    Thanks for the response PoorFellow. I couldn't find any information with anyone having the same detection issue lets call it hence me asking. I think I will add another dedicated NVME for Komplete with a fresh install and take it from there. I have been meaning to do it for a while to be honest. I wasn't sure if there was a fixed one time gate keeper price on the first upgrade from Standard to Ultimate kind of thing. The normal pricing is as you say and not a problem.

    I will add the drive with a fresh install and take it from there. Worst case scenario I can always pick it up on version 16 or the next sales so it feels less of a hit on the pocket. It was more the hassle of adding the drive etc that put me off over the £89 difference to be honest. It's a bit of a chore :)

    Thanks PF.

    As far as I remember, the base product used is always the oldest one available in your account.

    Btw: this new page (see picture) makes it more difficult to see and understand the various upgrade/update paths.

    Probably it has been realized to propose directly the best price available for the user, but I find it less transparent (and useful). For at least a couple of reasons.

    First being that if someone wants to use a different path (maybe even a more expensive one, maybe because he plans to sell the bundle he already has and use another one as base product), this page not showing all available paths makes things more difficult (if not even not possible).

    Second is that NI website is not famous for never failing in proposing something.

    Yeah , I do understand with respect to the 'a bit of a chore'.

    Anyway , if you still want to see if N.I.Support (all) will let you swap the Standard update for the Ultimate upgrade for the difference in price then you ought to ask while your purchase is very recent. As I wrote then I don't know what they will say but it shouldn't hurt to send a polite inquiry and ask 🙂

    Unfortunately I was not able to get through, or get a reply. Was looking at Izotope Music Production Suite, or maybe to move from Ozone 11 Standard to Advanced. The price for the former has now increased while the latter is unchanged, though both now show an Update as well as a Full price.


    I already have Ozone 11 Standard through Kontakt 15CE. Not clear if that enables the update price or a Crossgrade - though apparently not as only Full goes into the basket if either is selected. And either way I cannot get the voucher code and the price of MPS7 has gone up 😢

    That's what I'm seeing pretty much. At least I know nothings off at my end. It's the first time I have noticed it to be honest.

    Thanks LostInFoundation

    I might just do that PF. I'm going to nip out and grab another drive tomorrow and take it from there. :)
