V Collection 8 added the PatchWorks sound bank. V Collection 7 was the first to include a sound bank (a collection of presets called Synthopedia ) in addition to the variety of virtual instruments. )Īrturia's drum sampler plugin, Spark 2, was included in V Collection 4, but it was dropped from subsequent V Collection releases, although it's still an actively supported product. (They originally called it the Arturia Software Centre. V Collection 2.0 and 3.0 used the Syncrosoft USB licenser for copy protection (the same thing as the Steinberg USB eLicenser), while V Collection 4 was the first version distributed with and activated by the Arturia Software Center (ASC). There's also a tab with quick details on each version of the collection (release date, intro price, total # of products), etc. I collected all the information I could gather on the various iterations of Arturia's trademark series to build a worksheet that compares the contents of every version. Ever since then, Arturia has blessed us with a new V Collection about every two years.
Five years later, they released another bundle, the newly-dubbed V Collection 2.0 adding two new instruments that emulated three vintage synthesizers (Jupiter-8V emulated the Roland Jupiter-8 and Prophet V emulated both the Prophet 5 and the Prophet VS). This collection was only available for purchase during the month of June that year. It featured four emulations of classic synthesizers: Moog Modular V, CS-80V, ARP 2600 V, and minimoog V- all for the low, low price of $649USD (€555). In May of 2005, French music software developer Arturia announced a limited-time bundle they called the Vintage Collection pack.
