I just received an amazin upgrade offer - 400 Euro. Phahaha.

But I cannot see single upgrades...
I own V-Collection 9, FX Collection 4, Minifreak V and the Acid V and got a offer to upgrade for 199 Euro so i think i will wait for V11 instead

I guess it is because I got V9 for 100 Euro...

On the contrary this is the smoothest a version update has gone for me. It's saturating my bandwidth even with my work VPN on.

Edit just downloaded the individual installers for them and all fine now

This is a problem with ASC. You have to manually allow complete system access.

A couple of really rather odd decisions from Arturia with this release - namely the addition of the CP-70 V and the Wurli update. I can't believe that anybody was clamouring for more piano colours, as there's already plenty to choose from in that regard in the collection. Of all the synths they could've chosen to emulate, the CP-70 V feels like a totally uninspiring choice. And then why the hell choose to rebuild the Wurli?! I would've much preferred any of the older synths to be rebuilt before that! If they would've asked me to make a list of which ones to rebuild in order of preference, then the Wurli would've been very near the bottom of that list.

Analog Lab doesn't seem to be loading. Getting a GUI error for a png file. Anyone getting this?

Even though you have most of it already?

Same MO as these guys always do - the first few weeks of a new "V" collection launch sees them trying to get the early "owners"/adopters to "bite" on what appears to be a decent price like 199.00 - but it's really 100.00 more than it will be if you wait a few months.

V Collection 9 was May 10, 2022 and was also $199.00 at the time. I waited about 4-5 months and scored it for $99.00. And I still have not really scratched the surface of the overwhelming expanse of it all.

There is no reason to be fast on this collection - unless you REALLY need some of this new stuff and REALLY want to pay more.

Yeah my upgrade is 149 since I purchased minifreak, and there's no way I'm spending $149 on this.

What are other people's upgrade prices?

I am guessing $149.00 would be the floor for "best" pricing right now.

If anyone does better than that - would love to know how.

199 to upgrade from V9 to VX is 6 new instruments so 33£$€ each. That looks about right for a new VST instrument in today’s market, given all the competition and with sale prices being where they are.
Problem is you’ve got to WANT all six of them at 33 each else there is no bundle bonus I.e. I’ll take the additional stuff I may or may not use as a bonus.
At 99 or 17£$€ each it gets easy to buy in to the stuff you’re not really enthused by.

$150 (I have 9, Acid V and Minifreak) for... a Minimoog that won't be best in class, a Wurli that won't be best in class, a piano I don't care about and some of those "we do the work for you" sample libraries. Pass.

Love Arturia's dedication to expanding on the Freaks over time but this update for this price. Yuck.

OK here on Win 10 Pro. Took about 2 mins to download but 15 minutes to install though.

I'm on a Mac. Think I've had this problem before. Just done a complete uninstall & will try again

Same for me, and I already own almost ALL of the instruments except Augmented Brass and Strings. No way I will upgrade at this price.
