48 CHAPTER 4
Introduction
UNISON MODE
When we talked about the oscillators,
we mentioned that by subtly detuning
signals, you can beef up sounds and
achieve string-like sounds. The Virus is
equipped with features that allow you
to take this type of tonal manipulation a
step further. On of these is the so-called
UNISON MODE. It enables you to initiate
two or more voices for each note played,
which in turn lets you detune many oscil-
lators. UNISON MODE also offers the
option of spreading the voices gener-
ated by one note in the stereo panorama
and shifting the phases of their LFOs so
that all types of periodic effects can be
used to produce an even more exciting
signal.
Locate the parameter group UNISON in
the EDIT menu.

UNISON mode determines how many
voices the Virus will use to render a
played note. In a nutshell, it determines
how ”fat” the sound will be. You can use
the UNISON Detune parameter to deter-
mine to which extent the active voices
are detuned. UNISON PanSpread distrib-
utes them uniformly across the stereo
panorama, a process by which you can
also determine the width of a sound’s
stereo base. When you activate UNISON
mode for a sound, it can still be played
polyphonically. However, depending on
the number of voices you’ve dialed in, its
polyphony will of course be considerably
reduced in UNISON mode. The most effi-
cient and the standard setting is UNISON
mode = Twin, where two voices are
played for every note. In the ”OFF” posi-
tion, one voice per note is played.
