Hi Craig. Another great tutorial. I just recently bought Arturia V Collection 8 after already having Arturia Keylab8 and Analogue lab 4 for some time. The instruments in the Latest Arturia software are really good quality. The V2 Pianos are especially good. I own Spectrasonics Omnisphere and KeyScape, UVI Falcon and UVI Keysuite which are pretty similar offerings to Arturia V Collection. They all stand up to each other in terms of sound. The Arturia stuff is very easy to use and definitely the most beginner friendly out the suites mentioned above. V collection Version 8 is a big improvement over previous collection.
Hi Troy. I definitely have gear envy over Keyscape, but it’s good to hear that the V2 Pianos hold up against it... so I can save on a few pennies for now!
Thanks mate this tutorial along with Arturia's 50% sale helped me make my decision. I already have Pigments which is rad so I think Analog lab V with it's great selection of different synth presets will bode well. Your tune sounds super rad too. Cheers!
Helpful tutorial. Thank you. I think this is the best synth for me because I am not great at sound design and find it hard to make decent sounds from scratch so I want loads of presets. Many people will pour scorn on that approach but I just want to make music with minimum technical fuss at this stage. It is quite limited but that is also a good thing in some ways.
Of course everyone has a different approach and a different reason for making music. But my channel is all about making music for yourself and for your own enjoyment. As long as this stands true, it makes no difference what others think
I love the music from Cyberpunk. I hear there will be a new radio station and new music (but sadly no additional Samurai Jams in the expansion) cant wait. It will be worth another replay. I'm tmpted to pick up the new content from the point beforee you enter Embers.
Wow You really just hit spot on on all the little things that I did not know or am struggling with right now. I have the Impulse 61 as well, and just ditched the Automap and upgraded to HUI compatibility. Was messing with getting the RemoteControlEditor to work, but I find it quite unlogical. Will have a better look at quick controls. Do they utilize the RCE by the way?
Yes, that automap thing was weird. It worked perfectly for the first year or two that I had the keyboard and then just suddenly stopped. I use the Nektar P1 now, which has a Quick Controls button on the actual hardware, so I didn’t need to do any configuration at all. I just press the button and have instant access to them so I have not tried RCE
@@Tutorial_ismManaged to get the Analog Lab controls mapped to my Impulse. What was messing things around was that the macros were actually set up to specifik MIDI CC inside the plugin, so it constantly messed up the Quick Controls :)
There's just one thing I'm still trying to figure out is how to record, or make a track. Unless that isn't a thing because I could not find anything about it
Great tutorial. I'm actually looking at getting the Arturia Keylab mk2 midi keyboard but noticed it doesn't have an onboard arpeggiator. Was the arpeggiator in this software pretty easy go assign to your midi controller?
The arps in Analog Lab itself are already pre-baked in to the presets, so you don’t have to do any assigning - just play any note or chord to trigger them. If you want to edit the arp patterns you have to own the individual synth that the preset is utilising, but if you do, they are very easily manipulated
@@Tutorial_ism ok good to know. Im looking at this and the Novation SL MKIII and noticed the one thing the Novation had over it was the onboard arpeggiator and sequencer. Still trying to decide which one maybe better for me.
@@Tutorial_ism Thanks :) I've decided to get an Arturia keyboard. But to my dismay they appear to be sold out of the Keylab 61 Mk II in the whole of the UK :). Probably going to get a 'keylab essential' and then upgrade later if necessary. And if not necessary i'll have the money to get a synth like Serum or buy one of the 'full version' Arturia VSTs.
Hi, Just bought v collection and using cubase pro 11. Within mediabay of your video all arturia synths are with picture. Did they appaer automatically with installation, or Did you have to do it maually by screencapt in each synth plugins? I Just started today, and have to do it manually...
As I see it the two are not directly comparable, even if you don't consider the huge price difference. Analog lab is mainly focused on semi customizable presets from brilliant reproductions of a wide collection of classic Analog and Digital synths. Where Omnisphere has a more broad approch with a sample base and synthesis. Personally I don't whink I would use Omnisphere enough to justify the price tag, but Analog Lab V was a no brainer, when I saw what you get for the relatively low price...
Yes, sorry about that. I wasn’t aware when I was recording that you will have a different number of presets depending on which other Arturia products you own
If you have no other Arturia products it's around 2k presets, if you also have Collevtion V8, which is almost all of their instruments, you get that 11k or more.
Reading through the comments it seems everyone has a different amount depending on which Arturia plugins they already own. I wasn’t aware of that when I made the video. I thought it would be the same for everyone
There are a whole bunch of free packs in the store within the plugin, but I don’t think 9000. Maybe it also loads up the presets from the V collection. I have to admit, I never did read the manual for this plugin!!!!
I dont know why, I just bought arturia keylab essential, and installed analog lab V, but I dont like the synth sounds library, better on garageband sound library than this, I compare it because its the same free vst given from buying a hardware, how about you ?
crap....i bought it yesterday otherwise i would've used your affiliate link for sure..... looking forward to diving in.....with this collection, all my NI stuff and my UVI falcon i doubt ill ever need another VST.............but i'll probably get more anyway. :D

