Arturia V Collection 5 Gearslutz

We can't say enough good things about this incredible collection - it's one of the soft-synth collections by which others are held accountable. With Arturia V-Collection 5, you now get a whopping 21 synths and keyboards at your fingertips! The update also includes new pianos added to Piano V, which has been upgraded to version 2. Just when we thought things couldn't get any better, they did!

Arturia V Collection 6 takes the collection even further by adding four more instruments: the Buchla Easel, Yamaha DX-7, Clavinet, and most impressively, the Fairlight CMI. We were about to finish our review of Collection 5 when Arturia surprised us with the release of Collection 6.

With a rating of 3.7 stars, which earns it an outstanding rating of at least 4.5 stars, Arturia V-Collection 5 is an impressive collection of 17 synths and keyboards that boasts notable sonic and visual improvements over its predecessor.

Arturia has been in the business of recreating classic synths virtually for nearly 15 years, and some would argue that their virtual instruments are the standard against which others are judged. The company's commitment to improving their products is evident with each new iteration, as they continue to refine sound quality, interface design, and variety of synths in the collection.

The latest addition to this impressive collection is a digital recreation of the NED Synclavier, an iconic 80s staple of big studios that only a select few top-tier keyboard players had access to due to its astronomical price tag. With each new release, Arturia continues to push the boundaries of what's possible in software-based instrument design, and Arturia V-Collection 5 is no exception.

Overall, Arturia V-Collection 5 is an outstanding collection that sets a high standard for soft-synth collections everywhere. Whether you're a seasoned producer or just starting out, this collection has something for everyone.
