I'm really excited about this update. Thanks for showing it off!
Most welcome, thanks for the comment!
This whole collection is my Go-To now. Even though many are harder to create custom sounds with than, say, with Pigments, I find that each synth has such unique flavors and character. And it's hard to get into modern synths as much when compared to the insanity of synths like Buchla and such. All the new ones in V9 are my favorite synths ever (well, those guys, and then Buchla.)
Omg I’m not the only Boards of Canada fan! Love it! Thanks for making the time in making all these videos Jef! Cheers from Miami FL
Wow! Loved the beat and solo. The lead at 9:14 sounds beautiful! Excellent and informative video. Thank you, Jef.
Thanks Kaitav!
Got it! I'm loving these!
Boards of Canada wow i had forgotten about them YES thanks for wearing that T shirt
Thanks @Jef, always happy to hear from you
Same here Pat!
Thanks for always giving us indepth reviews. Very appreciated.
Most welcome Kedar!
@@jefgibbons Salute!
Love your videos Jef you are the best!!
Thanks John, much appreciated!!
Hi Jef, Thank You very Much for this very interesting tutorial / demo. Thank You to share your knowledge and experience with us. Best regards from Switzerland
Most welcome Paco!
Nice! Updating my bundle now!
Awesome monitor!
Thanks for sharing Jef!
Most welcome CV!
Most welcome CV!
thank you for the great review Jeff. Awesome work from Arturia, Love everything about the brand. Cleanly developed & kinda moving in NI territories with Augmented instruments. I see plenty of future development in that direction. For me, I look around my studio and Arturia software + hardware kinda took over the last few months (V collection 9, Pigment, MicroFreak, KeyLab essential 49, Keystep 37, BSP which is amazing with MPC one). So much fun and easy on that MacBook pro. Amazing times for the music lovers. Thank you!
It is... we're definitely spoiled for choice now!
I like your honesty mate. So many YT's try to deny that the free software is a form of payment
Informative and like that link group tip
Just purchased, installing right now while watching this video 🙂
Enjoy it!
Upgraded to V9. No brainer!! Great Intro track.
Thanks James!
Great vid Jef! ROYGBIV =D
Speaking my language;)
The MS-20 is obviously the star here. I’ve got the Korg Collection, but I need the NKS ability. Guess I’m updating. Again…
It's really great, but don't sleep on the new version of the piano too! I love it. :)
@@thehomienicked8208 word I’ll check it out
The previous versions of the prophet I found to be a bit bland and lacklustre. The two new(separate) versions are on a whole new level now. Particularly the prophet-5 v has exceeded my expectations. Arturia have knocked it out of the park with this one. It has a much fatter, characterful sound which entices me to use it more. The MS-20 is no slouch either -and compared to Korg's own software version can hold it's own. The CS-80 also rocks compared to the previous version and sounds VERY much improved. The new strings and choir are a lot of fun to use but can hog the CPU if you are not carful or are using an old system. Overall Arturia have lifted the bar again I think. Highly recommended.
another great video.
Hoping Arturia will release some more vintage / retro digital synths in the future.
Even thou I like The Beast by UVI more than Arturia’s Synclavier because the Beast includes way more drum samples
Thanks Vadim! Good to know
The piano piece sounded like something out of Clint Mansell's pen, beautiful
High praise, huge fan of his stuff!
veri naissss
Check out the after touch effects on the CS80V presets.... amazing! I actually received the CS80V through Steinberg and purchased V9 after.
I like the new Augmented Strings and Voices additions. I have Analog Labs V so plan to try out the piano and see how it now compares against Pianoteq.
Let us know your thoughts!
Nice shirt!
Thanks;)
👍 merci…
Since Glen Darcey left to do the fantastic Hydrasynth V Collection has really lagged behind most of the other offerings. The controllers, pigments, brutes, audio fuses, and microfreak are all compelling in their marketspace. I usually skip upgrades (on 7 now), but between the modular rig, Komplete, and iPad offerings I will probably wait for 10.
I'm still loving my hydra desktop
great set of instruments. Get this, get NI komplete. And you are ready to rumble.. But secretly i was hoping they would be adding pigments to the V-collection
That would be a sweet addition!
Awesome video I LIKE...Question how do make your laptop show that on the screen instead of showing what you are doing on your monitor?
I’m running the tv as the main monitor and the laptop as a secondary display instead of mirroring. Is that what you meant?
I think i might wait until they get to Arturia 10. Not enough new to get me to upgrade. I own the SQ80 and the only synth i might like is the new korg MS20. I already have the IOS Korg version and the cherry audio version. Ill check out the Demo and compare but i just did a shootout with the new CA Memory Mode and Cherry Audio won hands down with their emulation over arturia. Native Instruments and GForce.
