Members mate_stubb Posted December 3, 2012 Members Share Posted December 3, 2012 Do NOT turn them all on simultaneously until after December 10. The resulting harshness could very well trigger the Mayan Apocalypse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Gribs Posted December 3, 2012 Members Share Posted December 3, 2012 That is so funny. Do you look the same? Can you put on makeup and all look like multiple copies of Gary Numan in the Cars video? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 13ghostsofscoobydoo Posted December 3, 2012 Members Share Posted December 3, 2012 There's some users that can get some really good sounds out of the Venom. I wasn't too impressed at first, but some of the youtube user demo's are pretty nice. Particularly by this fellow who has around 4 or 5 videos and shares his patches at the link on the youtube page: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members wwwjd Posted December 3, 2012 Author Members Share Posted December 3, 2012 hahahaa actually, we all in in separate parts of the country now. But, I might see if they want to do an online collaboration for one Venom based song. Just funny we all jumped on this price drop. Any owners here have good sites for patches downloading?

Members wheresgrant3 Posted December 4, 2012 Members Share Posted December 4, 2012 Ahhhh {censored}! I've been holding out for an UltraNova but I could not resist this! As soon as I saw this post I pulled the trigger. What is the catch? IS it a closeout? I even opted for the 3 way pay. LOL... $66 a month till Feb. Well I guess the Ultranova can wait.

Members cresshead Posted December 4, 2012 Members Share Posted December 4, 2012 Venom's are at a great price...hard to knock them really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members com Posted December 4, 2012 Members Share Posted December 4, 2012 Price is nice but Venom sound seems to bee kind of specific "agresive". I would like to know is it even possible (with proper programming of course) to get from it say some mellow pads, or smooth basses at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Meatball Fulton Posted December 4, 2012 Members Share Posted December 4, 2012 Do you know how to program mellow pads and smooth basses? Then you'll be all set...Why should it be impossible? Seriously... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wwwjd Posted December 4, 2012 Author Members Share Posted December 4, 2012 It DOES sound edgy and different. That is a plus to me. Not the same old "ok" VA sound, but something a little newish. The demos I watched covered a lot of ground from new and edgy, distortions to good old moog solos and strings. It's not for everything, but seems unique and for $200 plus being an audio interface, PLUS being a controller, too hard to resist. My buddy sent the email, and we all bought one within 20 minutes!

Then you'll be all set...Why should it be impossible? Seriously... Listened bunch of Venom factory and user demos and never heard anything like that, hence my question. Also (94 waveforms derived from analogue synths) Prove me wrong :Wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gribs Posted December 4, 2012 Members Share Posted December 4, 2012 I was able to resist the temptation to buy one of these. As in the case of the (now sold) X-Station, I tried to get my son interested, but he seems more interested in just playing the RD900GX. I am fine with that - it makes me happy to see him enjoying it.

Members mate_stubb Posted December 4, 2012 Members Share Posted December 4, 2012 Went and listened to the demos again. Not my cup of tea soundwise, but it sounds like a lot of synth for the money for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members triton76 Posted December 4, 2012 Members Share Posted December 4, 2012 I bought my Venom on Black Friday. I think it sounds great for lead, bass, and groove stuff. I was trying to get some smooth pads going which wasn't as easy as on other synths I've owned. But I'm just scratching the surface at this point. I used it as a controller at band practice for my Voce V3 clonewheel. then played a couple of lead sounds on it too. It's way more portable than the triton which may go into semi retirement. I like that string synth sound in the vid above. I will have to give that a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members koolkat Posted December 4, 2012 Members Share Posted December 4, 2012 If I hadn't just bought The Plugiator, I'd definitely go for this one; what a super deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
