Arturia
About Arturia:
One of the marks of a great instrument manufacturer is versatility, and that's something Arturia has in spades. With a variety of software as well as hardware MIDI controllers and synths that offer great choices to musicians from beginners to industry veterans, they've done a lot to make electronic music accessible for everyone. If you're looking for the perfect place to take care of your physical and virtual equipment needs all at once, this is it.
With Arturia's software instruments, you don't have to overspend for sounds you'll never use. Instead, their modular "V" tools are available separately so you can choose only the instruments you need for your digital production. But if you decide that you want the full selection, you can have it easily with the Arturia V-Collection 3. In this pack, you get an electric piano, 9 synthesizers and 30 classic drum machines without having to pick them up separately.
Of course, to take advantage of all those excellent virtual instruments, you'll need at least one controller. Arturia can definitely help you out here; their hardware is absolutely cutting-edge and there's something for every artist. For example, are you frustrated with compact controllers that don't have the range of a full piano? The KeyLab 88 Keyboard Controller solves that in a hurry, with its full 88-key manual. If, on the other hand, compact is what you're looking for, try the MiniLab Keyboard or BeatStep Controller & Sequencer on for size.
When it comes to synths, Arturia has some amazing options in the MicroBrute and MiniBrute. If you want something really special, take a look at the wood-edged Arturia MiniBrute SE Mono Synth, which proves single-handedly that analog is still alive and kicking - plus, it has a retro look that goes great with your vintage gear. Need a rhythm accompaniment for your performances or recordings? No sweat: the SparkLE Compact Hybrid Drum Machine has it covered.
Whatever you're looking for from electronic music, Arturia is ready with the gear to make it happen. Their MIDI controllers, synthesizers and virtual instruments are second to none, and you won't need a mortgage to fit this equipment into your budget. That makes Arturia a fantastic option for any musician, no matter your level of experience.
