Flagship Instruments and Effects

Komplete 26 Standard centres around studio staples like Kontakt 8, Massive X and Guitar Rig 7 Pro, giving you industry-standard tools for sampling, synthesis and guitar processing.

This breadth of high quality instruments means you can cover basses, leads, pads, pianos, orchestral textures, guitars and more from a single bundle.

New Generation Sound Design

The revitalised Absynth 6 brings back a legendary semi-modular synthesiser with a modern hybrid engine that blends granular, FM, wavetable and subtractive synthesis. Deep modulation options and creative effects make it ideal for evolving textures, cinematic soundscapes and unique signature sounds. Alongside the latest version of Massive X, you have a cutting-edge environment for next generation sound design.

Creative Keys and Guitars

Electric Keys Jade and Electric Keys Teak deliver characterful electric keyboard tones, from punchy solid-state reed pianos to classic vintage voices. Session Guitarist Electric Neon Essentials provides chart-ready guitar parts tailored for EDM, modern pop and synth-forward productions. These instruments are designed to sit in a mix quickly, helping you build polished tracks without complex programming.
