Side installation is rather easily.
Since I installed demo versions of almost all products NI Kore 2 has indexed all patches product demo, and my real Kore 2 patches are lost among hundreds of other useless. Super.

Then we had to authorize the product. The NI Service Center is a good thing, the problem is to download any updates from the site of NI, it takes hours so it's slow. But never mind.

The manual is a strange prose that attempts to explain one worthy of the best French translators legged Hungarian how the plugin never show or screen shots, and using some terms used in the software. It's very fun.

I put 2 for the service center.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

For Mac Intel Core 2 Duo, I'm used to a stable software worthy of a Tibetan monk.

After allowing the product, I realized that I had only KoreSound and no Multisound (the equivalent performance in a multitimbral synth). It is quite surprising because in the demo site, it is clear that one type shows the presets that come with Multisound. I wrote to support, I got a response after 6 weeks told me that I had downloaded the update for Komplete KoreSound (I had not at that time) and I rebuild my disk permissions (I'm on mac). As a good customer, I did all that, I was added in 7500 VSTi presets that I have not, thus causing error messages every time I click on it. In short, I do not know how I can open the other and what I can not.
I reported this to support one month ago and a half, boosted two times, and I'm still waiting for a response. Strangely, I have no access either to support or forum, my account was disabled shortly after these emails. I am yet remained courteous ... not understand.

After all these adventures, and having given up on these great presets Multisound But I paid, I taste the pleasure of the notorious instability of this product. Many projects may refuse to open, for some reason. Sometimes yes, sometimes not. In short, the big foot.

This is unfortunate because this product full of tantalizing possibilities sounds of thunder ... when it works. And attention to the CPU, some patches use 30% of the resource of my Core 2 Duo 2.16 GHz! Huge!

I put one for sounds.

OVERALL OPINION

In short, do not buy it, it's really not a good deal.

Thumbs down. Anti creative, unstable, very poor support or no. I am very disappointed.
