"Arturia V Collection returns to the scene again and puts an even higher quality bar that seems impossible to improve in each incarnation. Here you will find retro passion, attention to detail, a respect for history, and features of sound visionaries..."
Future Music ES
"AWARD QUALITE/PRIX:
From B3 to CZ via Mellotron or Synthi, there is something for everyone. This is all the more true as Arturia has taken care to add really interesting features and treatments in each of these instruments. Not to mention the effects or modulation possibilities that already transfigure the instruments."
AudioFanzine
"The Mellotron V sounds very authentic! The Synthi V is a very interesting synth and it make a lot of fun with playing around."
Synth Anatomy
"The Synthi provides a fresh look at that with its semi-modular matrix setup. The TAE modelling algorithm they use really makes the quirkiness of the Synthi come out, to me. (...) The sounds I was creating with just a few clicks were really inspiring to me.
The CZ-V is a really cool addition. (...) I’ve never used one before, but I loved this software.
The Mellotron is a really cool element in this software (...) That’s pretty exciting!"
ANR
"Arturia managed to create a real emulation of Hammond organs. Plus, great Mellotron. V Collection 7 and new instruments bring this package to a new level."

"I'm impressed by how well SEM V captures the sound of Oberheim hardware, and its extended features make it more flexible than its namesake [...] SEM V is one of the most genuinely analog-sounding soft synths yet. If you love the sound of vintage synths, SEM V should be a part of your virtual rig."

"The SEM V is a gorgeous-sounding synth and, crucially, like the original it’s fairly easy to get to grips with. You don’t have to be a synth wizard to tweak and design sounds, and it’s a lot of fun when you play around […] The new features – arpegiattor, sub-oscillator and three modules - extend the functionality of the instrument even further, and will surely help you get more out of what is already an excellent synth."

"Arturia Jupiter-8V sounds fantastically 3D with the beautiful, rich low end and the famously buzzy quality expected of older Roland oscillators. The filters stay rich and sweet as they close down, my gold standard for how any synth sounds. I found Jupiter easy to blend with acoustic instruments in a way that never felt like I was "flattening" the mix."

"This softsynth is a total TEN STARS! The name Jupiter 8 is definitely within my galaxy of "Vintage Synths" but Arturia has completely knocked this synth eons into the future and brought the Jupiter 8, perhaps the greatest analog synth of all time, from 1981 to 2007 and beyond with the incredible add-ons. With their careful, meticulous attention for preserving the true nuances of this synth and then by adding visionary and complementary modules to the Jupiter-8V; I truly believe that this softsynth should be in everyone's collection for one simple reason...

"An instrument with a great sound, very expressive, easy to use, beautiful to see, with a lot of new features and an inspirational charm, a very low CPU load - unlike many other VSTi - and it's also not expensive... so what are you waiting for?"

"The Jupiter-8V is a worthy addition to the Arturia family. It sounds superb, is easy to customise and a joy to play. - MusicTech Excellence Award -"
Music Tech Magazine
"The Jupiter-8V maintains the standard we have come to expect from Arturia. it's a beautifully warm and expressive synth that's equally at home in pop tunes or experimental sound design. The overhaul of the presets management system and the addition of the user-friendly sequencer and effects make the instrument immediately accessible to beginners as well as experienced users, which hasn't always been the case with these complex synths."
Music Tech Magazine
"What we have here is a big synth with a big sound and a big appetite. Rest assured, though, that the Jupiter-8V is well worth the processing power - this is arguably Arturia's best effort yet. -Computer Music Performance Award-"
Computer Music
"Arturia has done the original Jupiter-8 justice. Not only has the company captured the original instrument's essence and character, but have upped the ante by adding new and creative touches that expand the reach of its sound.
As far as I'm concerned, this is not only the strongest analog emulation on the market, but is quite possibly the best soft synth I have yet encountered. Once hooked up with a good control surface, this could be the only virtual analog you'll ever need - and it will definitely be my go-to instrument of choice in the future."
EQ Magazine
"Arturia has done it right. They've teamed up with Bob Moog, researched how to best emulate the sometimes quirky nature of analogue circuits via TAE, and had talented artists and sound designers create some great patches."

