Arturia V Collection 30 Keygen
Kum Filteau
The change needs to be in the plugin, not the NKS presets, if a plugin migrates the NKS preset could be one created with a VST2 even years ago and as long as the host and plugin both support migration it will load in the equivalent VST3 in the absence of the VST2. Anyway Arturia are aware of the issue and working on it.
Today I saw an update in Arturia Software Center... YES......heuu nooooon.... the release notes speaks about "no more error in NKS from Arturia browsers ( heu ) " but did not solved (yet) the issue... Really tired
Just hit this today.. Updated my Arturia collection to 9.1 and now Komplete Kontrol is giving the error: 'PLUGIN could not be loaded, as it may not yet support Apple Silicon or VST2 to VST3 migration....
My main consideration/gap is being able to play a soft synth and have the filter controls already mapped, for example, so that I can play the filter as much as the notes (which, in many ways, encapsulates my whole approach to music, really).
M32 is great for the price. Build quality is solid but the screen is tiiiiny. Browsing is also a bit different than on the bigger Komplete controllers, but it is a great portable keyboard for NI stuff.
Another super useful feature is its integration with DAWs(ableton in my case) I have mine around my groove boxes and synths so I can hit Play, Stop, and Record without needing to go back to my mouse & keyboard.
It was cool to have most of the plug-ins and libraries I used all in one place while I could preview presets when looking for the right sound. I also liked manipulating the UI knobs vs interacting with the UI of the plug-ins directly(especially for the arturia instruments)
I currently use it pretty much as a preset browser. I feel like I need to explore a bit more how it acts in a track if you load it with effects and then try to automate or modulate stuff. My gut feel is it would quickly become a bit of a mess. I guess the advantage of it is a very quick way to browse through multiple sounds, and (top tip) you can very quickly get access to expansions just by typing their name in the search box.
V Collection X sees the addition of six more synths, turning the vast collection into a head-spinning 39-strong collection for just $599. Two existing instruments, the Wurli V and the Mini V, have also been entirely rebuilt and three new expansion packs have been added, bringing 450 new and diverse presets to the table.
Inward Universe offers emotive ambient spaces and modern Augmented presets. Inner City Soul blends classic soul with modern music using the rebuilt Mini V4 and Wurli V3 synths. Hyper Rave dives into underground innovation, featuring Acid V and Minifreak V, offering a spectrum from enigmatic sounds to energetic 4-to-the-floor compositions. Each pack showcases a mix of instruments from the V Collection X, catering to varied musical experiences and styles.
Also, anyone who has touched a DX7 will recognize that colour scheme even on the otherwise unspecific FM-skin of Retro-Synth, which, ironically, is much worse at emulating a DX7 than, for instance Native's FM8, which doesn't look DX7-ish at all.
I only have Analog Lab since version 2 and Pigments, and I'm not a keyboardist/pianist at all, but because I wasn't told about Logic's stock keys VSTs past Alchemy, I just used AL because I knew and could understand what those synths were supposed to emulate. I was given Komplete 10 in school, so I wanted to use those a lot as well. Even with the effects...when Logic released the Pultec, Neve and API clones, if you were new to Logic and didn't really know these at all, then you were golden. I do like them, especially the Pultec (Vintage Tube), and having worked with the outboard dealie, I'm pleased with its ease of use and sound. But are you, as a seasoned user of Logic and, let's say UA plugins, gonna stop using those and start using Logic's? And it's not even solely about processing speed for tracking or mixdown.
I imagine the ease of use and familiarity will be enough for some peeps to buy v8 or AL, but you have a point. It already exists in Logic in some way. They - and I, now that I know - just gotta get our hands dirty and get our ears ready for the shootout...
I had the V Collection before getting Logic. I personally like fooling myself having a make-believe software version of a synth I know but can't afford. To the point I hardly ever use the Advanced panel with the extra features added by Arturia, and keep it as faithful as possible to the real thing. So as good as Logic's synths may sound, they don't fill that particular gap for me.
For beginners, getting the full collection in one chock-full can be a little overwhelming. I've had guys asking things like "which one do I use for bass?". Like they're not aware any one of those synths was all you could afford back in the day and learned them inside and out to squeeze every possible sound out of them.
I always give them the same advice: make a full song for each one of them, using just the one per song to get all the sounds, and soon you'll get a feel for their particular strengths and weaknesses + it's a good exercise to get to know them.
The Arturia V Collection contains software model implementations of classical analog and digital synthesizers, samplers, pianos and organs. With the Arturia Midi Control Center software it is possible to create Controller Maps for hardware controllers such as the Arturia KeyLab Mk 2 shown in the figure. This keyboard has a set of 27 controls, assignable in 3 banks; the total of knobs, faders and buttons therefore is 81.
When designing a controller map we must know the Midi Controller Configuration of the instrument from the Arturia V Collection. This information is also relevant when designing a Liine Lemur controller interface with control objects.
Each instrument in the Arturia V Collection has a set of predefined controller objects in the Default Midi Controller Configuration. The example shown here is for the Buchla Easel. The control elements with red rectangles are included in the predefined set. In order to find the Midi controller assignment one has to click on the object and read the information from the black pop-up window (Midi CC number, channel, controller type and value range). There is no overview list of these assignments, neither in the virtual instrument GUI, nor on the Arturia website. Finding these default Midi controller assignments is a tedious task, that has to be performed for all instruments in the collection. The purple rectangles show the controller objects that may be assigned in a User Midi Controller Configuration. These are not included in the data overview presented here.
In a long memorandom to Arturia I have been reporting my experience, errors and improvement suggestions with/for the hardware and software products (see above and in various Monthly News items in 2019 and 2020). This included the hassle of inspecting the Midi assignments for each GUI object separately, an error-prone process. I was disappointed for never receiving an answer from the company. Now I am happy to see that with the V Collection 7 / 8 update and the new GUI (December 2020) there is a panel with a Midi configuration overview list and with editing capabilities. So, maybe they have been listening after all.
Determining the default Midi controller configuration is useful when implementing a controller mapping on hardware controllers, such as the Arturia KeyLab, or when designing a controller with a generic tool such as Liine Lemur. Part of the iPad Lemur GUI design for the Buchla Easel is shown in the image. The objects in this GUI have specific Midi CC assignments, corresponding to the default configuration for the virtual instrument. With clever preparation, e.g., looking for similarities in the default Midi configurations, one may reduce the controller design and implementation work for the complete set of instruments. That is the information overview presented in the table in the next section.
The full table with the default Midi controller configuration may be found here Arturia V Collection default Midi controller configuration table >> (PDF, 3 pages, paper size A3 landscape) [Update December 2021, Analog Lab MIDI mapping added, modified table layout]:
This page provides a link to a free PDF table with the default Midi configuration for all instruments in the Arturia V Collection. This information is needed when designing Midi controllers, but is not available on the Arturia Website. It is quite tedious to compile, and I decided to offer the results from that process as a free service. Also I communicated my findings and and information overview request to the Arturia company.
Note: The PDF table only shows the Default Midi Controller Configuration. Each instrument GUI has many more assignable objects, and in order for these to respond to external controls one has to define a specific User Midi Configuration. The table presented here, however, is a good starting point for controller design.
