CHAPTER 7
The Parameters
- DYNAMIC Instead of the inter nal sound
sources, an external signal source is routed to
the filter section. The envelopes remain
functional so you have to play notes in order
to hear the external signal source. For in-
stance in this mode you can manipulate the
volume to “chop up” the input signal much
the way a gate does. If you turn
FILTER KEY
FOLLOW up, the input signal is filtered by a
different filter frequency depending on the
key you press. The sound program can still
be played polyphonically and you can alloca-
te several different filter frequencies and inde-
pendent envelopes simultaneously (!) to the
input signal via the keyboard.
- STATIC Instead of the internal sound sourc-
es, an external signal source is routed to the
filter section. In contrast to DYNAMIC mode,
in STATIC mode one or two voices (depend-
ing on the INPUT SELECT setting, see appro-
priate section) of the Virus are activated
automatically without you actually playing
notes on this PART. The filters and the ampli-
fier are switched permanently open, the enve-
lopes are deactivated and incoming notes are
ignored. Consequently you can use the filters
and the amplifier as an effects section for the
input signal.
INPUT SELECT
Selects the external signal source for the INPUT
MODEs.
The signal source that you select here is used
also for the vocoder.

If the selected signal source is a stereo source -
i.e. IN L+R, - then the sound program is auto-
matically switched internally to UNISON-MODE
= Twin, regardless of the UNISON MODE pa-
rameter setting so that the input signal is proc-
essed in stereo. In this case, the UNISON
parameters PAN SPREAD and LFO PHASE (see
appropriate section) are active
Several PARTs can simultaneously access the
external input via INPUT SELECT.
Input Meaning
- IN L The left channel of the ex-
ternal dual audio input.
- IN L+R Both channels of the ex-
ter nal dual audio input
(stereo).
- IN R The right channel of the
external dual audio input.
- AUX 1 L The left channel of internal
Aux 1.
- AUX 1 L+R Both channels of internal
Aux 1 (stereo).
- AUX 1 R The right channel of inter-
nal Aux 1.
- AUX 2 L The left channel of internal
Aux 2.
- AUX 2 L+R Both channels of internal
Aux 2 (stereo).
- AUX 2 R The right channel of inter-
nal Aux 2.
