Arturia Analog Factory Experience Hybrid Synthesizer with Keyboard Controller

Arturia's Analog Factory Experience offers the immediacy of a hardware synthesizer combined with the flexibility of a software based solution. How is it possible? Analog Factory Experience is a unique combination of a software synthesizer that brings 3500 sounds, along with a high quality dedicated hardware controller. Once the Software is started, you can put your mouse away, all functions can be activated from within the keyboard controller: select a sound to play, modify this sound, recall snapshots... This is a true hands-on experience: simple, straightforward and fun.

Analog Factory comes with 3500 preset sounds. These sounds have been at the center of contemporary music production for the last 30 years. From the starship funky leads of the 70’s to the contemporary Hip-Hop basses, from the 80’s Pop Leads to modern Sound Track Special Effects, if you heard a synthesizer sound somewhere, there is a strong likelihood you will find it inside Analog Factory.

The Analog Factory velocity-sensitive keyboard places a wide dynamic range at the player’s fingertips. Smooth key action, keys shaped for comfortable glissando playing, silent operation come as a result of CME’s expertise in the production of controller keyboards. 32 keys and a sturdy aluminum case make the Analog Factory keyboard the ideal solution for the contemporary musician who is always on the go.

All presets in Analog Factory have been carefully selected from the Arturia Classic Synths: minimoog V, Moog Modular V, CS-80 V, ARP2600 V, Jupiter-8V, Prophet 5 and Prophet VS. These TAE powered sounds offer unparalleled audio quality.

It is also a very versatile instrument: all sounds are dramatically modifiable, which makes this software stand apart from any sample-based collection of sounds.
