Analog Lab
Analog Lab is an AU (Audio Unit) plugin from Arturia that hosts thousands of synthesizer and keyboard presets drawn from Arturia's V Collection, including emulations of classic instruments like the Jup-8, Moog Minimoog, ARP 2600, Prophet V, and Buchla Easel. It is used by producers, performers, sound designers and session musicians to quickly access world-class vintage keyboard and synth sounds within their DAW. The plugin offers an intuitive preset browser, macro controls for sound tweaking, effects (reverb, delay, distortion), and multi-mode layering and splitting. Analog Lab is distributed as part of the Arturia Software Center, a unified hub for installing and managing Arturia instruments and plugins.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionAnalog Lab is a component plugin managed through Arturia Software Center, not as a standalone download. To update to the native Apple Silicon build, open Arturia Software Center on your Mac, navigate to the Analog Lab entry, and click Update if available. Arturia has shipped native Apple Silicon builds of Analog Lab V (AU, VST3, and AAX formats) since version 5.x, so updating through Software Center will automatically serve the Universal Binary version on M-series Macs. After updating, the plugin will work natively in your DAW with better performance and battery life compared to the Rosetta-translated version. If you do not have Arturia Software Center installed yet, download it from Arturia's main website and use it to install and manage all Arturia plugins and instruments going forward.
