A love letter to the vintage keyboard
Bringing together over 100 years of landmark keyboard instruments in one software package, the sounds behind every hit, every genre, and every musical movement are now at your fingertips. Inside, you’ll find analog synths, modular marvels, revolutionary digital synths, sublime acoustic and electric pianos, organs, and even a string machine. Alongside old favorites, V Collection 6 now includes DX-7 V, Buchla V, CMI V, Clavinet V, and revamped Analog Lab and Piano V software instruments, making this the most comprehensive classic keyboard collection ever made.
Above and beyond original spec

Every single instrument contained in V Collection 6 hasn’t just been recreated, it has been reimagined. Overcoming the limitations of the original instruments, but remaining true to their original vision, Arturia’s engineers have enabled features never before possible: transform classic monosynths into polysynths; add extra oscillators and LFOs; integrate arpeggiators; change the instrument’s cabinetry. This is the ultimate sound design playground.

An exciting world of sound
V Collection 6 gives you access to almost 7,000 amazing presets, so if you prefer to just play rather than tweak, you’ll have a lifetime of incredible sounds created by some of the world’s top sound designers. You even have access to the Sound Store, letting you try out exciting new sounds from top name artists, as well as tribute libraries featuring the sounds of your favorite synth and keyboard players.
