I think it’s fair to say, owning an original hardware Synthi is probably out of reach of most of us synth nerds. Tristan got hands on with the new instruments this week, check out his video demo overview below: Updates include a full update to Analog Lab and an overhaul of the Hammond B3 organ, as well as 800 new presets for the othe pre-existing instruments. Now up to 24 seperate synthesiser/keys instruments, V Collection adds recreations of the Casio CZ series phase distortion synthesisers, the legendary Mellotron and the bizarre British semi-modular EMS Synthi AKS synth. This course is also published one our education websites (macProVideo, macprovideo) and Ask.Video (AskVideo, askvideo).Arturia have just announced the new edition of their software instrument suite, V Collection 7, adding 3 new instruments and a range of updates to their existing stable.

This course, by sound designer and trainer Rishabh Rajan is the best way to master this complex and fascinating instrument!

The Synthi V is not your regular analog subtractive synth plugin. All sections of the synth are clearly explained and demonstrated: the Filters, the Ring Mod, the Envelope Shaper, the Trapezoid, the Spring Reverb, the Sequencer, the on-board Joystick… The course also explores the effects and modern modulation possibilities offered in the Advanced Panel. Next, he reveals all about the VCOs section, where you discover everything about the oscillators, including the Noise Generator and Oscillator Sync functions. After looking at the preset browser and explaining how to create a default patch, Rishabh dives deep into the heart of the synth, where all new patches begin: the Pin Matrix. The course begins with an overview of the different modules and an explanation of the color coding used on the interface. This powerhouse synth can look complex, but don’t fret… our synth expert Rishabh Rajan is here to demystify it! Arturia’s Synthi V recreates the EMS Synthi AKS, complete with its flexible (but intimidating) pin matrix and unusual Envelope Shaper. EMS synths were used on classic recordings such as Pink Floyd’s “On the Run”, Jean-Michel Jarre’s “Oxygene”, David Bowie’s “Heroes”, and the Dr.
