It sort of feels like someone in marketing felt pressure to pump Komplete advertising and used this new synth as the lever. I listened to the demo and didn't hear anything special, and even if it does sound great its still monophonic (which usually means too CPU hungry to run well polyphonically).
Well if you plan on getting it I don't think it will get much cheaper. Even at $559 for the full version you are getting a LOT of bang for your buck. All that stuff for less than half the price of a virus snow!
At $149 for the upgrade you get a new synth, totally reworked battery (which I use a lot) the studio FX , session strings etc. Really not a bad deal at all me think's.
