getting really aggressive sounds from the Ti

[grs]

The opposite approach always works well in thick mixes / live sound.

Try using single oscillator sounds, two unison max. The less harmonics the better, the obvious end of the line is sine wave sounds.

That's the Nord Lead kind of approach, that stuff is always sticking it's head out of rock mixes.

It might be harder to get on a virus but it's not impossible because there is so much thickness to be had on a virus the thin sound often gets overlooked.
