    I'd like to share this with people that as I, are struggling with the question if updating or not Komplete 15 EC or just update kontakt. I've just found clarity after I made this document, but has to be said that the decision also depends on whats your ground of expertise. Small producers might just need kontakt, or maybe even just buying some expansions. In a larger scale, for filmmaking o tv producers it might be worth to update komplete. It's not the same produce for a hip hop, pop or rock enviroment or soundtrack or film industry, coz you will or won't need all that stuff, so that said and with this pdf should bring light to your decision. Invest money vs waste it…

    Some packs or sounds may disappear others are just the same, in red new things in K15, in green thing from K14 that aren't in K15 🎶🎛️🎸

    I was under the impression that K15C included all of the expansions other than the ones released since it was released. So last year I sold a few of my licenses for old ones that I'd purchased independently (not in K bundles) thinking they would all be included in the latest K15 Collector's edition. I eat out in complete bundles and to my surprise I discovered that six of them I thought were long since included in Komplete are actually now marked "demo" in Native Access and I can't see any reference to them ever being part of other versions of Komplete.

    Can anyone confirm that these expansions have never been included in any Komplete bundles? I never imagined that there were expansions that weren't included that were old ones like these? (If so I guess I'll have to buy them back when there's a 5 for $50 sale.)

    Black Arc

    Dark Pressure

    Electric Vice

    Helios Ray

    Now

    Paradise Rinse

    Prospect Haze

    Resonant Blaze

    I know I had managed to acquire every single expansion before the release of K15 and I can't believe I may have inadvertently sold some I thought were included!

    @Peter Harris If we go by this list, then those were indeed never included in any Komplete release. Did you check your My products and serials area?

    "Now", however, was part of the Komplete Now subscription (now called 360) and is still available in 360.

    It appears as if the products were not included because they were products 'Created in association with….'

    The following says on shop page to have been created in association with Loopmasters.

    Prospect Haze : PROSPECT HAZE says that it was created in association with Rawcutz.

    PoorFellow: Very interesting catch about the "in association with" thing. Maybe those producers' agreements (especially Loopmasters) with Native instruments did not allow the products to be sold in bundles? I guess I'll just have to wait for the 9-for-99 sale to rebuy those.

    Monochrome: I just figured out the Now thing: it was a Massive X expansion.

    And oddly when I was looking for the current sale prices to potentially re-buy some of them, Prospect Hase was very oddly priced at $14.70!

    Thanks everybody for helping solve the mystery...
