When can we expect another discount as good or better than summer of sale?
I was saving some money to get the Komplete Kontrol Collector's edition but wasn't able to get it.
Well, it's not a big secret that these sales specials always happen twice a year, one in summer, one around thanksgiving/Black Friday/Xmas/Winter.
Is it possible to have a personal discount code for 2 more weeks? Please
Summer of Sound is the best that it gets when it comes to Komplete.
Black Friday will be next. Plenty of deals to be had there.

Last year there were some more limited sales on Black Friday and around Christmas Holidays. Not sure about discounts in these sales anymore. I expect next sales with similar offerings wills be Summer of Sound 2026.
Impossible to say what is discounted how much and when. This intertwines with the general plans and agenda of N.I. that we are not told. Also then general prices and variety of bundle offerings might become hard to predict with the fusion of Native Instruments and iZotope as well as the N.I. ownership of Plugin-Alliance then that might be reflected even more in bundle offerings.
I personally expect there to be bundle offerings again at least at the Cyber Sale , around Black Friday I think that it is , if not before. So far then more bundle offers has also been focused on bundling with the N.I. keyboards to make keyboard deals even more attractive , but to what extend that N.I. push that is impossible to foresee.
Finally then N.I. has also introduced the "NKS Hardware Partner Program" and started to give-away Komplete Select to those that has purchased partner hardware. Not only is that going to boost general bundle (upgrade) sales but might also influence some of the N.I. 'strategic decisions' which again might influence how things unfold in connection with sales.

All written here of course is only is my own speculations on the subject that I am sharing 🙂 (so purely 'speculations')
I bought it in the last day of the sale … I haven’t gone through anywhere near all of it but I’m already thinking I want to sell it .. I just don’t think I’m going to use a lot of the instruments.
Not sure how the land lays nowadays with licensing resale etc ..? I guess I may still decide to keep it but - if I do decide to sell does anyone know how to go about it ??
I understand I have to transfer the license through NIaccess portal..
Paid just over 1k for it.
Any info/offers/advice greatly appreciated.
Won’t be able to transfer for 60 days after purchase.
So you will have plenty of time to settle in with it.
The Komplete bundles , Standard and higher tier are the most economic way of getting the full version of all the N.I. apps. Also as for 'not using a lot of it then if you are using only part of it then it often is still the best deal to get the bundle because of the huge saving you get when buying the bundles.
With respect to any selling then you can not chop up the bundles and sell the parts so you would have to sell the whole bundle. If it is less than 60 days since that you added the product to account then you would have to get Support to help you if you want to release the bundle serial from account.
Otherwise then please use the N.I. Forum Buy / Sell / Trade for any buying or selling !

Quote Matt_NI : All you need to know about License Transfer
Thank you both for these helpful comments. I have installed all the products in the Bundle. The first few things that struck me was the action strings and woodwinds have preset rhythms and seem quite limited in their sound quality and textures.. perhaps I have more to learn here. They also take a few seconds to load (after buying a Mac Studio m2 I thought I’d never had to see a loading bar again)
The Alicia keys and uno piano (I think) seem just a little toy like rather than something you mi go t actually use for a production. I guess these might be textures to mix with other sounds that are actually used in pop songs more often than I realise.
I will explore more !
With respect to Kontakt instruments specifically then part of it is also exploring what tweak-ability the instrument offers , Alicia's keys has a 'Settings' section where as Piano Uno have nothing other than what is at the initial UI screen that I noticed. In Kontakt 8 then worth noticing is also the new Tools section.
If you want, we can set up a transfer, I would like to buy it from you. Is it the Collectors edition?
Is it possible to have a personal discount? I'm gearing up for this years work, If possible i'd rather not wait until next summer of sale.
