a mainstay with professional musicians and producers. The new collection offers a veritable arsenal of acclaimed instruments and effects that cover all areas of modern music production, including powerful new versions of Absynth, Guitar Rig and Kontakt, at a significantly reduced price point (half the price of the previous bundle generation).

Komplete 6 incorporates the latest Absynth 5, Kontakt 4 and Guitar Rig 4 Pro versions, which add significant creative capabilities over their predecessors, complemented by Battery 3, FM8, Massive and Reaktor 5. All included products offer comprehensive compatibility for current host software versions and operating systems. Elektrik Piano is now included within the new Kontakt factory library, while Akoustik Piano, B4 II and Pro-53 are no longer part of the bundle due to their discontinuation as individual products. Overall, Komplete 6 includes an assortment of 7,000 individual preset sounds based on 60 GB of premium sample material
