Modes Of Operation
Mode / Exit Button
There are 3 ways or ‘modes’ to play your Virus TI. The Mode Select buttons are located to the right of the
LCD display.
Single Mode •
This is the default mode, in which the Virus will only play one sound at a time across the whole length of your
MIDI controller keyboard.
Multi Mode •
In Multi mode, you can have up to 16 different sounds playing at a time. Each of these 16 sounds is handled
by a ‘Part’, and each Part has its own performance settings, such as volume, pan position, transpose etc.
By assigning the same MIDI channel to each Part, you can easily create fantastic combinations of any of the
available presets, which can be arranged in layers or split into different key zones.
The Virus TI has 128 slots for storing your Multi set-ups. The first 16 (0-15) of these are ‘embedded’ Multis,
by which we mean that they store all the data for the patches they use, so any edits you make to the sounds
are automatically preserved when you store the Multi, so you need never worry about breaking a preset.
Multis numbered 16 and upwards do not store the individual patch data, but instead refer to patches stored
in the Single RAM/ROM banks.
Sequencer Mode •
Sequencer mode is a simplified version of Multi mode designed for use with a software sequencer. Each of
the 16 Parts is set to its equivalent MIDI channel, and the performance settings are mostly hidden, as it is
expected that you would rather use your sequencer to control these things. The Virus TI will automatically
switch to Sequencer Mode when Virus Control is activated.
Please note that you cannot store your settings in Sequencer mode - if it is important to do so, you should
use Multi mode instead.
Exit •
Pressing this button from within any of the edit menus will bring you back out into the top page of the cur-
rently selected mode.
