Key Features
The Arturia Acid-V is a software instrument that pays homage to the iconic bass synth that revolutionized the acid and rave sound. Immerse yourself in the raw, biting, and in-your-face analog sound that defined an era, but with the added convenience and versatility of modern features. This software emulation of the classic TB-303 bass synth offers an enhanced experience with oscillator waveforms including square and triangle, a two-octave sub-oscillator, and vibrato per oscillator. It also includes the signature resonant low-pass filter of the original hardware, ensuring that you can achieve that unmistakable acid sound.
Perfect for customising your sound, it comes equipped with 14 built-in distortion algorithms, allowing you to add grit and saturation to your sound for extra bite. The powerful 64-step sequencer and arpeggiator with polymetric modes, transmutation, and scale modes provide endless possibilities for creating ever-evolving bass grooves and mutated sequences. You can even drag and drop patterns into MIDI blocks for seamless integration into your workflow.

Acid V is a circuit-accurate remodeling of the iconic silver box that redefined synth bass sound. Now bigger and badder, Acid-V retains the raw, biting, and punchy character of the original while adding a 2-octave sub oscillator, vibrato, and more. This makes it perfect for crafting massive EDM bass, screaming filtered textures, wild analog FM tones, and beyond.
Acid-V's mutated sequencing allows you to warp, transform, and evolve sequences creatively. The vastly expanded sequencer maintains the spirit of the 303, allowing you to generate patterns, mutate & randomize, and lock in with musical & modern scales. This gives you the freedom to create unique and innovative compositions.
Acid & distortion go hand-in-hand, and Acid-V delivers all flavors of crunch with 14 algorithms, ranging from valve to bit-crush. Whether you prefer the warmth of analog or the precision of digital, Acid-V allows you to customize your drive and wet/dry blend to suit your desired sound.
Experience the next level of sound design with Acid-V's advanced panel. Transition seamlessly from a hands-on bass box to an acid sound design playground with just one click. The advanced panel allows you to dive deep into Acid-V's sequencing, modulation, and colorful effects. Modernize and make your sound unique by utilizing the 17 available effects.
Acid-V comes packed with over 150 expertly-crafted presets and over 350 pre-programmed sequences, providing you with a wide range of options and quick inspiration to kickstart your creativity.
Take control of Acid-V's sound with the waveform selector. The classic sawtooth and square waveforms are perfectly modeled, offering distinct harmonic characteristics for your basslines. Fine-tune Acid-V's voice with the row of controls dedicated to adjusting its signature shrieking filter. You can ride the cutoff, push resonance to the limit, and find punchy sweet spots with the envelope controls.
Add more depth and contrasting texture to Acid-V's sound using the two octaves of sub oscillator. With three waveforms to choose from, you have the flexibility to create a wide variety of sonic possibilities. Explore the vibrato control to dial in subtle pitchy movements or go full FM with cranked rates. From slow, evolving detuned melodies to FM-like timbres, the vibrato control adds a unique touch to your compositions.
When it's time to arrange your track in your DAW, Acid-V makes it easy. You can export your sequence by simply dragging and dropping it into your preferred digital audio workstation. Additionally, you have the option to turn the sequencer off and focus on arranging your track within your DAW, providing you with maximum flexibility and creative freedom.
