Billed as a collection of “Audio effects you’ll actually use”, FX Collection 3 is Arturia’s flagship effects bundle. Unlike the French company’s instrument bundle the V Collection, FX Collection isn’t just a bundle of vintage emulations - it comes with a few totally original digital effects.
The effects are broadly separated into seven categories: Distortion, Spatial & Reverb, Preamps and EQ, Delays, Modulation, Filters, and Compressors.
Within those categories you’ll find emulations of classic effects units from throughout the ages such as Arturia’s take on the classic EMT140 plate reverb (Rev Plate-140), Neve 1073 channel strip (Pre 1973), the chorus from the Roland Juno-6 (Chorus Jun-6), and many more.
There are also exciting totally original digital effects in FX Collection 3 providing the bundle with plenty of modern sound design power. Delay ETERNITY, Bus FORCE and Rev INTENSITY are all effects with no basis in specific historical hardware units
In total you will find 26 effects in Arturia FX Collection 3, four of which are new additions for this upgrade. All of the effects included in the bundle are available to purchase as standalone products from Arturia. However, buying each effect individually would cost you north of $2,500. Individually, each effect is available for $99, and FX Collection 3 comes in at a very reasonable $399.