"The Modular V is a powerhouse that models the old hardware to a tee, producing rich and beautiful tones that compare favorably to a real Mg system. If you're looking for a top-quality software synth that really does sound like the analog hardware it claims to emulate, look no further than Arturia's Modular V. This powerful tool is good enough for Bob Moog, and I'll wager it's good enough for you, too."

Raveline
"A stunningly realistic recreation of the legendary MiniMg synth. Every electronic musician should have one!"
Mac Format
"In terms of sound quality, the CS-80V is absolutely divine. It's a first-rate-analog-style synthesizer with a wealth of detuning and modulation possibilities that allow you to cook up truly retro sounds-if that's what you're looking for. On the other hand, thanks to the sequencer, stereo delay and multitimbral aspects of the instrument, the CS-80V can sound as up-to-date as your programming chops will allow. The filters have plenty of bite - so much so that you have to watch for clipping. And I particularly like the implementation of the ring modulator, suboscillator and Touch Response features, which enable you to add weird little subtleties to a sound."
Remix
"The Modular V software is an absolute bargain piece of software, especially in light of the ultra-high prices of the real hardware [...]. Its great audio quality, flexible patching and interesting performance options are bringing a new level to audio."
Recording
"Endorsed by Bob Moog himself, Modular V probably comes as close as any software to re-creating complex analog synthesizer hardware, and it does it on a large scale. It runs standalone or as a plug-in for a variety of formats."
Electronic Musician
"Aesthetics and programming considerations aside, there's no doubt that the CS-80V captures the classic analogue sound of the original instrument. The additional features Arturia has added stands the virtual instrument well above the original hardware version. Arturia has taken all the good bits, enhanced them, and created a classy, high-quality synth with great appeal to those with an interest in analogue synthesizers."
Music Tech Magazine
"The MiniMg is one of the most desirable and sought-after classic synths [...] the Mini V largely impressed us. It sounds great (if not quite Mg-great), has an excellent sound library and, once you learn what the badly-labelled knobs on the portly interface do, is easy and satisfying to program."

"Managing to perfectly capture the charm and unique sound of the original hardware, the Mini V can be used either as a plug-in or in a standalone mode [...] The Mini V is one of the most exciting and enjoyable vintage synth emulations ever to be released."
Macuser
"The MiniMg was one of the easiest synths to program - undoubtedly contributing to its popularity - and Arturia's version is no less approachable."
Music Tech Magazine
"For anyone wanting the elusive MiniMg sound from a software synth, look no further [...] Arturia Mini V delivers the sonic weight and complexity of its namesake, without the hassles of a vintage instrument. "
Remix
"When it comes to copping "that" sound, the Mini V does not disappoint, and it then builds on that solid foundation with some new twists to the original MiniMg that most of us could only dream about years ago. [...] If you really enjoy twisting the knobs and getting your virtual hands "dirty", I very highly recommend the Mini V. You at least owe it to yourself to download the demo version and see if you get those same chills up your spine that I got when I first got my hands on it. If you crave that classic Mg sound, I don't think you'll be disappointed. Har"
Grooves Magazine
"Arturia turns a classic synthesizer into a superb piece of software [...] This is a great product that will appeal to fans of the original ARP 2600. Beginners, however, may well find it a little bit confusing, but persevere! ARP2600 V sounds authentic and can accurately recall complex sound patches. A major achievement. "
Mac Format
"A few obvious advantages of the 2600 V over the original hardware unit cannot be overstated.[...] For us it has become an immediate favourite -- a very worthy addition to anyone's virtual synth collection. "
Music Connection
"So how closely does the 2600 V reproduce the flavour of the original? [...] So while I can't attest to how truly authentic at waveform level Arturia's True Analog Emulation methodology is, I can definitely say that the 2600 V does seem to very successfully capture much of that specific Arp "flavour" in terms of oscillator and filter "punchiness [...] If you're fairly synth-savvy, or if you already know your way around the original Arp 2600, then with its flexible semi-modular approach as well a new extended modulation routings, the 2600 is recommended for a wide array of classic analog sounds both as an instrument and as source of wild sound effects."
Grooves Magazine
"At a glance at the back of any Arturia box reveals that these developers are serious. The stellar line-up of electronic musicians whose photos appear on the cartons is like a synthesist hall of fame, and they're not just there to endorse the instruments - they're also responsible for the presets. [...] Some of the best patches come from Arturia themselves. Not for the first time, Jean-Michel Blanchet proves himself to be one of the best programmers in the business with his tumbling sequences, blistering leads and smooth pads. [...] if you've ever coveted the original ARP 2600, picking this up is a no-brain. If you've never heard of the original, you still might find the 2600 V to be an excellent way to ease into modular synthesis. It's another winner from Arturia."

