SEM V

Synthesizer
Arturia

SEM V is a polyphonic software synthesizer that faithfully emulates the Oberheim SEM, a legendary 1974 analog synthesizer expansion module. It combines the original SEM's iconic multimode filter and subtractive synthesis architecture with modern enhancements like a second LFO, sub-oscillator, arpeggiator, and effects section. Using Arturia's TAE technology, SEM V delivers authentic analog character with aliasing-free oscillators and direct filter circuit modeling.

Available for:VSTVST3AUAAXSTANDALONE
