is it just me that thinks these colour swaps are a bit silly ?
I can't say I'm excited, it is after all just a synth, so who really gives a toss what colour scheme they use?
We want more synth functions and more sound shaping options, not more purdy colours.

actually, I really wanted to see a white keyboard (my signature had been created much much earlier than the actual model came out)or this black polar... but why are they limited editions? ... OK, I know when people are thinking about buying a Virus a new and exciting color scheme will make them hurry to the shop, but come on... it's not that cheap you wanna/gonna buy many from different colors, so a constant palette of different colors of each model would be nice.... in fact, I'm planning to buy a white keyboard one day but still don't have the money, so I'll only be able to buy a used one?

The 61-key whiteout was the definitive perfect aesthetic, imho!! Nice wooden cheeks on each end too, rather than under the keybed on the Polar.
I seriously need to upgrade my Indigo.

I regged up on Vimeo especially too.
Marc, it might be just me, but I can see you're really excited about something for NAMM...?

Marc , I'm not saying that the white virus isn't pretty, as it is.. in a nerdy synth way. (My 3 most appealing to aethetics synths are the whiteout Ti, Waldord XTK and Emu EIII, the rest are just boxes that make noises to me)
I'm just saying that making a limited "black" edition run of a synth, which was originally black in the first place, isn't a blow my socks off moment for me. I've had 3 hardware virus synths now and all of 'em have been black.
Though if it sells you more gear , then good luck with it!
and your linky no worky

Well, we at least know we can look forward to an semi major OS update soon. 4.5 it is... I predict a compressor/limiter being implemented! What other vintage FX could be added that could not be achieved already?

here's a new link, which hopefully will serve better: http://vimeo.com/18603358
as for your comment, we like making limit editions and so it seems, our users do like as well. of course, everybody has his own preference in style - so don't worry, there are always the classic options: for instance Polar White.
and yes, i'm excited - it's NAMM time and new things will be released! and personally as well, the snow just melted here and it's grim outside. i'm off to california in a couple of hours, can't be that bad

My ploy to tease more info worked.
Movie 1... Juno chorus. :O
Air Chorus sounds like it will be really useful for subtle modulation.
Digging Ben's Hammond skillz! The new FX sound really versatile.
Happy infekted New Year, and have fun in California/NAMM.
