Difference between V collection & Keylab?

[HubyBlake]

Hi, I'm just wondering what the difference is between the Analog Lab that comes with Keylab 88 and the one that comes with V collection. Is it the same thing? Is there overlap? Or are they different?

I have the V collection already, just wondering whether I should get the Keylab88

Thanks so much.

Keylab 88 is basically The Analog Experience (25, 49, 61) rebranded with an updated controller, and some new-(er) software features.
The V Collection will work with your existing controller, even if it's a legacy product.  Unless you currently do not have an 88 key controller, and you want one, especially one that integrates so easily with the V Collection, there's not much of a reason to invest in it.

I replaced a hardware synth of many years (Alesis QS7) to get the Analog Experience 49 partly to go completely soft synth while reducing the footprint on my desk, and it works flawlessly with all of my other soft synths.

Additionally, the V-Collection offers some deeper editing features over the "lab" versions, but I've found that the features within the "lab" versions and most of the factory presets are suitable for just about any recording need.

both analog lab software are the same the reason you can go deeper and edit more is for every artuia plugin you own it offers you too open it in analog lab to combine with other plugins and create more complex patchs .but you still start off with the same number of patchs in both.
