1. WELCOME TO ACID V! Arturia would like to thank you for purchasing our Acid V. It’s a faithful recreation of the now legendary TB-303 Bass Line, an unassuming little bass synth and sequencer module that started out as a commercial flop, then rose to meteoric popularity in the hands of sound explorers in genres including acid, techno, and house.
(for example, the B-3 was meant to emulate a pipe organ; the tine electric piano, an acoustic piano) but found their own true voices because their true audiences found them. Arturia - User Manual Acid V - WELCOME TO Acid V!
Slide, Accent, and Vibrato buttons on the main panel act as overrides, each adding its effect to the sequence. Or, you can simply turn off the internal sequencer and record Acid V in External mode, as you would any other virtual instrument — the choice is yours.
Four effects slots featuring a choice of 17 effects from our latest V Collection • Effect categories include Spatial, Distortion, Dynamics, Modulation, and Filter/EQ • Three advanced Modulators with intuitive workflow to create complex movements Arturia - User Manual Acid V - WELCOME TO Acid V!
We know — we’ve probably left someone important out, so we’re glad user manuals don’t have comments sections! Now, let’s get onto the business of having fun with Acid V. Arturia - User Manual Acid V - WELCOME TO Acid V!

! In standalone mode, Acid V listens for all MIDI channels, so there’s no need to specify a channel. Tempo sets a base tempo for features inside Acid V such as LFO and effects •...
Acid V's interface looks the same in plug-in mode as in standalone mode. Acid V comes in VST2, VST3, Audio Unit (AU), and AAX plug-in formats, for use in all major DAW software such as Ableton Live, Cubase, Logic, Pro Tools, Studio One, and more.
If you haven’t done so already, launch Acid V as a plug-in or as a stand-alone instrument. If you have a MIDI controller set up, use it to play some notes on Acid V. You might first need to activate your MIDI controllers in the MIDI Settings (see above). You can also use your mouse to play the on-screen keyboard or use the keys of your computer keyboard.
3. MAIN CONTROLS From here you can control all key aspects of Acid V: its sound and selection of its pattern sequencing, arpeggiator, and external modes. You can also select sequences from the pattern browser and transpose them using the onscreen keyboard. Since the heart of the 303 is really its pattern capabilities, we should mention right here that you don't actually program patterns here.
Control key (Windows) or Command key (macOS) and use the wheel to fine-tune as well. 3.1.4. Double-click for default Double-click on any knob to return it to its factory default setting. Arturia - User Manual Acid V - MAIN CONTROLS...
3.2. Core Sound Controls This is the main synth section of Acid V, replicating the monophonic sound engine of the TB-303. 3.2.1. Waveform Simply a toggle switch, this selects a buzzy sawtooth wave or more hollow square wave. On the original hardware, this switch was found on the rear panel.
“money shot” aspect of the sound. Thus, what the accent knob is adjusting is really two things at once: the level of the volume (VCA) envelope, and the decay time of the filter envelope. Arturia - User Manual Acid V - MAIN CONTROLS...
Users of the original TB-303, or any recent hardware or software emulation focused exclusively on originality, may have wished they could thicken up its low end. After all, the original said “Bass Line” right on the panel. Acid V’s sub-oscillator grants this wish with three simple settings: 3.3.1.
3.5. Distortion Section Going far beyond the inherent dirtiness of the 303 sound, Acid V’s distortion circuit employs a set of algorithms from our distinctive FX Collection, curated specifically to enhance the 303 sound. 3.5.1. Drive Knob This sets the input or “pre-gain.” In other words, how “hot” the incoming signal will drive the distortion effect.
We invite you to explore these distortion types for yourself and pick the ones that suit your music best — each is either a little or a lot different from the other! Arturia - User Manual Acid V - MAIN CONTROLS...
MIDI controller will determine the notes in the arpeggio. 3.6.1.3. Ext mode External mode disables Acid V’s own pattern capabilities if you want to sequence it in a DAW, trigger it from an external MIDI sequencer, or just plug in your MIDI controller and play it like a super-cool bass monosynth.
♪ Remember that Acid V is a monophonic-only synth with last-note priority. 3.6.3. Legato playing and note order Acid V has particular behaviors when it comes to note play order when you’re triggering it from an external keyboard (or pad device). Here’s how to make them work for you.
[p.31], where you can do this in a more comprehensive, searchable way. Note that this will flip Acid V into the Sequencer/Arpeggiator page of the Advanced View, so you’ll need to click the Advanced button [p.77] to return to the main view.
3.7.7. Clipper All 303s clip with the accent and master output knobs set at maximum. This allows you to more easily clip the output stage of Acid V if a dirty sound is desired. It’s a separate feature from the other distortion [p.20]...
4. ADVANCED VIEW PART 1 - SEQUENCER At the heart of Acid V is a powerful 64-step sequencer and arpeggiator that dwarfs the capabilities of the original hardware, not to mention any modern emulation focused solely on vintage authenticity. Click the Advanced button [p.77]...