While it does not sound precisely like an ARP 2600, it offers much more than the original. Given the cost of buying a vintage ARP 2600 and 1601 Sequencer, 2600 V has to be worth serious consideration."

Future Music
"Thanks to the Arturia 2600 V and Way our Ware TimewARP2600 virtual synths, not only is the 2600 sound available again in an inexpensive and easy-to-find package, but the Arturia version features a recreation of the 1601 sequencer. [...] As an ARP 2600 reproduction, Arturia's 2600 V comes tantalizingly close. [...] as a modular synth with a built-in analog sequencer, the 2600 V positively rocks! It's got that definitive Arturian warmth with oodles of modulation options and is perfect complement to a rig that already has a few more traditional virtual synths. "
Keyboard
"The system requirements are moderate by current standards and the results you get from the 2600 V are fantastic. Somehow it just sounds more authentic, more instantly gratifying than many other virtual synths. Given the scarcity of the real thing, this is as close as most of us will ever need to get to owning a real ARP2600."
Music Tech Magazine
"I'll just summarize by saying that for both novices and experienced users alike, Arturia's revamping of ARP's classic synth looks and sounds incredible; it is stable and efficient; and it shouldn't get boring for a very long time - if ever."
Remix
"The ARP 2600 sounds awesome -even if you don't explore outside of the presets. It does tax your processor though, and quite heavily if you've got an ancient computer (two years or older). While the ARP 2600 may be a retro concept, Arturia's emulation sounds as futuristic as the original did when it came out. "

"There have already been numerous soft synths purporting to emulate the Prophet 5, and I have not been impressed by any of them. Arturia have created something closer to the original than any of these, and I am confident that Prophet V will continue to improve. Furthermore, by creating this strange marriage of the Prophet 5 with one of my all-time favourite synthesizers, the Prophet VS, the company have shown the imagination needed to take their offering way beyond those of their competition."
Sound On Sound
"Arturia has done a frighteningly good job of capturing the beloved gritty characteristics of this American-made classic. Being the first polyphonic analog synth, the Prophet 5's sound was all over records from '80s artists like Talking Heads, INXS, and Gary Numan, and as such, the presets do well to cover the sounds used in those days. However, Arturia includes emulation of the Prophet VS and a hybrid mode, meaning this synth goes far beyond churning out throwback fare. Certainly a great all-around plug-in that especially excels with leads and percussive sounds."

"Arturia, a company that made a name for itself with Modular V and CS-80V, is the first company to produce an accurately detailed MiniMg emulation that runs native, without the need for additional hardware."
Electronic Musician
"So just how close has Arturia got to emulating such a classic monster? I think they've done a superb job with just the right balance between faithful re-creation and modern elaboration. [...] The CS-80V is a phenomenal machine."
Future Music
"It's undeniable that the V is the best basic MiniMg emulator ever"
Future Music
"If some synths are destined to stay with us forever then probably the daddy of them all is the MiniMg"
Future Music
"Fully endorsed by Mg Music, The Mini V is a faithful recreation of the original, though it adds polyphony, MIDI management, preset handling, a modulation matrix, an LFO, an arpeggiator, a chorus and a delay - all thanks to the power of modern technology, of course."
Music Tech Magazine
"It's undeniable that the V is the best basic MiniMg emulator ever"
Future Music
"Overall, the CS-80V is a wonderful sounding synth, capable of producing warm analogue sounds, from fat basses and leads to complex, organic sounding textures that would be ideal for atmospheric film music. It costs a fraction of Yamaha's original."
MacFormat
"The CS-80V is a killer soft synth. It's been over 25 years since the CS-80's introduction, and it remains a sought-after powerhouse to this day."
Keyboard
"A perfectly emulated ultra-rare synth that -quite simply- sounds different. There's a place for its smooth strings in every track."
Future Music
"An awesome synth which takes the Oberheim classic and expand it into a versatile all-rounder"
Future Music
"As a straight emulation of the classic SEM sound, the SEM V ticks all the boxes, but the software has so much more to offer when you explore it in greater depth : small but effective additions to the SEM design, advanced voice editing features and, of course, an excellent polyphonic mode. The range of sounds available is much greater than the SEM name might suggest, covering classic Oberheim ground and much more, and this makes the SEM V a great synth in its own right."

