Traktor (Scratch) Pro....a mixer, 4 sound cards, 5 controllers, one that's brand new.
Maschine....5 controllers, lots of bundled plugins, plus VST, AU, RTAS, and AAX versions of the application.
Komplete..."75 products", 3 controllers, a sound card (if they still make the KA6), Maschine integration, compatibility with every DAW that supports VST, AU, RTAS, or AAX plugins. So, that part alone is more like 225 products and over a thousand combinations that could have issues.
Serato
A handful of plugins in a few formats.
One updated DJ product.
A couple dozen plugins (in-app purchases).
Roughtly 3 pieces of hardware that they make.
And compatibility with a bunch of stuff, but not nearly as much as Komplete.
I'm sorry, but NI makes more stuff and has more to test. Period.
It's been that way for a while.
