What's Included

Orchestral Collections

Collector's Edition is where NI's orchestral library reaches full depth — 17 dedicated classical titles, seven more than Ultimate. The defining step up is the complete Symphony Series in place of the Essentials tier: Symphony Series Brass Ensemble, Brass Solo, Percussion, String Ensemble, Woodwind Ensemble, and Woodwind Solo — the definitive orchestral sound of NI's flagship recordings. Alongside them:

• Choir: Omnia — the full 40-piece expressive choir (replacing Choir: Omnia Essentials)
• Valves Pro — the premium brass library for mellow ensemble textures (replacing Valves)
• Cremona Quartet Ensemble — four of the world's most revered string instruments
• Amati Viola, Guarneri Violin, Stradivari Cello — individual premium solo strings
• Emotive Strings — expressive string writing for cinematic and modern classical work
• Action Strikes, Action Strings 2, Action Woodwinds — the powerful Action series for dramatic, high-impact scoring

Cinematic Sound Design Tools

The most expansive cinematic toolkit in any Komplete bundle — 31 instruments, seven more than Ultimate. Every tool from Ultimate's collection is included, plus seven titles exclusive to this edition:

Arkhis for expressive layered ensembles, Circular for chord-driven evolving textures, Claire: Avant for experimental extended piano techniques, Fables for intimate storytelling sound design, Kithara for an enormous library of cinematic guitars, Lores for ancient and mythological sonic worlds, and Odes for eclectic rhythm-driven cinematic character.

Together with Straylight, Pharlight, Ashlight, Erosia, Rise & Hit, Scene Series, and the full range of tools from Ultimate, this is the most complete cinematic palette available in any NI bundle.

Legendary Synthesisers

The same 17 synthesisers as Ultimate — Massive X, Absynth 6, Razor, Flesh, Skanner XT, Super 8, Blocks Prime, FM8, Form, Monark, Kontour, Reaktor 6, Reaktor Prism, Reaktor Spark, Rounds, The Mouth, TRK-01 — the complete NI synth collection with nothing left out.

Sampled Instruments

The full library of faithfully recorded instruments: 8 acoustic pianos, 8 electric pianos and organs, 12 guitars, 5 bass titles, 19 drum and percussion instruments, 3 contemporary strings and horns titles, 7 Spotlight Series world instruments, and all 28 Play Series instruments. Every sampled instrument from Ultimate is included at this level, with no omissions.

Drums & Percussion

19 drum and percussion titles spanning every era and genre. Bring cinematic drama with Action Strikes and Damage. Create intricate rhythms with Session Percussionist. Channel decades of character with the full Abbey Road series. Dive into the signature sounds of Karriem Riggin Drums, Butch Vig Drums, Marco Polo Drums, and the hard-knocking beats of Rudiments — and that's just the beginning.

Effects

The most complete NI effects suite — 17 mixing and mastering tools and 16 creative effects. Collector's Edition adds the two crown-jewel Brainworx processors absent from Ultimate: bx_console AMEK 200 for legendary console character, and bx_masterdesk PRO for high-end mastering signal chains. Combine with the full suite of vintage compressors (VC 160, VC 2A, VC 76), iZotope Elements tools, and the complete NI creative effects collection — Guitar Rig 7 Pro, RC 24, RC 48, Raum, Replika XT, Phasis, VocalSynth 2, Trash, Molekular, and more.

Expansions & Sound Packs

101 Komplete Expansions — nearly double Ultimate's count. From cinematic soundscapes to dancehall (System Clash), the soul of Detroit (Conant Gardens), Lone Forest dub techno, and everything in between. Every Expansion from Ultimate is included, plus 45 additional titles available exclusively at this level. Add 29 Massive X Expansions and all 20 Leap Expansions, and you have the broadest genre coverage in any NI bundle.
