Arturia FX Collection 2 Demo and Review - FX I Actually Use!

[@skelhain]

Thank you for the great overview! One question, yes, I'm quite new to this: Is bus force considered a channel strip for replacing multiple plug-ins to reduce CPU usage?

[@RonnieVaiArovo]

Those Modulation effects look and sound sweet. Good thing my Juno 6 Modulation VST is still working, otherwise I might been convinced 😉 👍

[@mojophonic]

Mike... I could listen to your calm, informative, Aussie-tinged explanations all day long. So cool. I must try parallel processing some time.

[@paulgrooveside2803]

Mike, I really appreciate your clear and straightforward explanations of music technology in your videos. This one is very useful and informative. Thank you!

[@CreativeSauce]

Thanks Paul!

[@michelnassarofficial]

Awesome 😍😍

[@CreativeSauce]

Thanks 🤗

[@pentapandamusic]

It will be great if there is with vs. without comparison

[@BDWoodruffmusic]

Thought I better re-watch this since I won the collection. Thanks, Mike!

[@LincolnAlice]

I had been considering the FX Bundle, and today I see three new videos on FX Bundle 2! Probably be buying this today. You can't really go wrong with Arturia. Thanks for the video, you are a wealth of information. Appreciate you! -- Lee

[@CreativeSauce]

Hope you enjoy it! Thanks for watching :)

[@joelrene1559]

100 for all 22 plugins until 16th, you can’t go wrong!

[@danielmconnolly7]

I will be getting the Arturia MKII which comes with Analog Lab.

[@PendelSteven]

20:00 That's still subtle for in a trance track, for example. See? It all depends which genre we are talking about, ultimately.

[@guidomartin1017]

Thanks for this wonderful video! I love this analog sound & this analog design. 👍 😍

[@PendelSteven]

I won't lie, I'm watching this, because Arturia has announced V-Collection 9, which made me realise and ask myself: am I missing out on FX Collection?

[@CreativeSauce]

Gotta say, some of these are a part of every project for me!

[@TerenceKearns]

I had V-Collection 8 and so they offered the FX3 collection to me for 100 euros so I grabbed it. I think it's normally 400. Well worth it if you can afford.

[@PendelSteven]

@@TerenceKearns Yeah, took advantage of that myself this morning. I'm now actually updating my V-Collection, since apparently those weren't updated yet :)

[@redcomn]

I've just watch their website yesterday but i missed this

[@CreativeSauce]

Literally a few hours old :)

[@usedusermoser]

You flamin galah matey 🤣

[@karma_moths]

Great video man! I have to say what a fantastic selection of analogue based plugins they are. For the price If I was just starting out I'd probably skip the UAD ecosystem and go for something like this. Awesome stuff

[@timweinheimer1]

Arturia keeps amazing me. I have been buying their plug in effects & virtual synths for the last 7 years. They just keep getting better.Thanks for your insight always great to hear different peoples insight into Arturia plug ins

[@BorderRebels]

Good, clear & musical demos; thank you!

[@CreativeSauce]

My pleasure:)

[@samxday]

That spring reverb is great. Especially like the pre-amp

[@alban6101]

Hello Sir, As i'm watching, i'm thinking about the fact that it is BLACKFRIDAY todayS !! And, i'm waiting few days so that i'll have enough money to buy the whole FX collection for 50%, at the begining of the month, wich is AMAZING, as i need such tools... ! Besides, Arturia has the good idea to propose such prices until the 8 of december ! Finally, thanks so much for all your workS on ur chanel. Nowadays, i can't imagine one day without watching one one ur post, wich are making me always thinking : Stay safe, U and ur friends. Alban, from Nancy, FRANCE.

[@stephenroldan5107]

If dont have it yet. Use splice to buy it. Its rent to own. Full featured licensed. Bought both this and v collection.

[@paulsgotgas7307]

Arturia does it again, and the intro/upgrade price really is an offer we can't refuse!

[@crossfadersr]

arturia is goat

[@spectralknights2]

How much is the upgrade price?

[@DileepaMangala]

Thank you for the detailed video.

[@music_creator_capable]

Hey!

[@mimojapan]

Oww, gotta check that out, Cheers!

[@CreativeSauce]

Have fun! Also - remember to sleep :)

[@mimojapan]

Uhhm, seems the "link" button was not enabled back at these shelf testings at 3:33 - 5:33 :D

[@CreativeSauce]

@@mimojapan - yeah, I was using a pre-release version here, some minor bugs.

[@iamALPA]

Great video!

[@danielmconnolly7]

👏👏👏

[@fjlamela]

As always, these companies make very nice graphical interfaces with questionable sound quality. These plugins, like almost all of this company, have a quantity of aliasing at 44100 Hz and 48000 Hz that makes them not very usable (at least for me) in a real way. There are alternatives from small developers, who achieve aliasing levels close to analog audio. This is not the case with the plugins of this company.

[@misterniceshoes2888]

Aye it's a shame they don't have oversampling. I think there is no excuse in this day and age. I run 96k these days to minimise alising in plugs that don't have filtering. Obviously no all plugs need it but when you have analogue emulations modeling saturation oversampling is a must.

[@fjlamela]

@@misterniceshoes2888 I totally agree

[@tavaresmanuel3523]

@@fjlamela with that being said what’s the point of getting this if it stand out uniquely from similar plug-ins from different companies ? It just seems like I can do everything with the stock plug-ins in any DAW. My ear isn’t trained so maybe I have more to learn but it’s just an observational question.

[@fjlamela]

@@tavaresmanuel3523 Indeed you can do almost everything with the standard plug-ins in any DAW. Especially thinking that many of the plugins that are sold are not optimized as I have commented previously. Aliasing in plugins during the years 1999-2011 has a logic due to the low processing power in the cpu's. In 2021 that plugins have that level of aliasing is nonsense and really a deception to users. It is not only necessary a trained ear but also a correct listening chain: Acoustically treated listening room, monitors, converters ... However, the aliasing of many plugins is more than evident when listening to them even without having an optimal listening environment.
