Arturia have just released Rev LX-24, emulation of the Lexicon 224 reverb. I'm seeing the full fx collection on my account for €129 and I'm damn tempted if for nothing else than the Sitral-295. Anybody use this collection and can comment?

I have fx2but not 3.

The sitral is good but not worth updating for alone imo. The rest of the fx are pretty good too but I am guessing you probably have alternatives for them already.

Well... just went for the GAS, still exploring the LX-24 (first impression is good). Also the Dist ColdFire is not included in the FX3.. sigh, there is always a downside... why arturia...

Was holding on to grab the eareverb2, which sounds amazing, maybe next time :D

Am I right in saying that the crossgrade to V Collection is even cheaper if you have FX Collection (especially on sale)?

Can't say for sure, I already have the V-Collection 9, can't see the upgrade price. But I've got the FX2 > FX3 for 99€, meaning I've got three new devices, OPAMP-21, Tube-Culture, Rev LX-24.
Considering the the current price of the Rev LX-24.

My opinion on FX3, top everyday tools: COMP VCA-65, Efx Fragments, Chorus Dimension. Due to the long list of other vst's lol, I still have to discover and use the rest of the tools.

I've see your interest in the sitral ( in another thread, yes I'm a lurker), i've compared the 295 EQ from Ekssperimental Sounds, and there are nothing a like, dare to say.

Green line = EQ Sitral 295 from Arturia.

I really, really like Ekss's 295. That's the only reason I'd want the Arturia one. I'm a sucker for a good Dimension Chorus so that one has my eye too. I just looked on my Arturia account. I've got MS-20, Jun-6, Rev Plate-140 and Tape mello-fi. Got them all free. That's probably why I'm seeing an upgrade deal of €129.
Just wondering how much the crossgrade to V goes down to when they've got a sale on and you own FX Collection.

Nothing from the FX Collection is a must have, but nice to have if you remember to use them.

Arturia has been the best support I've ever had. My Keylab 88 keys were going out and I'm one month from the warranty expiring and they've really handle paying for shipping both ways professionally ($300 cost). C4 and F4 weren't working and got fixed but the first day getting my Keylab back I noticed E3 not working. A rep from support apologized and offered two free plug-ins which (I chose Bus Force and efx Fragments) for having to ship it out yet again. Arturia really is a solid company!!

I have FX collection 2. I use the sitral to tame the mud in my often bass-heavy mixing. it is a super easy-to-use eq. I love the filters included in this collection too. The plate reverb is amazing too. The delays in this collect are also good. Overall the devices have character. They play well in the rack. As for 3, I will likely upgrade soon.

Damn this is so tempting, and at another time I would've been all over it, but I must stop the spending! ugggh :lol:

The new reverb sounds great btw. And the advanced features seem to make it quite versitile.