You can also set the maximum length directly in the Steps [p.34] field. Also, don’t miss the horizontal scroll bar along the bottom. It gives you access to the full 64 steps. Arturia - User Manual Acid V - ADVANCED VIEW PART 1 - SEQUENCER...
“Draw” quick sequences by sweeping the mouse cursor across the grid. 4.2.3. Adjusting the octave Acid V has a four-octave range for each step. Change the octave for a given step with the vertical slider at the top of the column.
4.2.5.3. How vibrato works Vibrato in Acid V is intentionally subtle, without the extreme depth you might hear on a synth meant for leads. The speed and amount are controlled by the large knobs in the Vibrato [p.19]...
DAW by grabbing the little icon that is generated. 4.2.6.2. Clear sequence Be careful with the eraser icon! It clears the entire sequence. Actually, if you accidentally clear a sequence, Acid V has extensive undo and history functions in the lower toolbar [p.78], so you can always go back in time.
You can import sequences by moving files in our proprietary format in the folder /Library/ Arturia/Samples/Acid V/User/Sequencer/User. Our Sequence Scales [p.32], especially the ”Acid” ones, can really make the most of imported sequences and, so to speak, 303-ify them. Arturia - User Manual Acid V - ADVANCED VIEW PART 1 - SEQUENCER...
The sliders below the note icons add a random factor. Each one changes the probability that its note will be played at a given step when the note randomizer [p.28] is in use. Arturia - User Manual Acid V - ADVANCED VIEW PART 1 - SEQUENCER...
4.2.10. Swing Swing is often described as a “behind the beat” rhythmic feel, and Acid V has a range of 50 to 75 percent, which you change by dragging up or down on the number. Fifty percent is closest to a “straight”...
4.2.11. Note playback order Acid V offers four options for note play order in Seq mode. Access them using the green arrow to the right of the “Playback” name field. Forward: Sequence plays from step 1 to its final step.
♪ One good use of the Density setting is for musical bridges or breaks where you want the bass line to be more sparse. Arturia - User Manual Acid V - ADVANCED VIEW PART 1 - SEQUENCER...
4.3. Arpeggiator mode In Arpeggiator mode, the sequencer in Acid V turns into an advanced arpeggiator. What’s the difference? Where the sequencer plays notes you specify for each step, the arpeggiator turns real-time note input from a connected MIDI controller into patterns that ascend, descend, or play in other orders you can set.
♪ The Playback [p.34] setting applies on top of whatever note order is chosen here, allowing for creative possibilities. Setting both to Random is particularly interesting! Arturia - User Manual Acid V - ADVANCED VIEW PART 1 - SEQUENCER...
Most arpeggiators have an overall setting for octave range, so you might have noticed the absence of one here. Remember that Acid V has a four-octave range for each step, and that this applies in Arp mode as well as Seq mode.
Before we get into how Modulators work, let’s cover how to assign one to a destination in Acid V. On each one of the Modulation tabs, there is an animated thumbnail that displays the waveform or action of that Modulator. Click on this thumbnail and drag it to whatever...
Modulator assigned to the destination will appear, color-coded to match the Modulator tab. Here is what Modulators 1 and 2 assigned to filter cutoff would look like: Arturia - User Manual Acid V - ADVANCED VIEW PART 2 - MODULATORS...
Page 47
This lets you shut off modulation only to that destination, while retaining the modulation amount you’ve set in case you turn it back on later. Arturia - User Manual Acid V - ADVANCED VIEW PART 2 - MODULATORS...
5.2. How Modulators work As we said, Modulators in Acid V can work like envelopes, LFOs, or like a mad scientist combined both into a hybrid and gave it superpowers. Basically, they make it easier than ever to turn what you see on the graph into what you hear.
You can create and save your own Modulator shapes in Acid V, but you need not ever worry about it if you’d rather just get on to making music. Modulators offer 18 shape presets, six of which can be accessed by clicking the six buttons shown above.
One: The modulation shape plays through once, i.e. more like an envelope • Loop: The modulation plays repeatedly and can retrigger from the start point based on a selectable event Arturia - User Manual Acid V - ADVANCED VIEW PART 2 - MODULATORS...
Page 51
Sequencer from the beginning. This lets you lock a modulation’s character to the musical statement you’re making with the series of notes in the Sequencer. Arturia - User Manual Acid V - ADVANCED VIEW PART 2 - MODULATORS...
5.2.5. Rate and tempo sync Of course, Modulators in Acid V sync to your project tempo — or not. The knob adjusts the rate. Click on the name field to bring up the options menu: • Hz: Unsynced, the Modulator free-runs and the rate is expressed in Hertz •...
Acid V effects are routed serially Effects routing in Acid V is “hard wired” as serial. The signal is first processed by the effect in the slot at far left, then simply moves from left to right. This makes sense, since Acid V a monophonic instrument and there’s no possibility of different voices or simultaneous...

