The most comprehensive Komplete yet

Komplete 26 Collector’s Edition is Native Instruments’ most extensive bundle, bringing together almost everything they have ever released in one package. You get over 160 instruments and effects, more than 150 Expansions and upwards of 65 new additions compared to previous versions, so you can tackle any brief or genre without needing extra plug-ins.

Flagship instruments for limitless sound design

At the core of the bundle are heavy hitters like Kontakt 8, Massive X, Guitar Rig 7 Pro, Reaktor 6, FM8, Massive and Monark, plus the long-awaited Absynth 6. From detailed sampled pianos and orchestras to advanced wavetable, granular and FM synthesis, you have a full spectrum of sound design tools for everything from subtle textures to boundary-pushing experimental work.

Cutting-edge cinematic and compositional tools

New titles such as Circular, Odes, Claire: Avant, LCO Producer Strings, Cremona Quartet Ensemble and Erosia give composers a powerful palette for modern scoring. Evolving pads, rhythmic ensembles, characterful strings and expressive pianos make it easy to move from a simple chord progression to a fully realised cinematic cue in minutes.

Professional mixing, mastering and creative FX

With the included iZotope ELements Tools (Ozone 12, Neutron 5, Nectar 4), Brainworx processors like bx_enhancer and bx_glue, and the innovative FXEQ, you can shape, polish and finalise your tracks inside the Komplete ecosystem. From corrective mixing to radio-ready loudness and creative sound mangling, you have all the processing you need built in.

Expansions for instant inspiration

Over 150 Expansions provide genre-focused presets, kits, samples and loops for Kontakt 8, Massive X, Battery 4, Monark, Massive and more. Covering everything from modern pop and EDM to jazz, hip hop, cinematic and experimental styles, they give you ready-made starting points and production-ready sounds that drop straight into any DAW.
