Arturia V Collection 9 Reviews

Arturia v collection

A must companion for those who cant afford to own vintage synths. Each instrument sounds as close to the original as i have ever heard. A+

Best collection out there

I was researching a few synth collections from other companies. Since I strongly oppose any subscription based software (apart from entertainment), Roland was straight out. Korg Collection was interesting, but underwhelming for the price.

Arturia nailed it with this one. I got the V Collection 9 on sale, but it is well worth its regular price. The software works flawlessly - tested on Cakewalk and Reaper.

And there's the sound...

Every synth sound immaculate, real, Mini moog recreation can crush walls ;). Vintage sampler recreations - Synclavier, Fairlight and Emulator are true gems here - these guys can even read original disk images. DX 7 recreation is (optionally) noisy as I remeber it was ;) and it can read original Sys-Ex data, of course.

Even the modelled Piano V (which has mixed reviews, to my surprise) with a bit of tweaking can sound realistic, both solo and in the mix. B-3, Stage e-piano, Wurlitzer, Mellotron, Farfisa, Vox and Solina are all uber-fantastic.

And don't forget Arturia's Augmented VOICES and STRINGS - a really nice touch and very usable instruments as well.

All of these synths are very easy to tweak, tutorials are included in each. Plus for adding arpeggiators and effects processors to most of them - as you can see, the collections very, very flexible and can be used in any music.

Arturia V Collection 9 is the best purchase I did for my studio. Worth it's weight in gold.

great for that 80s retro sound that you are looking for

These plugins are more than enough to keep you busy for a while. there is a lot to play around with in this bundle.

A nice to have collection - Synthesizers, vintage and beyond

All are tailor made to fit the company's keyboards.

To fit into the arbitrarily not arturia hardware there is a burden but it has the procedure (lengthy and copious) to match any keyboard.

Most machine parameters are accurate. Anyway the instruments may stand alone and some have modern sounds along with the vintage. Very nice! No issue, the sound good.

Brilliant Product

As I'm interested in instrumental electronic music but know I could never afford some of the greatest hardware synths out there. Arturia have blown my interest further. Some of my favourite artists like Jean Michel Jarre, Tangerine Dream, Kraftwerk yes all the analogue classics.

Now I can create my own versions of these sounds thanks to these beautiful products.

I particularly like the Synthi V synth in fact there all great.

Now I have my Mac, Logic Pro and some incredible software synths.

You won't regret this package buy it is awesome

Mindblowing quality at the price point.

After long time eyeing different VSTs from Arturia, I decided to buy the whole package.

Not a single regret - very nice UI with legacy/extended layouts; outstanding sound quality and recreations with some modern hints (may be purists will always point out the difference to the "real thing" but, hey it's a software synth package and Arturia did extremely well); pretty good resource management - some VSTs are a bit CPU hungry, but worth the simulations that are going on; licensing and installation runs smoothly and seamlessly (or you can take control per installation through the Software center if you want)

Solid 5/5

Excellent Pack !

This has replaced most of my synths !

The choices are almost overwhelming

I'm using a Roland A-49 keyboard, but no doubt one of Arturia's own keyboards would integrate fully with all the controls. Maybe one day I'll pick up a Keylab Mkii.

My homebuilt gaming PC has no problem handling the load, no matter how fast I switch instruments or options.

Best synth package in my opinion

Arturia have been killing it for awhile in the vst synth game and I've come in to thier ecosystem at a very lucky time. The sheer amount of updates and quality instruments they continue to add is astounding. If you are on the fence about this collection and don't own any of the v collections, definitely look into getting V collection 9.
