Vengeance Producer Suite - AVENGER - 1.8.5 the main thread

[commodore]

Still can't wait to hear the guitar expansions. Also can't wait to hear more news about Nexus.

[kevvvvv]

Those guitar expansions do sound good.

I'm thrilled about the whole release and what it will bring.

Obviously I've watched the summer release explainer video

- but it'll be cool to see what the final release of v1.5 does include.

is it just me or do you tend to need to boost the high frequencies of many avenger presets? Compared to massive, spire, sylenth, etc it's a bit on the darker side. not a complaint, just wondering if it's just my aging ears or the character of the synth.

if you have to boost the high content of for example the EDM XPs, there must be definately something wrong somewhere else.

Maybe just you, I haven't noticed anything like that.

you can try out headphone or speaker calibration. there are usable demos mathroom roomeq and for headphones from tonebooster morphit. also for rooms it is very usefull when put in the corner bass traps. it make sound much clearer. I have this in white so look not so ugly as black in a white room and i need only 4 behind the speaker. corner in front of speaker is not so important. https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B00T5A ...

Awsome thanks manuel and rene for your hard work and just tested the beta and it sound amazing. Hopefully the reggaeton MU its in the final 1.5 didn't see it in the beta version and if we already activated the beta version do we have to go to the same process for the final 1.5 or its going to be just download since I already activated the beta version

[mitchiemasha]

Do we have a new word... Synthstruments. Got to love it!!!

[kevvvvv]

Absolutely wonderful!!!

Is this free to existing users, inc copy protection method? (just confirming)

This is has been my best synth investment yet. I can't think of anything else that's lasted this long in my plug rack

[yul]

4+ gig factory stuff (which I won't)

So part of your complaint is that it comes with a huge library of free sounds. ARE YOU MAD!!! Man could make the download smaller but then we'd get less.

Those are actually sample content that takes the space.

Anyways the guy is mad to complain, because its actually full factory library that you get to test. Second of that, 4gb of space is not much, whats the matter.

Anyways, I was looking at testing the VA engine I didn't even know this synth came with samples..is this a sample mangling synth? I coudn't really tell but it's probably written somewhere. The GUI was still to big for my laptop and couldn't resize anything unless I gone past the loading the additional sample set which I didn't even know required downloading (because the demo section does not mention that).

[noiseboyuk]

Sounding terrific Manuel. Is the estimated release date still "when its ready"?

[Elektronisch]

wow this is serious update

[AJYoung]

I didn't even know this synth came with samples..is this a sample mangling synth?

There's a good amount of options for sample mangling. You can stack samples as oscillator sources. Use samples as FM Carriers/Modulators. Resample them to Wavetables. There's a Granular engine too.

Yup- Pretty much replaced Alchemy for me (on a PC) which is praise indeed!
Looking forward to this release, sounds amazing!
