Notes on KOMPLETE 8 for users of KORE 2 / KORE 2 PLAYER

Thanks for the reply.

That is a "no" to question 1.

And means "You are F%&§ed" as answer to question 2.


Fazit: What a joke...a bad one.

(No Maschine integration, no new other fixes/optimizations for the products can be installed)




"Komplete after September the 1st" sounds scary..

 

It's not true, Komplete 7 will still work with Kore. The only thing that happens with the update is that you cannot directly open a koresound you made in Kore in the updated plug-ins outside Kore anymore and that you cannot open the updated presets in Kore. So you will only miss future presets in Kore. By not updating you will never have them at all.

The 1200 "new" presets are in the updates in the new format for free.

 

..new presets? Ok.

E.G. i load massive 1.3 and some FX in a slot and save it in Kore.
Kore will load the preset from the browser but with Kore-IE-Massive(older vers.) as plug-in?

 

you can only use Massive 1.3 as AU on Mac. The vst version doesn't work. But you can still use the old version in Kore in windows, it stays in the Kore folder. Even if you update. The internal version does not get updated.

 

Keir wrote, that the 2.1.3 comes updated IE.
Sounded to me Kore now loads all new versions.

After that 6-8 pages with complains.

I will see how it works...

 

no, the engines are updated compared to Kore 2.1.2 but compared to the vsts they are old. They will not update the engines beyond the koresound compatible ones.

NI has been vague, that's all.

 

(Compare kore to kore...i always compare Kore to the "normal Plug-in folder".)

I think they have to update Kore to new versions until a new "generation" like Massive 2 comes.

Or it doesn't work as expected, advertised, what ever...for me.

 

sorry but you really need to read the posts.

if you update Absynth, FM8 and Massive you will not be able to load those updates in Kore 2.1.3 unless you are on a Mac.

Kore 2.1.3 still loads the older versions of those plugins becuase it loads its integrated engines.

I agree but they are not going to. The updated vst's even crash Kore. I've posted a letter to NI in the facebook group saying how many Kore owners will not upgrade Komplete if they are not going to solve the issues, care to join?

I disagree, too many opinions and interpretations, no use to read all that

Thanks for your help. Thanks Sowari.

<--agreed

 

for one thing if you are uploading the updated VSTs in Kore 2.1.3 then you are doing the hack of putting the updated versions in the integrated engine folder. that makes Kore unstable anyway, and is not supported by NI.

no comment about your second point

This thread is titled "Notes on KOMPLETE 8 for users of KORE 2 / KORE 2 PLAYER". But Keir, will the Kore 2 Player be updated?

 

maybe you should ask that question in a new thread.
