This is probably old news to most of you, but to me (who have just recently picked up music again after many years of neglect) it was an eye-opener. Maybe someone out there can have some use of this eye-opening experience.
 
Today I received a crossgrade offer from Arturia, which would give me the V Collection for only €99. With a regular price of €399 it was a great deal, for sure. But to be honest, after having bought the Jupiter-8V earlier this year I had actually given up on Arturias products, as the VST interface was so tiny that it was almost impossible to use on my 27" 2560x1440 monitor. After some hesitation I decided to buy the V Collection anyway. Besides Jupiter-8V, the only other product in the collection that I already owned was Spark 2, so the overlap would be minimal. There would still be almost a dozen new instruments.
 
The first one I tried after installation was the one at the top of the Sonar browser list of VST3 synths: Analog Lab. I had absolutely no idea what it was. However, I soon discovered that it was the answer to all my prayers (at least as far as Arturia VSTi's are concerned). It turned out to be a launch pad from which I could control all instruments in the collection using a much more streamlined front end. Not only were the preset browser, knobs and sliders much larger. Additionally it was possible to filter the presets based on any combination of instrument, type, characteristics and favourite selections. And last - but definitely not least - it was possible to adjust the size of the Analog Lab user interface (small, medium or large, with a height of 758, 858 or 958 pixels respectively) so that it can be used on both my desktop screen as well on my laptop at an optimal size.
 
True, the knobs and sliders available are sometimes only a subset of those present in an instruments default interface, but would I ever need the full set of controls it's just one mouse click away. What a life saver.
 
So again, although this most likely was old news to many of you, all others that have stayed away from Arturia's synths due to their minuscule VST interfaces on high resolution screens - this may be the answer.
 
And still I haven't said anything about all the great new instruments which I have only started to look into.

Yep they created the analog lab for that and gui updates arein the pipeline ....i hope they famlow thzir work on ios ...brillant

Well, after reading this, I went to Arturia's site--at one point I was going to order it at the sale price of $199.00 Decided to wait or not do it, since I am short of funds at the moment. However, I recently purchased several of Arturia's iPad synths. So I signed in to the site, and lo and behold, I got a special offer for the Arturia V Collection 4 for only $69.00. Yes, that's right--original price of $399, sale price of $199, special offer to download all for $69 bucks. Could NOT resist this, even if I only use some of these or one of these from the collection it will be well worth it.
 

Don t forget guyz that those a nks ready

So much for not buying anymore software for awhile! ; )

Thanks for the heads-up!

by the way, basic installation of all 13 products in the collection was a breeze. I am already up and running. So far just quick browse thru the Wurlitzer, Oberheim and Mini are a blast! I believe there are many presets also available to download, but that will have to wait until later this week, no time now. 
I'm impressed. I haven't even opened the Analog Lab yet. And if they are also NKS ready, that's another bonus. Wow.

(From the Deals forum)
Wow, these 3 iPad synths only cost $5 each, so this would mean you got the entire V Collection 4 as well as the iPad stuff for $84 total, really incredible value.
So that would be the best way to get the entire collection at an unbeatable price.

Yep guyz don t underestimate the ipad version ... it really lets uou go deeper on sound design with fun ...you can export your presets '....