I first heard about Arturia when reading an interview with Joe Goddard from Hot Chip. I had always marvelled at the rich synth sounds on their first couple of records, and assumed (naively) that they used a lot of analog synths. Scouring ithe net I came across this interview where Joe mentioned that they had used the Arturia Modular V emulator almost exclusively on some of my favourite tracks - which meant that maybe I too could get some of those sounds without having to spend thousands on hardware. Investigating that one synth then led me to all of Arturia's products, which are uniformly well-designed, intuitive and fun to use.Tim Shiel

Arturia is leading the pack in effectively allowing you to pull up the biggest and the baddest synths in the history of electricity inside your DAW. We can't say enough of how impressed we are with the Jupiter-8V, ARP2600 V, CS-80V and the Mini V.The Crystal Method

A lot of people ask us how we are able to afford all these old vintage synths we use in our songs. In fact we use mainly the Arturia V COLLECTION to create our music. It´s just incredible how* *authentic they sound and how easy they are to use.Suicide Booth

The synths sound so great. I'm a purist, and I wouldn't use them if I didn't think they were that good. I'm not saying that we are not using analog instruments anymore but the analog synths are primarily what we are using now.Steve Lindsey

Without the Arturia V-Collection I simply could not do what I do. Whatever style I am working in, whatever I need, I find it in the V-Collection, and in abundance. The depth and power of the sounds is simply breathtaking. There is no question, Arturia ROCKS!Soul Seekerz.

Arturia has played a heavy hand in defining the sound of Crew Love. These plug ins come so close to the real thing, they’re practically a demo for the outstanding vintage synths they represent. The Prophet V has been our go-to soft synth for driving bass lines, and the Oberheim for that never-ending palette ideas. Before we owned real Jupiter 8’s we practiced and learned the functionality on the Jupiter-8 V2 soft synth. But it would take an octopus in the studio to control all the automation you can with this incredible software!Soul Clap

V Collection has literally saved the album I'm writing with Jon Anderson by replacing a room full of many of the original synths I was using with those that Arturia has modeled. The sounds in the V Collection stand up incredibly well next to the originals, with modern functionality that wasn't possible when they were made.Sean McKee

Arturia’s V-Collection is the best Soft Synth sound ever! I'm very happy about the whole package. It has changed the way I record and perform. Very impressive. You can hear on the new Spock's Beard album.Ryo Okumoto

The Arturia V collection has revolutionised the way I work away from my studio. Even when you have access to vintage synths, the Arturia collection is my first point of call, due to the speed that I can dial up my favourite settings. The sound is incredible and they're faithful to the originals. Now I have a Mini V in every hotel that I visit.Roots Manuva

If you are looking for a plug in version of your favorite old school analog synths, hands down, the V collection is what you want, better yet, what you need. Having access to the amazing sounds of the Arp 2600, the Jupiter 8, the MiniMg, and much more, all-in-one on stage, is a relief. Don't sleep on this one, get the V Collection.Ric'key Pageot

Arturia is leading the revolution of digital hybrid technologies in the audio spectrum of our age, and set the platform for truly amazing days for home and professional producers alike. The V-Synth collection is all you need to bring that classic ‘analogue’ realism back to the modern day workflow.Nathan Vinall aka Skynet

Arturia has managed to stick as closely as possible to the analog sound. There are no better products in my opinion on the market. This is a revolution because we can now create from anywhere with a record close to mythic instruments. And I am particularly proud that the company is from my hometown.Miss Kittin

