anyone done this? a bit more cost effective than $599.
That looks interesting.

What I'd worry about is do you have the necessary OSX version to run the current revision of Kontakt 5? For none of the systems you seem to have you don't mention what OSX you have. You're going to need at least El Crapitan or higher to run the current Kontakt 5. PT10 won't run there and you revision of PT11 won't either. EC support wasn't added until PT 12.3.

Considering the above you're going to be spending more money than just for the Komplete s/w. As well as updating your OSX and you don't want to use EC as it's considered the worst OSX version in quite a while (if forever).
