Using the Audio Inputs
The two audio input channels allow you to
pass an external audio signal through the fil-
ters, amplifier and effects sections of the
Virus PowerCore. A typical application of
this technique is to run a drum-loop through
a lowpass filter, but with the Virus Power-
Core’s powerful modulation capabilities, the
possibilities for sonic manipulation go a lot further than this!
> USING THE SIDE-CHAIN PLUGIN
Not all VST host software will allow you to route audio
data into a VST instrument, so for this reason we have
included the Virus Input plugin which sets up a side-
chain between the audio track and the Virus Power-
Core plugin. Latency is compensated as soon as the
relevant information is provided by the host software.
To use this, you first need to instance the Virus PowerCore as an audio instrument, so that the
input plugin has something to connect to. Now, in the audio track you wish to process, select
‘Virus Input’ from the PowerCore folder in the VST menu.
Now click on the Destination window, and choose the Virus instance from the menu. The out-
put of the audio track will now be routed into the Virus plugin.
NOTE:
If your host software provides side-chaining capabilities, or allows audio to be routed
to a VSTi then you should use these methods instead, as the side-chain plugin may not
behave correctly under such hosts. Note that you may have to instance the Virus PowerCore
as a multi-channel instrument in order to access the side-chain functionality.
> MODE
Enables the external audio inputs.
> Off:
the audio inputs are disabled.
> Dynamic:
In Dynamic mode, the audio signal is passed through the amp envelope as well
as the filters (inc. saturation) and effects. This means that no signal is heard until you press
a key, and the volume curve of the signal will follow the shape of the amp envelope.