Unfortunately Arturia isn’t my go to because of the COU hit in a lot of the synths.
I have the Korg MS-20 and a hardware Mini. The settings vs sounds have almost zero correlation. Any idea if this one does? My upgrade is pretty steep.
As always, great video Jef!
Is it worth the $199 upgrade from 8? I am really not sure there is enough value there
That's tough to say, that's a lot of cash, and the main thing is the SQ80 and the Korg, since the Prophets, piano, CS-80 are updates that you might not even notice sound quality-wise... Might be time to just dig into those ones in V8 that you haven't really explored yet!
Oh right, and the Augmented stuff...
It depends on how many hours a month do you sit down and play synths. I like playing so I know I put about 20-30 hours a month. Some months I can do 40-50 of playing so I definitely get value out of it. Ask yourself how much time do you spend in the studio
@@LocaliLLocano Great point - my question was more around the difference between V8 (which I own) and V9 - which to me, other than the MS-20 (My very first physical synth, yeah I am that old, and perhaps that's a good enough reason...) doesn't seem like such a huge upgrade. I think I will wait for one of the big annual sales.
@@dliwer sounds like you have your answer there. Yes wait until the Black Friday sale to do the upgrade
Great vidéo! "boards of canada" ;-)
My fave!
@@jefgibbons Very very great band!
How do I Sync my Arturia plugs in to Maschine hardware? Can you please make a Video .. showing how to set this up!
What happens if you load a project with the old prophet vs running (within the pro 5 plugin). Does the new standalone version somehow load instead?!
I was planning to get output exhale, I have V8. Is augmented voices comparable to exhale? Or is exhale the better option?
Does anyone know: how do you start a 'new preset' i.e. a blank sheet with each instrument? I can only find "New Preset..." in the standalone version of Pigments but any instrument in Analog / V Collection 9 (including Pigments) doesn't have this option.
What kind of midi controller do you have that has the lights on it that you play on in this video?
My computer from the stone age falls down on its knees on a single instance of the Augmented Strings free on the buffer size of 64. lol
Thanks for your videos Jef. I know this is off topic but your 4k monitor looks amazing and must be a real pleasure to work with. I'd love to get one but I'm wondering if you're aware of or have looked into the amount of radiation that comes off that screen and what the health implications might be?
I have not… that’s a good point though! I’ll ask my old science teacher next time he comes by. He’s a got a meter for that kind of thing and could tell me the implications! My guess is it’s nothing compared to the two 24” crt’s I worked with for years!
Fruit cake time
You kidding? It's non-ionizing radiation, dude. This is very basic stuff in physics. Getting sunlight is orders of magnitude more harmful. Might as well be a vampire. Ask any physicist. I think Sabine Hossenfelder has a video on radiation and health on her channel.
I cant get mines to open up instrument on ableton 11. Can you help? Plus I cant get my analog lab 4 to open.
They have run out of keyboard companies willing to partner with them and really take us back to the old days. So now they are giving us new creations, but while I recognize value in that, it seems to me like they should maybe just hang it up.
Would love to have virtual Kurzweil K250, Rhodes Chroma, and especially PPG 2.3
That would be more in the spirit of the original key collection series.
The new additions were never hardware keyboards.
Again, maybe they should just quit on the whole concept.
They could still maybe do the Crumar GDS. That would be awesome.
I wish Arturia will create an Emu SP12 VST
Wondering why there are no Kurzweil emulations. K2000 is such a classic
Because without the actual hardware engine they don't sound anything special
Have they made any improvements to CPU usage for augmented strings cuz damn I’ve never had any instrument that is that heavy. I have an i9 and 64 gb of Ram and the best Samsung SSD on the market and it was still using 40-60% of my cpu with basically every patch
Wow, I’ll have to check and get back!
You haven’t tried Roland Cloud’s component virtualization based plugins then…
Can I use this on my ipad?
Are you using a TV as a monitor? Is that practical? Cheers!
Not for everyone, but I love it!
@@jefgibbons cool! is it readable? especially text?
🙂😷
some call it V9 and some Vx..... kinda confusing to the beginner watchin the video.... also cud not find in Arturia where to download and buy it.......i know it all sounds wierd to the experts..... but if i ever become kinda expert....i will not forget the dodo beginners like myself...... nice video
Not a dodo… just look at the date on the video. This is an old video when V9 came out! V10 is the latest.
@@jefgibbons great...thks!....haha
I tried to find it. But the sites not working at all ??
same here, site seems down
It was slow for me but eventually popped up!
Yep the site is down for me also. I experienced this problem when they released their last freebie and the download speed was woeful when it did work.
@@jefgibbons everyone went straight to their site after watching your great video, eventually leading to crashing the site 🤣
Site down
I have V7 and V8. Is V9 worth the upgrade?
