With the benefit of two external audio inputs, the Virus may also serve as an FX device and signal
processor that you can use creatively to come up with all kinds of effects. External signals can be
processed with filter, gate and lo-fi effects, routed to the Virus effects section and serve as a modu-
lation source for frequency and ring modulation.
Beyond that, you can use internal or external signals as sources for the Virus’ on-board vocoder
serve. The vocoder works with up to 32 filter bands and offers diverse manipulation and modulation
options.
The three main oscillators produce 66 waveshapes, three of which are dynamically mixable so that
spectral effects are possible within the confines of a single oscillator. In conventional synthesizers,
this type of effect requires several oscillators. Synchronization, frequency modulation and ring mod-
ulation between the audio oscillators delivers additional complex spectral effects that you can use
for all kinds of sound shaping purposes.
The filters can be switched in series or in parallel within the voices via several options. When you
switch the filters in series, the saturation stage is embedded between the filters. Consequently, an
overdriven filter resonance can be re-filtered within the same voice! A maximum of six filter poles
(36 dB slope!) enables radical tonal manipulations.
The LFOs feature 68 continuous variable waveshapes each, including a triangle with variable sym-
metry and infinitely variable aperiodic oscillations for random variation of the controlled parameters.
The LFOs are capable of polyphonic as well as monophonic oscillation. In other words, if several
voices are active, the LFOs can run independently or in sync. A number of keyboard trigger options
enable you start LFO waveshapes with variable phase lengths at the beginning of a note and/or to
cycle once only, like an envelope.
Next to the numerous ”hard-wired” or fixed modulation configurations, you can assign three modu-
lation sources to up to six different modulation destinations via the Modulation Matrix. For your
modulation sources, you have LFOs, velocity, the pitch bender, aftertouch, the modulation wheel,
numerous MIDI controllers and other sources to chose from. For your modulation destinations, you
can select any sound parameter of the Virus Classic that is conducive to being remote controlled.
Up to 16 arpeggiators are available in MULTI mode. These give you countless options for creating
arpeggios, which can also be synced up to MIDI clock.
Sounds and effects are patched out via six audio outputs which of course can also be used to route
three stereo signals out.
In additional to its killer sounds and tone, the Virus was designed to deliver ultimate handling and
control comfort. It is equipped with dedicated knobs and buttons for the crucial synthesizer func-
tions, further parameters are accessible via data entry procedures. We distinguished between these
two levels of expertise to enable you to create complex sounds while keeping the user interface as
clear and uncluttered as possible.
