It has some way to go yet before it reaches its potential imo.
#VENGEANCE AVENGER VST YOUTUBE PATCH#
Finally - and critically - it is designed to be friendly towards patch creators and has very solid library and patch management.
It can handle a wide variety of synthesis options, very quick to modulate and contains a whole drum engine that is very unusual for a synth. The attraction of Anvenger is (sorry for repetition) - that it's a very well-conceived platform. Otherwise it becomes a case of the precise ingredients and the precise way you bake them. There's a seemingly limitless pursuit of the ultimate emulation of classic old units - that's one way to go I guess. It's really quite difficult now to bring something genuinely new to synthesis - how long ago would you say the last genuine sonic innovation was in the field? So we inevitably have endless variations on the same core ideas. Marius - its definitely appealing to a good deal more than those just getting into synthesis. I'm hopeful that this will be a goto for modern stuff. I need to get to grips with the drum sequencer, which is a whole other thing. The "cinematic" stuff is largely unimpressive too, though I'm not sure how much of this is to do with the programmers and how much the sonics. While Omni somehow still seems to struggle a little with aggressive / bright modern EDM styles which Avenger and Nexus handles with ease (twinned with programmers immersed in their niche fields), Omni is really good at rich and warm, both analogue and sample-based material, which this - so far anyway - is not. So as a first assessment, this looks more likely to replace Nexus than Omni for the jobbing hack (I mean, nothing was ever going to replace Omni obviously). This makes it really solid going forward - I think we're going to see a ton of third party content, which should integrate well with the factory stuff. It's the kind of browser I'd expect to be the norm these days but certainly isn't. You're probably covered for 90% of the basic searches you'd need, and it will be pain-free. Tags are nice and straightforward - my sweet spot would be between this and Omni 1 probably, but this is better than the NI categories for me - musically useful terms like Aggressive, Dark, Fat, Warm, cold etc alongside the expected genre categories and basic stuff like Arp / plucked etc. Which is a great pity - I do have plenty of call for crisp and clear, but my heart is in the warm really.īrowser seems straightforward and easy to use - by default it adds categories on top of each other rather than switches between them, which takes some getting used to. I was playing around with various combinations of oscillator sources and filters, but nothing was leaping out as fat and / or warm. My biggest concern though I guess is that I'm not sure how well it does warm. Some are intuitive and great, others less so. Does an incredible amount, but it is gonna need some time to get familiar with the conventions. Even for string ostinatos (with any library) it has worked well for me.Īs far as Avenger with the 20% off it's $176 in cart, good price, just not sure I will get much call for EDM, so I'm curious as to what it does outside that realm - and yes, I'm covered for drums and bass (both real and electronic).
#VENGEANCE AVENGER VST YOUTUBE HOW TO#
The ARP function on it is killer as well, a number of very original controls- with real knobs! Once you learn it and how to record it (not hard), it becomes a great/quick midii source. I'm already seeing some S88's sold used in Los Angeles for a little over half the retail price. The S61 seems to have more accurate velocity control than any other keyboard I've owned, and the knobs being setup and lightguide are great bonuses. But I like the clarity of what I'm hearing.
I've been through the 80 min preset video and most of it squarely falls into EDM music, EDM source, or trailer music with EDM. Since there are so many videos already perhaps you could focus on two key areas, How much do you like the tagging (does it surpass Omni?) and reviewing any Presets that are Not EDM. I'm hoping to have half an hour's play later, I'll report back with first impressions. It's like an unholy lovechild of Nexus and Omni (without the sample content). I did a media composer's look at Nexus, will likely do the same here, although of course there's an awful lot more ground to cover. Might be fun to do a video of this - over xmas probably as lord only knows when I'll have time to do it otherwise.
