yea they have been going this way ever since kore, they seem to want to turn their stuff into a computer based "workstation." I think this works for the gigging keyboard player or person making tracks for pay with short turnarounds, but for me at least it just makes for a complicated mess. Yes you can still get as deep as you want with individual instrument but I feel like Komplete is a needy girlfriend that requires to much thinking and managing to feel like bothering with sometimes :)
