Thank you for all the little backstories you provided for the instruments, it gave me a much deeper understanding of the instruments and contexts they can be used in, good work sir :)

Terminator 2 was Fairlight CMI 3 actually. The "Horn Falls" preset down a few octaves was the T-1000.

[@VenusTheory]

Must be wrong in the Wikipedia then 🤷‍♀️

[@kmv683]

The emulator ii was used in the first Terminator score. The orchestra hit from the factory disks was used for that signature "da da dun da dun!" In the theme 😎

[@umanoid1523]

I own Arturia V collection 6 and just picked up their FX and pigments during black Friday. I was excited to see they had a new updated collection but when I looked into my account at my customer price it's $300. A little steep for an upgrade and considering I own all of their software. I would have upgraded at $200. I love the Arturia sounds but don't end up using them as often as I'd like since they kill my old Mac pro CPU. I think I'll just wait until a sale and use that money towards Ableton 11. I've been doing some Beta testing and think my money would be better served going to the DAW I use everyday vs. The CPU hogs I don't use that often. Thanks for the review. I now have a better idea of how the new Plug-ins sound in a real world use case.

[@antonwitter]

Fantastic overview...And that voice 👌

[@rumtrax]

9:40 They actually said in the official launch stream from Arturia that JUP-8V is a total redesign and build from scratch.

The Jupiter 8 was my least used synth in the V collection for me but the updated version will get a lot of use! It sounds like a new beast

[@Highcastle_of_Tone]

This is a very practical basic demo. I love that you created tracks using only the sounds on the individual synths. Like others mentioned, very Stranger Things vibe on the Oberheim demo, and that's a high compliment. Arturia should offer you a job.

[@Rizamusic]

Stage 73 is killer. The new update though is amazing, it responds so much better to different playing styles. I have no idea how exactly they did that but I'm not going to question it haha.

I enjoy eating at Olive Garden. AMA. Also great overview! Might wait to pick it up but the additions look exciting.

[@VenusTheory]

Probably worth waiting for the next big sale as there are only a few new things. But, if you get in on one of the big Arturia sales (or wait a year or two and jump on a Black Friday) offer it'd probably have a ton more stuff to check out!

[@pepinillosazucarados6743]

OMG THANKYOU ARTURIA I ALWAYS WANTED AN EMULATOR II USED BY VANGELIS AND ENIGMA ETC ...

[@SyntheticFuture]

I got the OB-XA in the cross over sale with the V7 when it was just released. It's amazing and I love it. I will be skipping the V8 though. I don't feel like a vocoder (TAL Vocoder is free, Mvocoder is cheap), an electric piano (eh... it's not keyscape or something amazing. And I have the XLN electric piano already), the 300th Juno emulator and Jup-8 update that should be free as the old Jup-8 is rather underwhelming warrents the 150 USD upgrade price for a V7 + OB-Xa owner. The EMU would be fun but I honestly doubt if I personally would ever actually patch with it. The new analog lab might be cool depending on what they actually changed. But I'm holding out for V9 to get more value for my money.

[@madness8556]

Exactly my thoughts. I've upgraded from V Collection 3 through to V Collection 7 and I'm a tad underwhelmed with the upgrade to 8. It also doesn't help that Arturia don't appear to currently have a competitive upgrade price. I think that I'll also skip 8 and wait for 9.

[@ozzy3ml]

Nice jup-8 demo!

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@now_im_here3661]

I love arturia. I just bought v7 a few days ago. Everything looks alright, but not enought to push me over the edge to get 8. I'll probably wait til 9 or 10. That being said, thanks for the review!

[@VenusTheory]

7 is equally excellent. I'd maybe reach out to thieir support though - perhaps there's some kind of grace period given the black friday sale just happened. Otherwise though I mean V7 is well more than enough content to explore haha. Enjoy!

Great vid !

[@HernanvegaDeana]

how can i use my mic in fl studio for the vocoder?

[@KyseJ]

Is there an extended version that you made of the OB-xa?

