Native Instruments Announces KOMPLETE 7

Berlin, July 28th, 2010 - Native Instruments today announced KOMPLETE 7,
a significantly expanded version of its studio-standard software bundle.
The next generation of KOMPLETE now combines 24 instruments and effects
– including five entirely new products – with over 10,000 sounds and 90
GByte of samples, resulting in a comprehensive suite with unparalleled
versatility for music production and performance.

KOMPLETE 7 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 many enhancements for both instrument builders and musicians.

KOMPLETE 7 also integrates a wealth of instruments and effects based on
the player versions of KONTAKT, KORE, REAKTOR and GUITAR RIG. Products
added to the bundle include the acclaimed ABBEY ROAD 60s DRUMS vintage
drum library, the radical performance effect THE FINGER by Tim Exile,
the sampled electric bass SCARBEE MM-BASS and all four electric pianos
from the SCARBEE VINTAGE KEYS series by sampling mastermind Thomas
Scarbee, all four acoustic pianos of the CLASSIC PIANO COLLECTION, the
cinematic ACOUSTIC REFRACTIONS instrument and the distinctive REAKTOR
SPARK synthesizer.

KOMPLETE 7 also incorporates five completely new products that further
expand the creative potential of the bundle: 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.

Every copy of KOMPLETE 7 also includes an NI Online Shop voucher worth
$60 / 50 EUR, valid towards any product from the KOMPLETE Instruments
and Effects range that is not included in the bundle.
