I'm several days late on this one due to Hurricane Ian, but it's finally done! In this video I demonstrate all of the new instruments in Native Instrument Komplete 14, which musical examples for each instrument. I also demonstrate a few of the expansion packs as well, but there are SO MANY of them I couldn't demonstrate them all. I also give my review of the pros and cons at the end. Timestamps are included in the description. Enjoy!

This is a very tiny point that doesn’t matter but they are all the same company now. So technically it isn’t third party content
Thanks for this. NI should be making this sort of video themselves. It's so hard to tell what is new in the package, what value the titles can provide other than NI's own lame descriptions. This kind of thing really helps.
Logic + Scaler 2 + iZotope + NI K14, is a absolute powerhouse production tool kit.

Your review was very helpful to me as a Korean student. Thank you.
What a Great & Komplete demonstration . The best I've ever seen ! Thanks be well Cya
Bro makes while ass songs for his demos. Thank you man I love u
Oh my god if only everyone would demo stuff like you, thank you for this
Thank you for this. I"ve been scouring KZread last week or so to help me decide if I go for K14 Standard update or Ultimate upgrade and this is the best video I've found. Love the way you break everything down by versions with a small demo. Fantastic.
ありがとうございます。自分が購入したものがいかに素晴らしい音楽制作につながれるか、ワクワクしてきます。 魅力をわかりゃすく説明してくださり、とても感謝です。たくさんある中から使いたいインスツルメントをかなり選べた気がします。たくさん学ばなくちゃね。
Super awesome demo! Really awesome instruments! Thank you so much, Josh, for making this one!
I think I would call this omnosphere 3 .. it's truly amazing for underscores .. it just fills up the space ... amazing and multi dementional Iam using it with Logic and Valhalla supermassive
Not just a logic issue, I work in pro tools and Kontakt has the same issue when trying to start or stop playback when it’s selected. Definitely something they should fix.
Timely vid. Just upgraded to K14 CE overnight and taking the grand tour. Great informative content as always MTHG.

Excellent demo, best on KZread. I'm going to get it for the 40s keys and drums. Thank you.
🔔I really appreciate your way of making your KZread channel! And this was no exception! Your really good! I feel like you are doing this for musicians not for sound engineers. I happen to be a musician! 😀Thanks! (I think I will do the NI upgrade) 🎶
Very good. Thanks for taking your time, helps me a lot!
The demos you’ve made are very very good!
thanks for explaining this new version of KOMPLETE 14
I loved this video. Thanks for the information and the demos ❤
Great as always. Thanks a lot🙏
It's quite good, isn't it. I agree with you re: Con 3. Because I can't find them I forget they are there. It'd be nice to be able to find them as easily as everything else.
great info like always
Well done! I’ll upgrade from Komplete 13 eventually 😊
Nice work on this demo 👌
Thanks you so much.
Looks like that spacebar playback problem may be an issue with Logic and not Kontakt. I just tried it in Cakewalk and it works fine.
Playbox sounds incredible...
hey man! which program do you use for komplete 14?
Great, it's time to upgrade.
Just installed it on my M2 iMac Air. Totally bummed that Absynth won’t work in Komplete on Apple silicone. Worse yet, I can’t seem to not load it as a plug in so when I click on an Absynth preset it brings up a warning dialog on the computer, dragging the entire workflow to a grinding halt. Edit: it does work as a stand alone, just not as a plug in (which means it’s just teasing you).
Thanks a lot 🤗
Could someone explain to me how I use these expansions? I just don't understand how to out them in my daw

You can find the expansions as part of Kontakt, Massive or most likely Maschine 2! Hopefully that's helpful for you, have fun
Thanks You For This Video
Thank you!!!
I purchased Native Instruments KOMPLETE 13 ULTIMATE Collector's Edition and wanted to purchase 14, is there a Native Instruments KOMPLETE 14 ULTIMATE Collector's Edition? And NI-Support for sales help?
so I haven't downloaded FL studios yet, Is everything you are using to make this already in FL studios? Or do I need a bunch of paid plug ins? sorry for newb question! Your videos definitely got me interested in producing better music!

I have a question. I have been using Komplete 14 select for a while now. Recently got an offer on Komplete 13 Ultimate Collectors Edition. Question is, will Kontakt 6 run properly without any problem or will Kontakt 7 player take over kontakt 6?
Are you finger drumming, brother? You're awesome 👌

Nope. I was using the step sequencer in Logic.
Just get the S49 and most of the plug-ins are included with 13.
Can you play more than one instrument on Komplete Kontrol program? I know you can do 1 instrumen and multiple effects

Why didn't you show the new look of Kontakt 7?
@MusicTechHelpGuy
Жыл бұрын
Because there's not really much of a difference between Kontakt 6 and Kontakt 7 visually. Everything is functionally the same, although I'm sure there are under the hood improvements. They moved the save, preferences, and interface/pane controls from the right to the left. The only thing that is new visually is the "content browser" but I don't use it at all, because it forces you to choose a preset within the instrument in order to load the instrument. I'd rather just load the instrument, then choose the preset from the instrument menu. It basically just gives you a big version of the side pane that is searchable by keyword.

Does anyone actually use the premade loops in this? Does this software appeal to players at all or is it all canned loops and rap beats?
@redbigapplefloppa302
Жыл бұрын
I rarely use ready made loops in my final project. But if i want to develop an idea for say a synth lead, i can slap loops on it to develop and build my own loop from the instruments down the road. But the loops itself are just a minor addition to the very versatile prpduction techniques and sounds you get out of this package
Just take my money
Idk... Lot of this is not needed to be honest. That drill lib for example you can't use anything I heard from here to build drill... A lot is for show and movie composing. You can consider to build some mainstream sounds.
It's called Ultimate, not Advanced, isn't it?

My problem with NI is that still everything sounds like a demo from a cheap Japanese synthesiser. There are small plugin makers (also free ones) who makes way better sounding stuff...

I agree. I rarely hear this point of view about NI's sound engine. I started thinking I was being too picky or I was the only one who noticed. It's like an overall degrade of quality when playing a high number if not all instruments and sounds. I can't place my finger right on it or articulate the character but I know it's not my setup because I've been putting up with it for over a decade and dodo me stays loyal and purchases Ultimate Collectors in search of the fun. They're marketing is amazing I'll have to admit.

And I do love many other aspects of their products. I have to take some of that back. They have some excellent sounding items but many just ok sounding as well. I think the high numbers of content / sound packs etc. they push out keeps sales up but I'd prefer they take a step back and focus on elevating the sound and efficiency going forward. Massive is used in countless tracks so take a play out of that book NI coders. I'm done now. Thanks for listening ya'll. Word!🙂

Wow!, I have been off the grid for 20 years with production and it appears NI, drum monkey, unison midi pack and the like 13:25 have watered down and cheapened the whole music production game. How do you really gage a persons talent? By how fast they can download and tweek sounds and patterns that others have already created and I thought sampling 30 years ago was cheating. Wow! I am speechless, no wonder people are selling beats/tracks for 1$ on some online site. It is going to all come to a implosion on itself…this software/AI/machine learning will soon completely eliminate the need for engineers, producers, musicians and even singers. What a freaking sad paradoxical irony. Now I now why so many A list engineers and producers are on KZread doing training video’s cause there bread and butter industry has been absolutely cannibalize by technology
