Features:

UVI's Enormous Vintage Synth Collection in One Package
Sound Based on Multi-samples of Only Excellent Condition Vintage Synths
From Looks to Sound, Very Realistic

The Ultimate Vintage Synth Collection

The UVI VINTAGE VAULT 2 is a bundle of vintage synths selected from UVI's enormous collection of instruments. With this package though, new machines have been added to the collection, resulting in the ultimate vintage synth collection.

But the collection doesn't just stop at vintage analog synths. Also included are the digital synths that took the world by storm back in the day, even workstations that were so highly priced that almost nobody could afford them. The number of variations is staggering, and to top it off, they've included a package that covers nearly every single rhythm machine ever made— the BeatBox Anthology 2.

The Sound of the Real Machines

For VINTAGE VAULT 2, the multi-samples were obtained by passing real hardware machines were through ultra high-end studio equipment. What's more is that there is absolutely no quality lost, as only those machines in the best-condition were used for recording.

Using these samples as a foundation, sounds were made by sound designers using programming and scripts.

Additionally, the instruments in VINTAGE VAULT 2 were designed with a common interface, so the method of operation is common too. If you master one instrument, you've mastered them all as there is no need to memorize a number of different interfaces or operation standards. We think this is a particularly well done feature.
