The world's leading collection of sounds & ideas for music production
Native Instruments KOMPLETE 13 is the first port of call for budding sound designers, producers and dubbing artists: the package contains over 36,000 different sounds totaling 320GB, as well as a myriad of presets, beats and MIDI grooves that can be used to inspire your own creations or underpin your ideas. On the included Kontakt 6 (sampler) and Reaktor 6 (synthesizer) platforms, KOMPLETE 13 lets you achieve almost any sound you can imagine, customize it to your needs, or access the presets directly; no matter what genre of music you 're in, or whether you consider your arrangement a pre-production to be recorded later, or if you want to release KOMPLETE's sounds in your production.

Komplete 12 Select also comes with the Kontakt and Reaktor players, which are host platforms for Native Instruments and third-party libraries. All Native Instruments libraries are integrated via these players to guarantee an efficient workflow. Libraries are displayed clearly and freely sortable in Kontakt, ready for your next project.

If you are in any way creative with music, regardless of the genre you work in, the people at Native Instruments have you covered...and then some. The samples are exquisite, absolutely top-notch: you simply will not find better anywhere. I’m a songwriter and the guitar is predominantly my main instrument, having been playing for the best part of fifty years I’m very good - that is not boasting, it is a fact (I should be good after all these years!). But I could never match the quality of the guitars -electric or acoustic- on offer within Komplete 13, either in ability or sound.
I was slightly reticent about the cost to begin with because, let’s be honest here, it is not cheap. But then you don’t get to have a reputation as good as these people have by selling shoddy, second-rate stuff, so I took the plunge and it’s been arguably one of the best decisions I have ever made - and I mean it.
