Six-Voice Polysynth For Ableton Live

US J74 Venus6 echoes the behaviour of 1980's DCO synthesizers      01/07/20

J74 tells us that Venus6 is a six voice Poly-Multi Synthesizer for Ableton Live (Max for Live). They say that it can be used as a six voice polyphonic synthesizer (one timbre, six voices), as six independent monophonic synthesizers or as a six voice stacked monophonic synthesizer. The way voices, sequencer lines and clock are used is configurable and semi-modular. The internal sequencer of Venus6 (and of its MIDI companion VenusSEQ, also part of the package) is capable of poly-rhythmic and poly-metric sequencing due to the internal modular clock routing and clock division system. Here's more details direct from J74...

J74 Venus6 has been built echoing the behaviour of DCO synthesizer's of the 80's: its six (virtual) voice boards have been created with slight tolerance differences (subtle, but still present in DCO systems of the time) and coupled with a voice allocation system which enhances this dynamics. The synthesizer has an internal chorus, which also echoes the chorus implementations of the same era. The same chorus is also provided as a separate audio effect, as part of the same package. Venus6 comes with 250+ presets, which range from pads to arpeggio, from bass-sequences to leads.

Features:

  • Six voices (SAW, PWM, Noise, Sine and two sub-osc)
  • Sub-harmonic tuning and sequencing of the sub-osc
  • Per voice ladder filter and VCA, with dedicated envelopes
  • Per voice sequencer (pitch, velocity and filter modulation)
  • Sequencer available also as a MIDI device (VenusSEQ)
  • External parameter modulation for VenusSEQ
  • Modular clock system for poly-rhythm and poly-metrics.
  • Flexible voice modes: POLY, MONO, SEQ, ARP, CHORD, MONO-6
  • Six Independent LFO's for Cutoff, Panning and Tremolo.
  • Global HighPass Filter and Chorus (four types of chorus)
  • Chorus also as a separate audio effect (VenusChorus)
  • Glide, LFO Trig, Drift amount, Drone and Root/Scale filter
  • Preset system: save and recall presets (200 presets included)
  • Synth randomize, sequence randomize, shuffle, edit
