Here before 1 million subscribers! haha. You make the best quality music/audio videos out there! Way higher quality than companies that make millions in revenue!
Jef G. pleasure to listen to your casts. Absolute respect. In hindsight, i just want to reflect and say. EPIC that you were running those Yorkville YSM1P's .. those were and still are.. epic! Have a pair myself, love them till death.
A Little sad that as a Sound Explorer Collection owner my cross grade price is $199. I was really hoping to see something like a $99 intro cross grade offer that would eventually end up $199 Nonetheless: Stage-73 definitely has some pretty Imaging, M/S processing, and Saturation harmonics going on and that's just me listening on Apple AirPods. I could see the Emulator II V tugging some of the spotlight away from the CMI V for that Lofi goodness - Resample into Pigments 2 if you wanna really get wild with it. Very curious to see how Analog Lab 5 runs. Thank you for your work, Jef!
I definitely want to see more Access Virus and MS2000 type emulations... There already is a software Virus, but I would like something other than Tarkus for MS2000. Also, I want all the original MS2000 patches for sure! And yes, I have an MS2000
ive never dialed in synth sounds. I really need sounds for songs like Take on Me and other 80's tunes. any advice on how to create these or are there any areas to share presets that I can maybe find from another user. I thought there would have been more usable presets for actual tunes.
I'll wait untl Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol (NKS) is fully supported in the new plugins: - Stage-73 V2 - Jup-8 V4 - Jun-6 V - Vocoder V - Emulator V
Nice video and I love the V-8, but I was a bit confused why you compare the old and new electric piano, but swiftly moved over comparing the Jupiters. It would have been nice to have that comparison, if only briefly.
hi Jef, my question is for the Maschine users. i have a MK3, and with V Collection 7, Maschine instantly recognised it. even had the little photo icons in the browser. i think Arturia automatically adds their own folder to the NI folders once you install the V Collection(at least for 7 it did). i don't remember actually doing anything special to make this happen. with V Collection 8, i can't seem to find any of the new synths(Emulator II V where are you?) in my Maschine browser. any advice on how to make V Collection 8 show up in Maschine's browser?
Maybe somebody asked the question already, but are the famous sounds of songs of the 80's pre programmed? Or do you need to program them yourself? Liked you video Jef and thanks for the info and the feedback.👊🏻😉
Arturia should take a second look at its upgrade price policy. I got V5 and spending 300 Euro, more than half the full price for less than half new synths, objectively seems a bit too much (I'm going to pass this).
Hey Jeff! Great video! What is the preset name in Emulator 2 for the coughing sounds? I have been going through every preset but can't find it anywhere...
FYI I tried the affiliate link and it just links to a general page, not the V collection. Would rather you got a cut of it as a thanks for all your great content.
@@jefgibbons Thank you. How do you find the refresh/response rate? I used a smart TV in the past and there was a slight lag compared to my computer monitor when working with my DAW.
Hey Jef has Steinberg fixed the issue with using displays that size and the plug-ins being able to be viewed and resized?...Esp the ones they sell like Poly and Wave where you can't resize the window bcse a lot of plugins come fixed sizes and when opened up on big monitors that have multiple screens they spread across the screens and you can't view them on 1 monitor unless it's in edit mode only and you lose the view in player mode...I find it kinda weird that I constantly see these massive studios with well over $100k in gear and then you see them working on a 27" screen or whatever the biggest widescreen Mac has as their latest. I use 3 screens and my main is a 42" but I haven't upgraded since I still can't see certain plug-ins on my main monitor. I haven't heard that they addressed those issues with the updates to my last time checking on it supporting full resizing of the windows like Arturia has built in.
Hey, where did you get the Ferris Bueller sounds in the Emulator II? Do they come with it? I just bought the V collection and can't find them?. Thanks.
Aside... I'm really loving your setup. In *theory* it's a bit acoustically compromised, but in terms of usability... the desk, the screen on the wall, all of it... this is one of the best I've seen. Of many.
I'd just bought UVI's Synth Anthology collection and spent a bunch of time going through the Emulator II library. Man, that keyboard had the best sound library of probably any PCM synth ever made. Obviously they sound a bit low-fi by today's standards (which might be what you want), but it's usable sound after usable sound, right out of the box. The Fairlight, which usually gets most of the plaudits for early samples, is rubbish by comparison - you have to do a lot of work to get the library sounds to sound like they did on the hit records.
