"After years without any addition to their Synthesizer Anthology series, Arturia has announced that it will soon bring back to life in software format one of the world's most sough-after synthesizers.

The Oberheim SEM V accurately emulates the famous sound and interface of the original Synthesizer Expander Module introduced by Oberheim Electronics in 1974. Faithfully reproducing the tone, waveshapes, multi-mode 12dB/octave filter and other detailed characteristics, the Oberheim SEM V also brings the benefits of polyphony, MIDI control, arpeggiation and some innovative functionalities such as the 8-voice programmer, or the advanced keyboard follow.

Check out the Arturia website www.arturia.com on October 25th for more information."

LOL, they would have been better inspired to debug their product line (Moog Modular in the first place) before releasing a new synth which will be full of bugs as usual...