[@grooveduststudio]

i wonder what the combined investment would be if you bought all these vintage keyboards? I can only dream of owning one but I already own V7 and plan on upgrading.

[@VenusTheory]

Haha I'd bet it's a few hundred thousand dollars or so. Not to mention the maintenance and upkeep, if you can even find the parts or fix them to begin with. A few like the Juno or Rhodes or Wurlitzer aren't too hard to come by and are in the price range of the 'average' musician I'd say, but yeah something like the CMI absolutely ridiculous.

[@mathmanmrt]

@@VenusTheory the fairlight was ridiculous from day one. the film department at my university had a fairlight and a dx7 for use in student film projects. i was in the music department which had a roland 100 series modular set-up but a friend of mine roped me in to help with music and incidental sounds for his film projects. the dx7 was so interesting especially with the level of control over the envelopes of both carriers and modulators but that little led display was such a drag. the cmi set the film department back like $30,000 which would be around $60,000 in current dollars. i'd love to tell you about my experiences with it but there was only one i had, which was the same every time i went to record something for my friend, which was nothing. i went down to the film departments sound studio about 8 times and the cmi was always broken and awaiting repair. one time he called me and said "come up this afternoon, they fixed it this morning." by the time i got there, maybe three hours later, it broke down again while someone was trying to upload crickets chirping into the system for use in a scene. i finally took to calling it the fairlight cmu--chronically messed up.

[@redmission1984]

Emulator II song was really cool!

[@bengsynthmusic]

Am over halfway into the Splice subscription. Guess I'd have to produce cash for the update. Too bad they took out Galaxy from the Jupiter 8V.

[@VenusTheory]

It's still there in a way with the combined modulators, so it's not totally lost!

[@wolfunplugged]

fantastic intro :-) - excellent review. I could get now the update from v3 at 99 bucks. should I do it?

[@angelolovato6739]

I found a used version of V collection 8.. WOuld it be compatible w my M3 pro ? THank you

[@steinhalvorsen_]

The Analog Lab 5 now has a measly 2000 presets compared to the 6500 presets of Analog Lab 4. When version six comes out we'll have 10 presets to work with! Hurray!

[@matttrent922]

quality not quantity. I would rather 2000 best of the best presets than 6500 not great ones. personally

[@steinhalvorsen_]

@@technober In V Collection you have 10 000, yes, but in Analog Lab they have reduced the amount of presets for every release. And when you don't have access to the entire synth, you rely on the presets as starting points. I don't think Arturia would reduce the amount because they think most of their presets suck. After all, they have all 10 000 in their flagship product. I think it's simply a marketing strategy to make owners of Analog Lab feel like they don't have a product that is good enough on its own and are missing out by not buying the full V collection. And that doesn't sit right with me since owners of Analog Lab should feel like they get an upgrade and not a downgrade when they pay to get the most recent version of their product.

[@steinhalvorsen_]

Here's what the copy on their website said for Analog Lab 4: "Your go-to choice for inspiration, creativity, and performance. Over 6500 amazing presets, from over 30 classic keyboards, intuitive controls, and seamless integration." Here's what it says now for Analog Lab 5: "With Analog Lab V, you’re spoilt for sonic choice. Its library of 2000 presets and patches has been curated to cover every musical style in the book - and a few that aren’t." Not exactly what I'd call an upgrade for a product that relies on presets.

[@torta122]

Stein Halvorsen Try calling them and ask them to refund or get you back to your old version.

[@RayyMusik]

I’m so sorry for you. In fact it‘s really hard to make music with a measly 2000 presets. Except for pianists who have got just *one* preset. 🎹😉

[@justinrodriguez1900]

So if you purchase the V collection 8, do you have control over the parameters you see on the synth? Or do you only have control over the specific effects Arturia let’s you control? I have the free version that comes with Arturia Minilab where you can’t control any parameters on the synth GUI itself

Yes, you have control over the parameters.

There is some factory content actually! And, you can import your own samples too if you want or have some recordings of the old libraries. Not sure if there's any way to add original patches but you might ask Arturia support.