Nice to hear about the UVI version, never checked it! I agree... the sounds of the Emulator II have been deeply ingrained in those of us that are influenced by the 80s!
The fact you leave your Akai tape recorder permanently in play mode which will wreck its pitch roller gives me anxiousness. I just want to go over there and turn the control lever to stop.
I must say, I onced read in Keyboard magazine that the E-mu II had a peculiar arpeggiator, one that could divide the neasure according to the number of keys depressed, so 1 note = 1 pulse per measure, 2 notes = 2 pulses per measure, 3 notes = three pulses, etc. I never found anything like it in any synth or sampler or rompler, be it modular, analog or virtual. I even talk to a guy at Intelligel about that feature and he told me that it was a great idea, one that he could implement someday in one of his modules. I'm not into modular synthesis, so I can't tell if he did. Still, I 'm wondering if the Arturia clone has that feature reproduced... Thanks for checking it out!
tnx Jef! As a former Juno 6 owner i'm very interested in this. What are your thoughts on the realism of the Juno6 chorus (in I, II and I+II settings)? tnx!
Bloody snob Some of us are happy with our Juno vst and at least we don't have to dust it so there 👀 Loved the video. P.S which is that cough patch? I feel like a sick day driving my Ferrari tomorrow.🤣
I'd only just got V Collection 7 so wasn't really interested in 8 ... and then I watched this video, so Arturia have you to thank for another sale, and I have you to blame. =p
Absolutely... but to me it's the educational aspect of all of these devices, and how close they are to the originals. I now have 3 of the synths in hardware form, and the software versions teach me a ton about the hardware! Plus having the patches makes it easier to dial in a certain era of sounds...
Would be nice if you could find that riff synth from policy of truth. I believe that what Allan used. And you looked excited like a kid in a candy store with head full of gray hair :)))
Except of the look of user interface JUN-6V has nothing to do with a Juno 6/60 - it just sounds like an analog poly synth vst- nothing more. Special when building sounds there is a significant difference in its behavior - where the original sounds good the JUN-6V is creating something - no fun, the finesse of the original is completely missing. As you have shown, to make JUN-6V sounds right much detail work is necessary. Looking forward how Roland will build its Juno60 VST... The Vocoder btw. is really great but has some bugs in its first version - but I think Arturia will fix them for sure. Emulator 2, Piano, is just a sampler or piano lib - not so interested. OB-Xa V analog poly synth vst- is also just an analog poly synth vst - cannot compare it, but compared to Matrix 1000, the Matrix 1000 sounds much more interesting. The last update had much more interesting inside - so I think 199.- is way too much, for me, just for the vocoder - but I spent it.
could you do a demo of the emulator sounds everyone seems to do modern sounds this synth is famous for being used by depesh mode etc a modern sound is of no interest.
I think V8 is weak tea. I'll wait for V9 or 10 - when they hopefully have something worthwhile in it. Like, say, the DSS1, the Mirage, and (not or) the DKI Synergy. Also, with a 9/11 every day from COVID, that cough wasn't cool...
If you want something exactly the same sound as the original Juno or Jupiter 8, Roland themselves modelled the synths perfectly but are more CPU intensive than DIVA.

I dont comment often but this was a great video and you just got a new subscriber. Everything was well explained, awesome setup too!
Thanks JaRed!
Cool add-ons! especially Moogcoder :) thanks for showing details, Jef!
Thanks again! Always appreciate your support!
Damn Jeff your ahead of the ball game with the new update.
Had some help from them ;)
Great review, great video, thanks! That Vocoder... just WOW; how easy you can produce some good results!
Superb explanations Jef, thank you. I can see a lot of experimenting with these new additions over the holidays!
Yes! I'm looking forward to some playing around time myself...
Very well explained videos and not a lot of extra talking like some others. You are straight to the point.. Nice studio by the way..
Thanks! Much appreciated!
The dead pan "sounds great" at 3:36 made me laugh lmao Great video Jef, thank you!
Was hoping people got the sarcasm ;)
It took forever to download the Vocoder, but MAN it was worth it! So exciting!! 😎👍🏼
This was an excellent review Jeff!
...then again Jeff IS an excellent person.
