Organic pads, generative sequences and bright keys for Arturia SEM V and Analog Lab V.
Compatibility note: Seminal is designed for Arturia SEM V2 and is not compatible with the newer SEM V3 (introduced in V Collection 11). The presets still work with Analog Lab.
Seminal is a collection of 117 original presets, specifically crafted for Arturia SEM V and Analog Lab. This pack offers a rich palette of sounds, with a particular focus on organic pads, generative sequences, and bright synth keys, showcasing the versatility of the Oberheim SEM synth. These presets are designed to highlight the unique qualities of Arturia SEM V, making them an essential addition for producers looking to explore the sonic depth of this renowned synth.
The original Oberheim SEM (Synthesizer Expander Module) is known for its multimode filter, which allows transitions between low-pass, notch, high-pass, and band-pass filters. This distinctive filter design has inspired many modern synths, including the Sequential OB-6. The Seminal pack takes full advantage of this feature, offering both classic Oberheim sounds and more intricate soundscapes with long, generative sequences that make use of SEM V’s advanced capabilities.
Previously known as the Arturia SEM V Presets pack, Seminal retains all the meticulously crafted sounds under a new name. It’s perfect for those wanting to recreate the Oberheim sound, as well as for artists and producers who want to push the boundaries of synth presets. With Seminal, users gain access to a diverse range of sounds, from classic analog tones to evolving sequences.
All synth tracks are Seminal presets.
To use the Seminal presets, you must have either Arturia SEM V2 or Arturia Analog Lab. Analog Lab is available in a free version called Analog Lab Play, which is compatible with these presets.
These presets will not work in the newer "SEM V3" plugin released as part of V Collection 11.
