"Don't get hyped up!!"

Feature:
Thi software is really vesatile!!

Quality:
Yes!! it it's true this thing is really buggy but if can make it work then maybe it might be worh it!

Value:
Very expensive!! great sounds but considering that your basically buying a bug instead of a real software it might not be worth it for others!

Desirability:
Now that I own it, I wish I hadn't been caught up with the hype on this software cause it can get on my nerves sometimes due to the bugs!!

Sound:
Sounds are limitless although they seem to have the same quality of sound to them still better that most softsynths out there!!

Support:
You can just foget about it, it doesn't exist!!

"GREAT SOUNDS!! EXTREMELY BUGGY!!"

Feature:
Buggiest software I even encountered in my life!! My Dual 1.8 G4 crashes everytime I open a complicated ensamble.

Quality:
Again this software is extremely buggy it can ruin your computer, I am not joking just read the reviews at other sites on how buggy this thing is and it will be enough to convince you to avoid this damn software!!

Value:
This software doesn't work for DP4 so I basically paid $470 for nothing avoid if planning to use in OSX doesn't work at all; the people at Native Instruments are a bunch of liers; false advertising about OSX compatibility doesn't work at all what a waste!

Desirability:
I already sold my copy on eBay, this software is extremely buggy not worth the money and headache, even though it has great sounds.

Sound:
Unbelieveable versatility of sounds!!

Support:
Native Instruments leaves you alone once you buy their products!! Horrible customer support!!Won't even release new updates to fix the problems, I really hate NI!

Overall:
I will probably buy this sofware agian in the future maybe when REAKTOR 5 comes out cause it has great sounds no doubt, but for now this thing is just plain horrible, it will ruin your computer and you will end up spending most of your time trying to fix it instead of making music, not worth it at all!! TRUST ME!!!
