What's up this is Scott Magno DJ MadFlip with uniquesquared.com and today we're going to
check out the M-Audio Venom.
This thing is really nice, we're going to get inside of all the features, do a quick
demo, and we're going to tell you exactly why we think this thing is truly deadly.
Stick around and let's get into it.
Ok so let's check out the M-Audio Venom.
What is this beautiful thing?
Well, it is a 49 key controller, and M-Audio has been making controllers for quite some
time.
They're very popular, very reliable.
Now this is going to be their first foray into the virtual analog synthesizer.
Now it really packs a punch, what you get is 512 patches, 256 multi layered patches.
You're also going to get a really awesome arpeggiator.
Now these pads are sampled from some of the classic vintage analog synthesizers, FM synthesizers
and classic drum machines.
All of this right in here.
And what you also get is a USB audio MIDI interface.This means I can take an instrument,
I can take a microphone, I can take an RCA stereo input, plug directly into the Venom
and go straight into my DAW.
No extra hassle with another audio interface or sound card.
That is amazing.
Now it's also going to come with the Vyzex Venom editor.
Now this is an editor that you can load onto your laptop, connect USB 2.0 to the Venom
and you can do all of your edits, all of your banks, rearranging everything, all of your
little tweaks, do it within the editor and have a very clear visual representation of
what you're doing.
Now you can save everything on here, shut the Venom of and load it right back in.
And you've got everything ready to go.
Now let's check it out and see what we can do with
the Venom.
That is wicked.
Alright, this truly is a deadly Venom.
So for M-Audio's first at bat when it comes to a virtual analog synth they hit a homerun.
Now for those of you who are unfamiliar with the synthesize, you don't have to be intimidated,
you've got the editor right here.
Good visual, you can do all of your tweaks and actually learn the art of it as you go.
And for those of you who are familiar you will feel right at home.
Now what I love the most as a player is that I've got a lot of good patches here, a lot
of vintage sounds, a lot of really good electronic sounds as well.
As a performer and producer, the multi control blows everything out of the water.
So there's a lot more that we can talk about with the M-Audio Venom, if you have any comments