The Mini-V and the Prophet-V are our go-to synths when we start a project. We particularly like that the Mini-V is so light and that both synths have nice filters allowing us to get those deep and soft sounds. The sounds we get out of the V Collection as a whole are just huge, deep and very wide. The challenge is to fit as many as possible in the mix.Men I Trust

Thanks to the Arturia V-Collection and its state-of-the-art TAE audio engine, the analog gems of the past are now accessible to every DAW user out there, which means a great deal of sound and attitude combined with all the advantages of today’s technology… All in all, a pretty nice addition to any studio, even when you actually work with real analog beasts as I still like to do.Martin Solveig

In order to stay inspired whilst writing on the road it's key for us to have access to a wide array of hyper realistic, analogue modeling soft synths. The V collection 5 gets closer to the real thing than anything else out there.Martin Doherty

I'm particularly excited to see Arturia bring the legendary sound of the EMS Synthi to a wider audience. Its aggressive edge stands out in an exciting way and cuts right through a mix - it's ideal for lead lines and featured arpeggios, just like its hardware namesake.Martin Doherty

It's always great to see new virtual instruments from Arturia. This time around I’ve been enjoying the CZ (not a synth I am entirely familiar with, and it seems I’ve been missing something!). But the Synthi V is a special treat - it looks much like an original Synthi A but under the hood there are more modulations not previously possible unless your original has been heavily modified. As my own VCS3 has… so I’ve been having great fun stacking Synthi V oscillators and feeding them into my VCS3 for a more Synthi-100 vibe! This will get a lot of use, I am sure.Mark Ayres

A while ago I searched all synths which are part of the V collection on Ebay in order to find out what people are currently willing to pay for machines like the Arp 2600 and the MiniMg. The price for all machines in total is ridiculous. The Arp 2600 is in example available for 10.000 $ if some one is willing to sell it anyway. So I can highly recommend the Arturia V collection to all curious producers who want to explore the infinite possibilities of the i.e. Oberheim SEM, Jupiter 8 and Prophet 5. Of course the original machines always have their special and unique charm but the way the engineers of Arturia virtually re-programmed the synths is simply breath taking and convincing. I use this bundle in almost every production of mine!Marc Romboy

I've been using Arturia products on a lot of projects. I put together shows in arenas and stadiums, and when I do that I need the sound to be much bigger than in a club. This is where Arturia products come in hand as they enhance the core structure of what I create for a show.Lionel D. Jarvis

Whether I'm playing live or in the studio, something from Arturia's V Collection always ends being used in the finished track!

The Arturia soft-synth's are the best sounding that I have used. The realism is incredible, they sound as good as the originals and being able to save patches saves so much time.

I’ve been using Arturia’s synths since they launched their first soft synth back in 2003. I own both software and original hardware for most of the replicas they made (Mini-V, Arp 2600, Prophet 5 and so on) , and I can say the only difference is that my original hardware needs maintenance every 6 months while the plugins are still working with no issues since 2003!Dusty Kid

I think you'll struggle to find a better value bundle than the V-collection. I bought it over a year ago, and ever since then, it's the first group of plugin synths I turn to for inspiration.

We are loving the new additions to the V Collection! The fact that they did not just perfectly remodel the classic gear but also add really powerful features like multi-stage envelope generators and complex routing options really open up possibilities that aren't possible in the hardware realm.

The V Collection is like a permanent xmas for anyone into synths and pianos.

I’ve been making dance music ever since everyone still had their old synths connected via MIDI to their Atari. Times have changed but I still look for that old analog sound. The Arturia synths come awfully close the original sound but without the hum and unwanted noises. They give you all the advantages of a plugin. The V Collection is now an essential part of my set up.Armin van Buuren

What I really appreciate about Arturia, are the sounds they developped for their synthesizers and their incredible realism. The pads are impressive, they give true dimension to the track you’re building. The ergonomy is brilliantly conceived and thought through, offers easy access and tons of possibilities to the user. ARP2600 V, CS-80V & the Mini V are must have synths !Antoine Clamaran
