This Augmented stuff is interesting, but when the hell are they going to include classic drum machines as part of the V Collection? LinnDrum, CR-78, 808, 909, etc… I’m certain that many many more people are interested in drum machines than say, Augmented Woodwinds. I’ve been on the V Collection since version 7 and this looks like the first one I’ll skip.
having a vst of old famous drum machines, how imaginative.
I think they will add analog modelled drum machines. It’s not a dumb idea at all in the format Arturia makes things. They might already have been working on drum machine plugins for years. Who knows.
Spark has been around for years but has not received an update for a long time.
Check d16 for the Roland boxes.
Will it have a significantly lower sale price before Black Friday 2024?
never buy anything intro/full price from Arturia, they’re 50% off 50% of the time (and even cheaper when a new version is coming).
Wow, this is really underwhelming. This is the first upgrade in a while that I’m going to skip, especially considering I already have three of these (Acid, Minifreak, Augmented Brass.) A new piano doesn’t interest me, nor does an updated mini moog, and especially not the wurli. Weak stuff from Arturia.
still waiting for the CS-70V ;P
Still don’t understand what Augmented instruments are doing in VC? They should be packed in another “acoustic” bundle. Yet OK for the price.
Like Acid V sound and presets – could beat updated 303 from D16.
