Yeah man! I know what you mean! .... Though im a total nightmare for getting a patch to sound the way i like it!.. I love my Virus to bits but the longer I work on a part the more I hate it and start noticing bits of detail none else seems to notice!! I dont think it is a virus issue like the others said i think its down to your ears and taste!!!
The Virus to me can sound extremly "foggy" or even "bitty" sort of to much "gritt" and not a lot of "fullness" to it, sounds like its being used to its limits and stretched to it last bit of power!!!!.............. Though grittyness is very very very nice at times! Some times I look for a fuller sound that I can not find some times with in the Virus (very noticeable with Pads!!) Thats one of the reasons im getting a Nord!
Do you mean patches you have programmed or standard patches mate?
