arturia v collection 5 upgrade collection 6

V-Collection 6 belongs in any pro studio or keyboard rig, as there’s such a vast landscape covered by the synths. We really can’t say enough good things about this collection-this is one of the soft-synth collections against which others are held accountable. Now you get 21 synths/keyboards in this collection! It also adds a few new pianos to the previous Piano V, now upgraded to V2.

Just when we thought things couldn’t get better… they did! V-Collection 6 adds four more instruments: the Buchla Easel, Yamaha DX-7, Clavinet, and most impressive, the Fairlight CMI. Just as we were about to go to print with our review of Collection 5, Arturia stopped us in our tracks by releasing Collection 6. OVERALL RATING = 3.7 Stars, which earns it aģ.6 stars or better: Outstanding, WIHO AwardĢ stars or better: Suited to specific needs And with the expansion of the instrument collection came a digital recreation of the NED Synclavier, an ‘80s staple of the big studio that only a handful of top-tier keyboard players every had the opportunity to touch given its astronomical price tag.

And with each iteration of the product collection, Arturia has improved the sound, the interface, and the variety of synths in the collection.Īrturia V-Collection 5 is now an impressive collection of 17 synths/keyboards, with notable sonic and visual improvements over the previous collection. Though Arturia has unveiled quite a few hardware products over the last few years, they have never neglected their software roots.

Arturia has been in the game of recreating classic synths virtually for nearly fifteen years, and some would argue that their outstanding virtual instruments are the standard against which others are judged.
