I got the Virus after starting a project with a friend. That eventually bombed and I decided I would just work alone. I had pretty good knowledge of subtractive synthesis before I got it just from reading on the net. At first I just loaded sound banks and would edit somewhat. By the time I started making my own sounds from scratch, Java, calculus and Chemistry started catching up with me. My school ended up taking priority over synths. So inbetween semesters (like now) I program the mess out of my virus. So far I have 15 or so patches that are ALL programed by me.
One more question. What is the best way to get Low bass from the virus. I made a patch for the Pro-53 that was pure sub bass (kinda like you would hear in the background of DnB songs). I tried similar settings on the virus and got no where near as low of tone. Can the virus do this or is this what the Pro one, Pulse and other monosynths are for?
