Best value:
Excellent
VA synth (virtual analogy), not in sound bank but subtractive, FM
- 2 oscillators + 1 sub-osc, 3 LFO, 2 multimode filter, modulation matrix, effects (delay, reverb, ring ...)
- Single mode, multi (for stacking jsuqu '16 layers) or multi-single, 16 to see trimbalités
- A powerful arpeggiator, a vocoder, and an input to 4 outputs
- 5 rotary knobs and push buttons
- 8 sound banks of 128 patches, including two banks users, plus a multi bank
It corresponds to a classic B virus or
Supplied originally with the soft SoundDiver specific for the virus
UTILIZATION
If it does not really take place, the setting with the buttons is not easy. So, I do sound design only with SoundDiver, which allows you to import all banks virus patches (all patches work, even those from TI, the virus simply ignores the settings that he does not know => so the sound patch should no longer be the same
It is super reliable, except in multiplayer mode, or there are some bugs (I never use this mode)
The multi-single mode is a wonder in the context of a home studio: once set the patch in single mode, it has 16 tracks!
SOUNDS
The virus is very versatile and coexists well with analog, guitars, ...
It shines in well péchus lead and bass greasy, moog type and the typical numeric pad. It has good bass with his sub, but not warm.
We can make him do such analog pad (juno, Oberheim, ...), digital pianos, organ, as well as pure digital (ppg, Q, ...)
Compared to IT, all viruses have the same tone, IT much better integration with the computer (the audio usb, for example) and additional opportunities. However, this virus has all you need and is well worth the TI in terms of sound, and for 4 times cheaper! (Compared to the snow)
Compared to Lead North, North is better for interpretation, but the virus much more diversified sonnorits, and has better bass. In lead (subtractive and FM), this is
Compared to micron, microkorg, the nova (especially new mini and micro), I think the virus has more character
Compared to blofeld, it is a little less powerful but personally, I find it buried in terms of grain, lack of low blofeld is a true default
OVERALL OPINION
I bought it not too expensive and it is the best quality / price ratio on the market for a digital synth
I use it on all my songs, electro, pop, rock, ...
This is a synth that I will never part ...
