Hi Brazos, welcome to the forum.
Congrats on the Virus B, it's a great synth. Feel free to ask any Q's.
I haven't seen any comprehensive introduction video tutorials on how to use the B or C - other than those making specific patches or similar on
youtube - but I've put together some documentation you might find useful:
•
Virus B - OS v4.5 manual.pdf
•
Howard Scarr - Programming Analogue Synths - Virus Tutorial.pdf (Additional tutorial patches in Mid / SoundDiver formats)
•
Virus B Midi CC knob diagram
•
Virus C Signal Flow Diagram (although shows Virus C, it applies largely to Virus B too)
•

Regards the software, if you have a PC (rather than a Mac) you may wish to try Emagic SoundDiver that was bundled (free) with the Virus B and C synths. It's not an integral VST host, as it's fairly old and long since been discontinued (see bottom of this post for more modern commercial products), but it is a decent basic standalone GUI editor and librarian (I use it mainly as a librarian to import and save patch sets to and from the Virus via PC over MIDI).

Emagic SoundDiver Virus v3.02
... unfortunately the above version can be a little hit and miss. I found only the
full version of SoundDiver (rather than the one bundled with the Virus) could successfully connect with my Indigo over MIDI. But try the above first, and if you have any problems let me know.
Other commercial alternatives with more up-to-date VST specifications and features are, in no particular order,
Solar3D,
RekonAudio,
MysteryIslands and
SoundQuest. I cannot endorse them, though, as I haven't personally tried or tested them.
