Summer of Sound 2024

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Does anyone have any idea when the summer sale this year is going to be or if it is going to be this year. I've heard rumors that Komplete 15 will be released later this year. If so, what do you reckon that it will include? Is it worth waiting for that or should I just buy Komplete 14 now?

Should've been yesterday, I think. They offered a free iZotope Neuron 4 Elements license, but, I doubt that that's it.

I believe it's just around the corner

Hi. It starts today 28th May looking on some sites that have gone live with discounted products at 50% for Komplete.

hi,

So, there is not any particular bundled hardware/software combination ? For example, S61 mk3 standalone and K14 Standard standalone comes at same price value of S61mk3+K14S bundled. Is this correct ?

Hardware costs less at the shop than NI MSRP price. It does not make any sense to me.

No that is not correct, e.g. S61 MK3 = € 849 , Komplete 14 Standard (discounted) = € 299,5 , Total = € 1148,5

Kontrol S61 MK3 and Komplete 14 Standard bundle offer = € 1,048.50

You save € 100 on the already discounted Komplete 14 Standard by getting the bundle offer.

But you can get the bundle cheaper at e.g. Thomann.de : € 927,27 , they also give you Komplete 14 Standard at € 199,7 when with the keyboard so you save € 100 on Komplete 14 Standard both at N.I shop and at Thomann , only Thomann charges less for the keyboard.

@PoorFellow thanks for your kind reply.

I think I get the point. I own Komplete select. So I can upgrade to Standard for 199 already. If I buy a new keyboard, this is not taken into account. The same offer is made to everyone (old and new users/buyers).
S61MK3 costs 735 on Thomann. If I add my update to Standard=934 in total. 114 less then NI Summer of Sound. Also, buying hardware on NI website always costs 100 (more or less) more then retail shop. therefore, it would seem further explained.
Why you told Komplete 14 Standard discontinued ? Are you talking about upcoming version 15 ? In that case I would like more discount ! 🤣

Please, let m e know what do you think about it

cheers

Blast….I purchased Noire for £129 on Friday, could get Komplete Standard with it and loads more included for £179 now! I assume there is no way to get a refund on Noire then purchase Standard?

You could try to contact their support. No guarantees, of course.

Sorry but I did not write discontinued I wrote discounted and with that I were referring to that the price of € 299,5 given were a sale discount price , normally Komplete 14 Standard is € 599 .

We in the forum expect that Komplete 15 will arrive later this year which is supported by the offers on the present Summer of Sound 2024 sale. However you should not expect that there will be discount offers right away on Komplete 15 when it arrives. The present offers on Komplete 14 are nice but you decide if they are nice enough 😁

What chk071 , since you bought the "Noire" so relatively close to the sale then you could ask N.I. Purchase Support if it is possible. Most often I think that N.I. will say that you need to have bought closer to the sale to get a refund (like a day) (or two ?). But support are in charge of all such decisions and you never know if they are going to say yes so no harm in asking. I advise you to be polite when asking, no need to alienate not even if should they be unable to grant your request.

sale.

Since the Summer of Sound 2024 goes until July 8th, I think it is safe to assume that Komplete 15 (if it is to arrive this year) will not be announced until well after the Summer of Sound sale ends.

The present offers on Komplete 14 are nice but you decide if they are nice enough 😁

LOL, yes the consumer always decides on the value of anything that is up for sale. 😃

does anyone know the best way to contact support about my refund request due to price change?

i have tried chat but get no response past the AI robot and can’t find an email address, replying to an old ticket just says not monitored.

You are supposed to wrestle the AI bot until that you get through to open a ticket or you get through to chat : N.I. Purchase Support

Only support can help you but you need to open a ticket. if you can not open a ticket we can get someone to look into that but you still need to open a ticket.

Nice sale… those instruments at 19 € are quite tempting.
