Given that Pianoteq is on V6 and the Arturia Piano V2, and how bad it was in the first version (at least for realistic pianos - it was OK for weird piano-ish sounds), it's a huge improvement and at a faster rate than Pianoteq managed. No it isn't up there yet but I find it to be usable now and enjoy playing it.SJ_Digriz wrote:It is less terrible, but still not quite in the pianoteq zone. Almost, but not quite. And even in Pianoteq there's still too often I still hear that squishy attack thing. PV2 a little more so. I wouldn't use either of a good sample library, and of course would use the real thing when possible over samples.ghettosynth wrote:Three new ARTURIA synths are not worth $200 to me. In any case, I'd get four because I'm still on V4, but, I know that Arturia will discount further and I have enough stuff to play with now that I can wait for a sale.rod_zero wrote:200 isn't that much considering you get 3 new synths, but I guess Arturia have declined their products a lot.
Interesting to hear the improved piano, it was terrible the first time. But it still seems far away from pianoteq.

Did Arturia ever mention why Spark vanished from the V-Collection after v4 ?

I’m taking a screenshot of that claim, and I’ll be demanding a refund if this upgrade is dropped to $99 in six months.jsp1979 wrote:Agree. Wow.

I have the v5 collection and upgrade price is $199 so your price appears to be a better deal
At Arturia, they CLAIM that the upgrade price will never be lower based on the products I own. I'm not sure if I believe that but they make that statement several times on various pages.

Why are the upgrade prices so out of whack?
I own V collection 4 and 5 and the cost of the upgrade is $199, only $50 less than someone with 2 of your products!!! NOT COOL ARTURIA!

I've got to be honest and say that the CMI is the most appealing of the new releases for me. I used to fantasise about owning one of those.
