You'd think they'd've learned after everyone complained about the VC series requiring GuitarRig.<br /><br />Komplete9 *Ultimate* has all the other new stuff, like the excellent Softube plugs, but even still...<br /><br />The Battery Upgrade even needs more to sell it than "hey look we rolled in our SSL-emulating compressor and changed the colors" for it to be a worthwhile upgrade, especially considering what FXpansion and MOTU are doing with competing products. Maybe they're holding back on the marketing (the two pages devoted to it on their website was pretty uncharacteristically slim).
