A detail that could be important for some: you must renew your license online every 90 days.

Might be interesting. You don't need a dongle, right? But renew your license every 90 days?

 

Exactly. No dongle. But after 90 days, your license is not valid anymore.
Then you have the "choice" to, supposedly download a license from your account their website, or install their license manager program and actualize your license from this "third program" ... Which I consider a pin in the ass.

I'm a legit user. My license was invalidated 15 days ago, and still didn't had time to renew it, as my computer is completely protected from in and out connections.. So I have to re-configure a bunch of things to actualize my license...
As a result. I'm waiting for next R2R version, meanwhile I'll use the old cracked one...

That said, it's a very powerful synthesizer, able to do much more than what's their main market: mainstream dance music. You can do anything with it, including true sound design.
But, That's how a developer lose the attention of his own clients.

 

That's exactly the same with Nexus and other "ROMplers".

Do ppl know there are oscillators in Nexus since day one ?
Gate, arpeggiator ... ?
No ... instead they complained about "too wet" sound since day one, whereas you can disable effects on one click, same with gate, arp ...

Once you dive into it, you can do MUCH more than EDM/hip hop.
But "selling point" was "ROMpler" so ...

As a side note, i use Nexus "dry" samples for goth/metal/industrial

 

I think that this synth together with Parawave Rapid and UVI Falcon is one the best synths ever made. It can really do everything and it does it far more better than most virtual synths on the market imho. And now for an insane price! Get legal guys. Buy it ...now is the time!. Mind you: The expansion packs however are rarther expensive!

 

I don't mind installing a license manager tbh so I'll think about it.

 

It’s a great synth but if you consider buying it, but you can’t use it with the expansions available at the sister site.

but if you want to go legit with it, now is the time.

It's tempting, but I asked myself the one and only question; do I really need another synth? Answer > no I don't
Besides the expensive expansions, I've also read that v2 is coming soon, so it makes sense that they offer it now - and earlier this year - for a discount. When upgrading, users probably need to pay again. So no thanks.

 

You don't have to buy the expensive presets:

Free Download - I have make 3 Soundbanks:
- The ' E-lec-tro Art ' Soundbank By Che For The ' Vengeance Sound - Avenger ' Synth
- The ' Energy ' Expansion By Che For The ' Vengeance Sound - Avenger ' Synth
- The ' New Wave ' Expansion By Che For The ' Vengeance - Avenger ' Synth

I'm thinking about buying the avenger. But a question to you guys, if you have nexus 4, sylenth1, Viper, spire, serum, u-he ACE, u-he DIVA, DUNE 3, all cherry audio synths and a few others, would you need the Avenger? Would you really buy it? Or is it enough?

 

with what you already have, you can produce all the number one hits in history, if you ask me, you already have way too much.

Can't argue with that

 

The synths that you mention are enough, BUT none of them manages wavetables the way Avenger does.
If you really like synthesis, you miss one synthesizer that would allow you to go deeper into wavetables. It could be VPS Avenger, or Parawave Rapid, or, Phaseplant, if you're going to have only one, better phaseplant than the others.

If you use mainly presets, you dont need it.

50% price... 100% developer's arrogance towards their customers

 

Interesting, in deed.

 

Same can be said for a LOT of devs.

A little read about Nexus / ReFX
https://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=525348

Tone2 ? They simply closed their KVR forum after being caught with Gladiator acting like a malware (i know it ... i posted about it on KVR before being kicked).
It was generating an administrator alert, shutting down the whole computer.

I could talk about companies with server auth ... closing down. No more install possible.
And there are a LOT more.

Of course, there are nice ppl too

 

Hi @PifPafPif, I am very interested in this topic, can you give us some insights.

 

Not here, please, as this thread is specifically about VPS Avenger.
You can create a thread about the most annoying protection schemes.... I'll bring the popcorns.
