Analog synths, digital synths, samplers, classic organs, and electric pianos are all present and running on powerful DSP, optimized to ensure the best performance possible.
1300+ Sounds Instantly

4 Effects

Assignable FX
Make impactful adjustments when playing live

  • AstroLab features dedicated delay and reverb and two insert FX, customizable on AstroLab and Analog Lab. Create unique settings for each preset, so you have all the controls you need when playing live.
  • Choose the room shape from jazz club to factory hall, select your favorite delay, and choose from twelve insert effects to add denaturing distortion or superwide chorus to any sound.

No need to compromise advanced in-the-moment modulation

  • Go a step further and assign AstroLab’s FX to any instrument parameter when combined with V Collection, Arturia’s reference suite of software instruments.
  • Choose an evolving CS-80 arp preset in Analog Lab, open the full instrument view, then edit the macros to control any parameter of your choice. Save the preset, and send it to AstroLab's library for dynamic custom modulation when playing live.
True Analog Emulation
TAE (True Analog Emulation) is Arturia's exclusive technology that accurately reproduces the defining sonic qualities of analog synthesizers. It recreates the characteristics of analog oscillators in amazing detail, transparency, and clarity, and emulates the exact properties of analog filters that give each classic instrument its unique sound. Soft clipping adds even more punch and presence.
Physical Modeling
Not all keyboard legends use circuits and analog components. To reproduce the incredible acoustic and electroacoustic instruments found within V Collection, Arturia uses state-of-the-art physical-modeling technology. By analyzing how each instrument creates its own unique sound, Arturia's engineers use advanced mathematical algorithms that recreate every aspect of the original.
