MarcL 785 Posted January 12 I don't understand Arturia's pricing philosophy! V Collection is so cheap compared to the single synths, but if you don't need most of them, it makes no sense to purchase the whole collection. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Me too And... if you have some of them included in V Collection, the upgrade price is the same for you and for the rest of the people that did buy none or less products than you Edited January 13 by Niky Serrano 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dubdisciple 629 Posted January 16 I have v collection 8 and i use it a lot. Just having hard time rationalizing upgrade. I already own augmented strings. Not sure if the rest is worth it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure why they have separate options for upgrading from VC8 and VC1 - 7 when the upgrade price is the same. Would have expected the upgrade from VC8 to be cheaper. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And the newly separated Prophets. And the incredible CS-80. And … So yeah, I jumped. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What are your thoughts on Piano v2 vs v3? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Better, I’m sure, but I’m addicted to the bounty of Pianoteq Pro Still, even though Arturia’s Piano is said to be based on an older version of Pianoteq, it’s well worth the upgrade as it does offer different sounds. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's probably enough to push me over the edge. Cheers Fleer 👍 Edited January 16 by ZincT 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They gave me the FX collection for $49 for BF, because I owned some of the freebies they gave away for Christmas. All I wanted was the Fragments granulizer, which goes for $99. And I also got the V Collection at $199 because I upgraded their string product from the holiday giveaway version. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also am finding a lot of potential in the Synclavier. I've had this for a couple of months and feel like I haven't even scratched the surface. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
