What are the expansions added in V Collection X and 11?

Hi, I’m still on V Collection 9 and trying to get an idea of all the different content between the releases. I have found the “what’s new” pages for both V Collection X and 11, however while they both mention that some new exclusive expansions are included, neither one of them lists what the names of the expansions are, or what instruments they’re for.

Is this info listed in Arturia Software Center if you own the products? If so, could anyone here tell me the names of the new expansions included with V Collection 10 and 11?

Thanks!

The expansion offer for V11 comprises the following, which are in the store: Orchestral waves, generation super saw and jersey beats.

You may have a special offer price in you account depending on your ownership of other products. The offer is likely time limited.

There was a similar offer for V10 but I cannot remember the bundle details. However, those collections will still be in the store. You could wait for a sale to purchase those.

You can find the VC11 expansions here - https://www.arturia.com/store/presets-sound-banks
They’re not included with V Collection, but are on an intro offer currently for the bundle of 3.
You can also see which instruments are featured within each bank, all compatible with Analog Lab.

Thank you for that clarification on VC11. It appears that V Collection X did come with three unnamed expansions (at least, according to the press release):

V Collection X offers the broadest selection of instruments yet, giving music makers, producers and composers a comprehensive array of reference musical tools and sounds enhanced for today’s production workflow. The collection features 2 entirely new instruments, 2 bottom-up rebuilds and 4 highly-requested modern synths and composition sounds, alongside 3 exclusive preset expansion packs.

Any idea what those were?

V Collection X had:

Inward Universe

A collection of emotive ambient spaces and sonic textures that speak to the depths of experience - from the introspective to the euphoric. Includes modern Augmented presets, Piano V3 and a selection of V Collection X instruments.

Inner City Soul

A meeting place between classic soul essence and modern music mastery, for a taste of the past that’s ready for the future. Highlights the Mini V4, Wurli V3 and a selection of V Collection X instruments.

Hyper Rave

A broad-stroke-brush of underground innovation, from intricate and enigmatic sounds to 4-to-the-floor fury. Includes Acid V, Minifreak V and a selection of V Collection X instruments.

@Talahamut - That’s great info, thanks! Do you happen to know if X included any other expansions, or was that it? (Like were those three NEW expansions for collection X, or were they the only ones available?) Asking because prior expansions like Synthopedia and Patchworks have been dropped from V Collection lineups in the past.

Some expansions that were included with VC9, for example: Nexus Cinematic, Piano Imaginarium, Platinum Piano- were they in VC X or 11?

I’m pretty sure those were released for purchase at the same time as X. I don’t think any of those past preset packs were included with their V Collection, but they were available for purchase (and still are) and may have been included in some kind of bundle package or at a discounted price.
