Acid V
The deal
$99 at KVR Marketplace (down from $149), 33% off. Deal ends August 19, 2026.
What it is
Acid V is Arturia's component-level emulation of the classic TB-303 bass synth, rebuilt with modern additions like a 2-octave sub oscillator, 14 distortion algorithms, and 4 FX slots with 17 algorithms. It ships with an advanced scale-based sequencer and over 350 sequence presets, so it can produce both faithful acid-house squelch and more mutated, evolving bass textures.
Who it's for
Producers working in techno, house, electro, or any bass-driven electronic genre who want authentic acid-line character without hunting down vintage hardware. It also suits sound designers who want a sequencer-first workflow for building movement into a patch rather than just tweaking static tones.
Key features
- Component-level TB-303 circuit modeling captures the original's nonlinear character
- A 2-octave sub oscillator extends the low end beyond the original hardware's range
- The onboard sequencer supports scale-based patterns with 350+ presets for instant groove ideas
- Three modulators and 4 FX slots (17 algorithms) let you push the sound well past a standard 303 clone
