  1. Well... if you search "Ensoniq" in this forum (and also in the old forum I think) you'll find my old posts saying that I'd wait until Arturia included some Ensoniq synths in the collection for me to upgrade. I guess this will finally happen 🙂

  2. I'm waiting for a sale on the Buchla 296e module since it's release. It used to be $75 on sale before. Now the "sale" price raised to $79!!! Well... I guess I'll have to wait a little more. But I'll NEVER get that module for that price. EVER!

    Hummmm.... with two instances we can go twice as phatt 🤔

    Nah! Probably not a good idea.

  4. So far I'm loving the new instruments. I have a HW Prophecy and the emulation is near enough and a lot easier to program . What surprised me though was the miniKORG 700S. A very nice sounding synth and with all the limitations of the original. The Tritons are also OK and although I always preferred the Roland romplers the cloud thing is not for me. Roland... I'll use HW. But for the classic Korg sound the emulations are fine.

  5. Well... I changed my mind about this. After watching many videos and sound demos and also considering that Korg have not lowered the price of this collection bellow a certain point (f.i. I paid $99 for the original collection years ago) I decided not wait and get the whole shebang  for $150. I just hope that this will give me a better deal if, ever, Korg grows the collection again.

    Also, the Prophecy is not incomplete as I thought. They just grouped 3 types of physical model oscillators into one.

  6. I have the Special bundle and my upgrade is $149. If it was $99 I'd be tempted by the Prophecy, as I don't care for the other additions. Also this Prophecy is not a perfect recreation; it lacks some of the MOSS oscillator models (although I have not found the exact information about this anywhere). If  the collection included perfect recreations of the Prophecy and the Z1 I'd probably willing to pay even the $199 intro price. But the way it is... I'll pass!

    This is nonsense to offer a crossgrade to users of a free DAW. Otherwise, would be pointless to other DAW users, and also to regular Studio One users that would have to pay more than crossgrade from a free DAW.

    I got S1 while on version 2. My v3 upgrade was free but I paid for the v4 upgrade. I have already spent almost $300 on S1 and I couldn't care less about how much anyone else spent to get it. When I decide to buy anything I only care for how good the product is and if it's worth the money.

    And IMO it's illogical for Presonus to care about how much anyone spent on a competitor product if they want new customers. The money they get will be the same.

    Please note that Free/Lite/Trial versions of these DAWs do NOT qualify. It must be a purchased or equivalent version.

    This is nonsense. If they want to attract users of other DAWs to migrate to SO what's the difference? They should do a $199 sale and let everyone jump in!

    BTW, they should also do a decent price on upgrades for owners of the previous versions. Until then I'll keep my v4.5.

    The updates affect the current line of Arturia synths regardless of the collection they appeared in first.

    I'm still in V-Collection 5. When I access the product list in my Arturia account the versions are the following:

    CS-80 V3,  Jup-8 V3,  Mini V3,  Modular V3,  Prophet V3,  SEM V2,  Wurli V2,  Vox Continental V2,  Solina V2,  Matrix-12 V2,

    Synclavier V,   Stage-73 V,   Piano V,   B-3 V2,   Farfisa V,   ARP2600 V3

    Some synths are "V", some "V2" and some "V3". I guess the current collection have some "V4" or above.

    Can someone with the V-Collection 8 tell me which synths in your collection have different versions than mine?

    I can't find this information anywhere.

    Also, if the version in the current collection is the same as mine does this means that the synths i have are up-to-date?

    Thanks for any help to clarify this.

     

     

  10. This sale is on!

    My upgrade price from Reference 4 Headphone to SoundID Reference for Headphones is €29 now.

    I can't see anything significantly new but... anyway...  I'm glad I waited  🙂

  11. I just received a message from AAS  with the subject Multiphonics CV-1 tutorials, news, and intro sale where, among other announcements, there is the offer bellow (quote):

    "Finally, don’t miss out on the Multiphonics CV-1 special introductory sale. We added a custom option for Modeling Collection users. You can now get your hands on Multiphonics CV-1 for only $69 by visiting your Offers page at the address below."

    I'll not reproduce the link because it has a personal code that probably is related to my account and based on what I already have.

    But the interesting thing is this: in that page there is also a Complete you collection offer where I could get Multiphonics CV-1 and Chromaphone 3 (that I had not bought yet) for the same $69 !  That's $35 each 😀

    I was planning to get Multiphonics CV-1 next month but, at that prices, I just grabbed both right now.

    Check your email !!!

  12. There are lots of good simulations of this synth and Softube, even with the discount, is a bit expensive. If it was only for the synth I'd probably pass this time but the individual modules available in the Softube modular system (including the famous juno chorus) makes all the difference IMO. I got the (Moog) model 72 before for the same reason and I'll probably get this too.