I'm not a big synth user, but...watching this video, I learned a few things about Cubase that I didn't know. Thanks!
Very welcome. Glad you got something out of it!
I really loved your explanation, actually had no idea what todo with my aturia
I’m glad it helped. The arturia synths definitely have a lot to offer!
Awesome work by you. Excellent
Thank You 🙏🏼

hi..can we use multi out midi channel with only one intsrument analog lab v?
There's just one thing I'm still trying to figure out is how to record, or make a track. Unless that isn't a thing because I could not find anything about it
Dude, great!! Thank you...
Thank you for watching Ben

@@Tutorial_ism can you switch off the arp feature and just play or draw your own arps? Thanks
Yes you can

Yeah, you have to capture them manually. It’s always the first thing I do when I get a new plugin!
There's no stabs?
This looks very good. But is it with having if I have Omnisphere already? Omnishere has like +10 000 presets out of the box.

@@allanline262 I see. Thanks.
super noob here, what daw program using with the analog lab v?
Cubase
Arturia website: "Its library of 2000 presets". How come you have more than 10k presets? Thank you for cool review, very useful
Yes, sorry about that. I wasn’t aware when I was recording that you will have a different number of presets depending on which other Arturia products you own
If you have no other Arturia products it's around 2k presets, if you also have Collevtion V8, which is almost all of their instruments, you get that 11k or more.
Hey i wanted to ask, i bought analog lab 5 and it’s only giving me 3000 presets, you think you can help me out?
Reading through the comments it seems everyone has a different amount depending on which Arturia plugins they already own. I wasn’t aware of that when I made the video. I thought it would be the same for everyone
What midi keyboards do you use?
Keyboard is Novation Impulse. Controller is Nektar P1
Hey man! Thanks for the video. Just to confirm. You have entire V Collection 8, not just Analog Lab V right?
Hi mate. Yes, I have the whole collection
@@Tutorial_ism Cool!
@Si Ro Correct
I bought it a few weeks ago but I have like 2000 presets not 11,000 is it because you bought soundbanks?
There are a whole bunch of free packs in the store within the plugin, but I don’t think 9000. Maybe it also loads up the presets from the V collection. I have to admit, I never did read the manual for this plugin!!!!
@@Tutorial_ism oh okay thanks 🙏🏼 great video!
Thanks
There are different versions.. X collection has it all..
I dont know why, I just bought arturia keylab essential, and installed analog lab V, but I dont like the synth sounds library, better on garageband sound library than this, I compare it because its the same free vst given from buying a hardware, how about you ?
I have never used Garage band, but if that is what you like then that is what you should use - and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise!
crap....i bought it yesterday otherwise i would've used your affiliate link for sure..... looking forward to diving in.....with this collection, all my NI stuff and my UVI falcon i doubt ill ever need another VST.............but i'll probably get more anyway. :D
Yes mate, sounds like you are good to go for a while.... but if you ever want to add to Lab V with the whole collection, you know where to come!!!!
Well... You’ve managed to make that sound almost completely uninspiring.
Thanks Steve. Glad you found at least a little bit of inspiration!
