I quite like the way the HP and LP filters sound working together. Nothing against Cherry here, as they all sound good IMO. I have the Voltage Modular Core, several module bundles, and a growing list of their synths. Where Arturia wins is in the art/graphics category, as well as with the Arturia Software Center. Cherry sure needs one of those download managers at this point, because it's becoming a hassle to update your Cherry synths manually one at a time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

InstrEd 3,900 Posted May 9 Hope with all of those rebuilt pianos they were environmentally friendly and saved the wood 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sergio 257 Posted May 9 My previous upgrade was also from v5 to v8 for $99, plus $49 for the SQ80V. I'll probably pass the next upgrade at this cost but also probably will upgrade only the CS80V if this option is available. For everything else I think I have good replacements among my current HW and SW synths. Ah... and the last time I paid in 4 parcels, which was a nice move from Arturia IMO. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Carlos Iglesias 292 Posted May 10 299 since version 6, which is the one I have. They must be mad at me to give me that upgrade price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Barrie 316 Posted May 10 I have V Collection 8 and upgrade price of $199 (which is typically the upgrade price). Will wait for the $99 deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rasure 112 Posted May 10 My upgrade is 199, but if I buy it from the store as a new product its 149. Not sure why that would be? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
telecode 101 1,472 Posted May 10 my offer is $299 and $49 upgrade for Piano or Prophet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Niky Serrano 211 Posted May 10 My case is different! Crossgrade 399€ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sergio 257 Posted May 10 My policy with Arturia is to jump a few upgrades to increase the amount of instruments per money and I'll stick to it. I did that last time and got 14 new instruments for $99. But the $49 to upgrade to the new CS80V is tempting. Time to watch some demos on the web. My previous solo upgrade (Jupiter 8 V4) was $29 though. Maybe I'll wait for a sale. Decisions, decisions.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walter Cruz 216 Posted May 10 $149 because I have SQ-80 V and I can do in 4 installments... Might as well jump... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frank 543 Posted May 10 For me $149 from V8+SQ-80V. I will wait for BF and jump now first into the IK Syntronik Group-Buy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tim Smith 545 Posted May 10 Not fully familiarized with V8 yet. For 149.00 though I might do it. There look to be lots of improvements and additions. Other than Pianoteq it's difficult to find such nice sounding modeled instruments. I don't know what my deal is yet. I have't looked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