6.5.4. Delay Delay is a generic term for any effect that makes a copy of an input sound and repeats it a short time later. There are three delay effects in Acid V, and this first one sounds good all around.
Sets the feedback amount of the delayed signal. Stereo Width Higher values increase the distance between the left and right iterations of the echoes Ping Pong Toggles alternating left/right echoes with exact rhythmic spacing Arturia - User Manual Acid V - ADVANCED VIEW PART 3 - EFFECTS...
Pitch Shift Adjusts the amount that the delayed signal is pitch-shifted relative to the incoming signal Stereo Offsets the delayed signal in the stereo picture Offset Arturia - User Manual Acid V - ADVANCED VIEW PART 3 - EFFECTS...
Ratio is how much you turn it down. Attack is how fast your parents react once it’s too loud. Release is how soon you turn it back up once they’re gone. Arturia - User Manual Acid V - ADVANCED VIEW PART 3 - EFFECTS...
The multiband compressor is probably the most complex effect type in Acid V, first of all because there are things you can only adjust by dragging in the graphical visualizer. It can work on up to three frequency bands, and you can use the two on/off buttons below the visualizer to turn the lower and/or upper bands off.

Cutoff (H) Adjusts the cutoff frequency of the filter Resonance Sets the resonance of the filter, which is a peak of frequencies clustering near the cutoff Arturia - User Manual Acid V - ADVANCED VIEW PART 3 - EFFECTS...
The EQ in Acid V has five bands, and you can adjust the frequency, gain (boost or cut), and Q (how wide the band is around the selected frequency) for each one. In fact, that ability to tweak the frequency and bandwidth is just what “parametric”...
6.5.11. Distortion Distortion offers the most algorithms of any Acid V effect. They’re derived algorithms from our flagship distortion effect called Dist COLDFIRE. There are many different kinds of signal distortion, each with its unique sonic signature – and they can transform sounds in ways ranging from subtle warmth to an all-out audio thunderstorm! There’s also a multi-mode...

6.5.17. BL-20 Flanger The BL-20 Flanger is based on the sound of Arturia's Flanger BL-20 plug-in, which is in turn based on the sound of the rare but beautiful-sounding Bel BF-20 hardware flanger from the 1970s. Control Description Wide Provides a wider stereo image by inverting the phase of the LFO modulating the right channel...
Sets the harmonic center for the modulation effect N Poles Determines the steepness of the phaser’s filter frequency response Stereo Gradually changes the phaser from mono to stereo output Arturia - User Manual Acid V - ADVANCED VIEW PART 3 - EFFECTS...
6.5.19. Stereo Pan Stereo Pan lets you automatically control and move the stereo position of the Acid V monophonic voice, to provide motion and breadth. Control Description Amount (V) Instead of a dry-wet slider, this sets the overall width of the panning...
7. USER INTERFACE This chapter covers everything that is not in the main panel and advanced views — all the utilitarian functions that make Acid V a joy to use in a modern music production environment. The toolbars above and below the main panel [p.15]...

7.1.1.8. Tutorials Acid V comes with interactive tutorials that walk you through different features of the plug- in. Clicking this option opens a pane on the right side of the window where the tutorials appear. Select one to access step-by-step descriptions that highlight the relevant controls and walk you through the process.
Preset Browser [p.90], which offers a myriad of ways to browse, sort, and organize Presets in Acid V. Clicking on the Preset name also opens up quick drop-down menus for selecting Presets outside of the Browser, as shown above. You can select to look at lists of Presets organized by Type, as shown above, or look at All Presets at once.
Note: An asterisk just after the name in the Preset Name Pane (*) indicates that you’ve edited that Preset. 7.1.3. Output volume This knob simply controls the main output level of Acid V. 7.1.4. Advanced Button Near the upper right corner of the top toolbar is the Advanced Button. This changes the lower area of the main panel (where the onscreen keyboard normally is seen) into the views for the Sequencer, Modulators, and Effects.
Lower toolbar in Acid V The Lower Toolbar of the Acid V interface can be thought of in terms of left and right halves. On the left is the Control Description display, and on the right are buttons for several useful utility functions.
When editing a virtual instrument, it’s all too easy to overshoot the sweet spot for one or more controls, and then wonder how to get back to where you were. Like all Arturia plug-ins, Acid V offers comprehensive Undo, Redo, and History functions so that you always have a safe way back.
7.2.4. CPU Meter At far right is the CPU Meter, which displays the overall load Acid V is placing on your computer CPU. Since it deals only with this plug-in, it is not a substitute for the resource metering tools in your DAW.
7.2.6. Resize handle Grab and drag the diagonal lines to the right of the Macro controls to resize the Acid V window. This lets you get achieve sizes in between increments in the Resize Window [p.74] menu if that better suits your screen layout.
[p.18] can be triggered by checking a step’s box in the sequencer or by MIDI velocity when Acid V is in Ext mode. This parameter sets that velocity. Drag on the number field to change it. 7.3.2. MIDI Tab This is where Acid V may be placed in MIDI Learn mode.
