Paul Nagle (2011). "M-Audio Venom (Synthesizer)". Sound On Sound (April 2011).
"M‑Audio's debut synth may have a pristine white exterior, but it hides a sample-based synthesis engine capable of getting down and dirty... ",
"Plenty of controller keyboards have been given to the world by M-Audio over the years, but the Venom is their first actual synth. A 12-voice virtual analogue doubling as a USB 2 audio and MIDI interface, it takes samples of classic synths and drum machines, rather than using modelled oscillators, and subjects them to waveshaping, oscillator sync and FM. It's bundled with a slick PC/Mac editor, which is needed to make original patches, but for performance tweaking, a matrix of buttons and encoders bring the most often‑needed parameters to the front panel.
