Virus kB, bought new one about two years ago.

is it possible to find used for sale as it is still a new version of the virus ?

Possibly, but it's a jackpot if you do find an used C.

Theres alot of Virus A, B and C modells going second hand - and they aren't that expensive either. You'll even find Indigo I & II versions.

There are even MonoMachines going around in sweden. :) thats a nice syntheziser - a friend bought one, that synth can acctually produce some really wicked sounds, i think you Juho would like it acctually. its not an trance-syntheziser

I've been following the beta testing of the monomachine. Much of the features have not been implemented yet. From what I heard, it's definitely a performance machine. I'm not sure if you can play chords on it. It seems like it has endless possiblities in sound creation, probably closer to infinity.

Wait until the release this December (I'm guessing they are going to be late as usual).

Did you get to try your friend's monomachine 303?

I'm hoping for a module version.

No, i didn't since he lives in gothenburg and i live in stockholm.. when had bought it he brought it here to another friend but i was sick as f*ck so i couldnt meet up with him and try it.. but he did send me and video he made with his digital camera + _alot_ of mp3s the size where well over 1gig.. its an monster synthesizer. :) Nice sounds, easy interface.. Liked the fact that it could emulate diffrent types of sound - he made alittle song using only two sounds from it and tweaking it realtime, 1 fm channel & 1 sid channel.. great sound.

Havent got jackass left thou since i had a HD-faliure.. im getting _so_ sick of computers, i wanna sequence everything using only CV/Gate. I'll get some new mp3 from him and i could try to upload them somewhere

Btw: when i say the videos he made i thought of you UdenJoe. I think you'll love that synthesizer. It makes crazy sounds =P

Your friend must have some friends at Elektron being in the same town...

You could use CV/Gate, but I'd go for an mpc1000 for a good sequencer/sampler.

Thanks to all, I bought the baby today!

once again, Id like to know the approximate time Id have to wait, if anyone knows...

Im a real newbie to sound design, started to get a small taste of it tweaking my korg ms2000, needed to go further...

if anyone have a link to ms2000users, a website like here to exchange new sounds, learn about how creating sonic landscapes, please let me know :wink: !

Go to Yahoo groups. There are two groups for the ms2000 with lots of members and alot of traffic.

You are going to have a huge learning curve going to the Virus. Don't be intimidateed. It's going to take a while to get used to the Virus interface.

It was about $250US, which sounds crazy, but I still saved around $1000US ;)

I had to wait a little over a month for it to arrive. Be sure to have a CC ready to pay for taxes!

You pay the GST, which is a flat 10%. Synthesizers and similar electronic musical compenentry attracts zero tax. Shove that in a guitar player's face ;)
