It takes me right back to the days when I had them for real. The upgrade has improved lots of things for each instrument as well as the scalable GUI which is nice. It is one very remarkable sounding instrument. But the real buzz for me right now is the CS80. I had a Jupiter 8 and this emulation sounds remarkable. Mini V can be switched into polyphonic mode and it sounds sensational like that believe me. The individual upgrades are excellent for those with only one or two Arturia synths. The extra instruments would be very nice Synclavier I would imagine would be sweet. If you have the Arturia V Collection bundle I would say the upgrade price is well worth it. And many other synths including real ones such as a loaded JV2080, Roland JD800 as well as the additive Kawai K5000W. I have got Sonic Projects OPX II Pro which is another amazing sounding analog synth. I felt I just only wanted the three out of the whole bundle. These new versions all have fresh updated factory presets and most of them are killer. V3 offers quite a lot more too in terms of what the instrument can do, browser etc. I have upgraded to V3 for those and they are well worth the GUI update now. Update Update The only other two I have are Mini V and Jupiter 8V. You can reach out and touch it! I will be upgrading the others I have as well. Can be very large and right back to the original machine itself. The new installer file size is larger than the original installer.

You just download the new installer and it will re authorise very well. After payment a registered version of the update appears in your My Arturia account. Update This has all worked out fine as it usually does. I have contacted them so we will wait and see what happens.

They took my money but no download, no nothing so the $9.99 update thing does not seem to be working right now. If you have quite a few of them, I think you can update them to the new GUI's for some flat fee as well. You can update individual instruments to the new GUI versions for $9.99 a piece. Definitely check your online Arturia account.

Arturia v collection 5 worth it
