Piano World Home Page Forums Our Most Popular Forums Digital Pianos - Electronic Pianos - Synths & Keyboards Arturia Piano V and Analog Lab

I have an Arturia Keylab 49 Mk. II on the way and it comes with instrument modeling software. Specifically, it comes with Arturia's Piano V collection, and Analog Lab 4. I'm also aware of Arturia's Collection V version 7 and how much more control you have over the modeled instruments. Analog Lab features all the same instruments but largely operates on presets with greatly reduced ability to tweak with the sounds.

I'm curious if anyone here has any experience with any of these products and what are your thoughts on them? Quality, sound, customization worth the cost difference, etc. I'll grant that I'm already leaning towards putting out the money for the Collection as considerably ability to customize the sounds is very appealing to me. I've already read reviews indicated different preferences towards or against modeled sounds vs. sampled sounds but I'd sill like to hear what others here think.

You probably know already, Analog Lab is available as a free demo until June, the full instruments (contained in collection v) are also all available as 20 min demos individually so you can compare the differences.

Yes, and it comes with the KeyLab midi controller so I'll get that without dropping any money. Thanks.
