The LX-24 makes Arturia FX Collection worth it alone.
Others that should get a lot of use are the choruses, flanger, phaser, and delays.
That is, if you like old-school rack FX units as much as I do.

I'm also currently using Arturia's Comp FET-76 as my 1176 model. I wish they did an LA-2A model too.

Speaking of Arturia's compressors, any opinions on Comp TUBE-STA?
It's a model of the Gates STA-Level compressor from the 1950s. It's a vacuum tube vari-mu compressor that was a staple in American radio, particularly for voice. The STA-Level has a reputation for adding weight to the low-end for the "boss radio voice."

So far I've tried it on a few things but haven't been able to click with it. It seems to make everything quieter and it gets fuzzy really quickly. I end up preferring the Comp VCA-65 or the UAD dbx 160 for bass guitar.

And while it shares some superficial cosmetics with the LA-2A, they are nothing alike.

Which one of the Arturia FX? Or do you mean all of them have this amount of latency?

Post

yes, most of them have 44 or 32 samples

I think its quite good, if you spend some time with it. Especially using the Advanced - Panel with its Detection - Mode and SC - Options. The overall sweetspot is tiny though and needs to be dialed in carefully. Also keeping in Mind the obvious, that Input and Output are linked (8 in the bottom/left corner) by default and you will need to compensate the Input - Compression - Level. Still a unique and useful Plugin imho.

I think that's due to the internal oversampling.
When you set higher sampling rate to the project, latency may go away.

ok, thanks but when you use a chain of Arturia FX , you are stacking and adding a lot of latency, no ?
I have checked and found :
32 samples : Clavinet CMI diode 609 tube STA 32 sitral 295 farfisa filter mini dx7 jup8v3 matrix12 pre 1973 pre tridA pre V76 Prophet v3 SEM solina stage73 synclavier vox continental wurli
44 samples : everything else
48 samples : Prophet 5
49 samples : rev spring 636
50 samples : rev plate-140
51 samples : filter ms20
64 samples : piano v2/v3
96 samples : Cold Fire OPAMP21
100 samples : Bus Force
108 samples : Tube Culture
176 samples : fragment
184 samples : tape meloffi
252 samples : Fet 76 et VCA 65

^^^ Kind of deal breaker, isn't it?

by the way, that tape mello thing is great, one of the best tape emulators i tried

I actually didn't like them that much, fragments has been the most interesting so far for me.

I know about the input/output link button. That's why I don't understand why they didn't do the same thing for their preamp plugins.

As it turns out, TUBE-STA is very sensitive to the source material. That's not surprising, since it is tube modeled. When I had tried it out, it was on an overdriven bass guitar going through a tube amp in TONEX. So this tube→tube chain was overloading TUBE-STA, causing it to get fuzzy and quiet.

When I tried TUBE-STA on a drum buss a little bit ago, it reacted quite nicely, and the sweet spot wasn't that small after all. Pretty much any setting did something nice.
