The Venom is a 12-voice virtual analog synth, based on samples from oscillators from classic analog synthesizers.

The performance control section on the top panel gives the user access to 30 parameters, such as cutoff, resonance and ADSRs.

The Venom is shipping to dealers immediately, and will retail at $499.

We spoke to product manager, Taiho Yamada, and marketing manager for live performance products, Michael Parker, to find out more.