Only if you really need the Korg, SQ, and the augmented series! The others are nice redesigns, but they probably won't pack as much punch if you already have the old ones...
@@jefgibbons awesome. I bought the SQ when it came out so I think I'll wait until V10. Thanks!
arturia has the right to money
that said, not sure if i'll be upgrading from V 8 since the upgrade price i'm getting is $199.
the Korg is a nice addition, but already have the Cherry Audio PS-20
The price for V8 users does seem high to me.
The site is telling me that it is $399 to upgrade from 8 to 9
@@donwells8465 that's the highest price i've seen mentioned. mostly seeing $199 and some people saying $149. must depend on how you got V 8.
@@donwells8465 That can't be right, are you logged in?
@@jefgibbons I contacted Arturia and they said it's because I am making payments. Once I finish paying then the upgrade will be $199. I bought v8 less than 2 months ago. I'm less than happy with them and I'll find other options in the future. soundwide has both NI and PA so, arturia will be easy to forget about.
ORANGE! 😉
Yeeeah that’s right!
@@jefgibbons (giggle)
I'm still holding out...maybe 10
I did a V8 update last night - and now I no longer have access to Prophet, CS 80 and Piano! Not cool at all.
Dang! Do you mean the old versions? My old versions are intact, definitely contact support…
And check the Arturia installer app and make sure the old versions are installed
OK did some serious digging and here it is: The old versions are still working as they did before -but only as standalone. However, they were replaced in V-8 with the new versions which are locked. So in Analog Lab - I don't have access to the synths just the presets, but I can use the synths as standalone. Still annoying... I opened a ticket with support. will update!
@@dliwer Thanks for letting us know!
UPDATE:
After a lot of back and forth with the excellent, responsive Nicholas at Arturia, they were able to correct an issue with Analog Lab.
I downloaded a new version, made sure "Support Legacy" is checked, restarted the Lab, and now, each patch shows which version of the synth it is associated with. If it is a synth I own, the patch loads and allows me to edit. If the patch is from a new updated synth - it gives me the "You don't own this synth" message.
I have to say I was super impressed with support.
Not another one… my pockets are screaming
I don't think I b diving into the Arturia ecosystem.....for now....I do have a DrumBrute and a drum impact and a micrfreak.....native Instruments is deep enough for me...for now
I’m sure it’ll be ready when you are, you’ve got some good kit there!
Arturias patch handling system is a complete nightmare.
You may make an awesome patch but saving it and finding it again is way harder than you think.
Definitively NOT made by or for musicians.
An inspiration KILLER for sure.
NOT WORTH THE MONEY UPGRADING TO VERSION 9. THERE NOT GIVING YOU ENOUGH NEW KEYBOARDS
Sounds great, but I'm not liking the high pitched and thin high hat.
Never saw this better than Omnisphere or Kontakt. The Americans and the Germans have the better stuff here.
Kontact....HaHaHaHa! And yes, I own a slew of Kontact instruments. They are OK if one is starting out and can pick up software her and there when on sale for free or under $100.
Their upgrade cost is ridiculous.
Agree i Upgrade from v5 to V8 I think thats the Best way to upgrade. skip some versions to see improvements.
Hold up.
Didn't they just drop 8 like a year ago. 🤔
This hurting the hobbits B account.🥺
I have V8 Collection and some additional synths. Arturia stuff IMO is mediocre at best. Usually acts as a place holder until replaced by better sounds. Tons of aliasing and generally weak 2D sounds Lots of fanboying on this stuff by people with low expectations. Better stuff ouf there if you can get past their marketing BS!
I was looking for a something with a massive amount of presets, that impressed me as much as Omnisphere and Keyscape. After a lot of research and reviews, I settled on the Arturia Sound Explorder Belledone - which is a level about the V Collection 9. It has the V Collection 9 and a lot of other stuff. I do not like it. I am so disappointed.
I find Arturia's stuff to be very unmusical compared to Cherry Audio, U-he and Plogue. Why is this? Why does their stuff just not inspire me? They sit on my computer and I just never get inspired by them. So frustrating.
Thanks for chiming in Delon, would you say it's the presets that don't do it for you? Are there a lot more presets on the other synths you use?
@@jefgibbons No, It has to do with the sound of their plugins and the overall design. I know their stuff is quality, they just don't make me want to press the keys. Plogue and Cherry audio -- different story. But I guess to each his own.
@@Drfresh1402 I was really disappointed with Cherry's Eight Voice, I like the Dco and Polymode. GeForce OBe is the best vst synth I've used. Diva is also a good synth.
Go ahead and buy it from Arturia, if you don't mind having money stolen from your bank account!!!
