Arturia V Collection 5 collection of virtual synthesizers

General

For the die-hard sound engineers among us, Arturia has developed this V Collection of virtual synthesizers. It contains the most desirable and treasured synthesizers that are now rare or virtually priceless. That's only the first advantage of this amazing investment, which contains virtual versions of the CS80 and the Jupiter 8, as well as famous synths by Sequential Circuits, Moog, and Oberheim. But, because music history is made up of more instruments than just these classics, V Collection 5 contains newer virtual instruments as well.

New in Arturia V Collection 5

We're crazy about the Synclavier, even though many have never even heard of it. It's an HD recorder combined with sampling and FM synthesis that was developed in the late 70s, early 80s. All the characteristics of electronic instruments that we take for granted today were considered nothing less than sci-fi back in those days! The fact that there was a very expensive price tag attached to the Synclavier made it only available to the wealthiest producers. In Synclavier V, you get the additive and FM synthesis to play around with, distributed over 12 partials. Where samples are concerned, the Synclavier has since been surpassed by software packages like Kontakt and Halion, which is why they are not included.

Other new titles

Besides the virtual Synclavier, there is a new virtual Hammond B3 and a Fender Rhodes Stage 73 included in Arturia's Collection. What's more, there's a Farfisa organ as well, and even a Piano (physical modelling). The main focus in this collection is quality, which is simply sublime. Boasting a happy marriage of both quality and quantity, the V Collection 5 contains sounds that can be used for any type of music production. Designing your own sounds is possible too, thanks to the intuitive graphic interface that's chock-full of control elements. Naturally, there is a wide range of factory presets built in so you can get started right away! In short: the Arturia V Collection 5 is a very practical bundle of high-quality virtual synthesizers that have earned their stripes in the past decades.
