The essence of '60s go-go and '80s new wave, nothing sounds quite like the Farfisa combo organ.

The Farfisa hit the pop stage several years before synthesizers. Portable and polyphonic, its reedy voice was heard everywhere.

Thanks to The Arturia Farfisa V, it never really went away. Their TAE(R) analog modeling technology recreates every nuance of the Farfisa Compact DeLuxe. How far did we turn up the microscope? To the level of how the vintage circuits passed electrons around, which gets way more realistic than even the best samples. Whether you're after a retro-cool infusion or something completely different, Farfisa V is an instant inspiration generator.
