u can do it all on a virus....
what exactly do u wanna know?
its subtractive synthesis mostly....also u can get some crazy sounds with granular synthesis...

for that elastic, squelshy sound...just modulate osc (sawtooth) pitch with the lfo....
on lfo 1 ..its the 1st and 2nd knob...osc 1 and osc 2...u can also link them..or have them moving in opposite directions etc...
also experiment with highpass and band pass filters..

automation...automation..automation....psytrance would not exist without it...automate everything.....

use the new combfilter effect..i really like it...

for more soundscapy, ambient stuff...use the graintables and wavetable oscillators...again automate stuff....like the osc shape or the index etc...

tape and doppler delay also make some excellent sounds....

Most of the good sounds i make are by accident, whenever I try something in particular it never goes anywhere.

As nutrinoland has already said the key seems to be automation

I must admit I could do with some ideas on how to make psy sounds, i'm still very much a begginer when it comes to synthesis.........I know the basics but making the sounds I want seems difficult.

Thank you for an answers, guys!

nutrinoland, i'm talkin' about that metallic pluck sound, what sounds wide. How can I do the similar sound with virus? I think it's square semitone envelope maybe? I can't get the similar sound

P.S. Sorry for my english, guys

are u talking about that metallic drop sound??

on the virus...use the wavetables...find a metallic sound....

there is a patch u can reference...
download the bank from the Access site called 'numb 0714', then look for patch number 26, its called tekkin...

that uses a similar sound...

also if u use fruity loops., check out the synth called Ogun..it specializes in metallic sounds...

http://rghost.net/2063243

(virus tekkin sound - click on preview to download)

to widen it...use reverb or other stereo widening effects..also panning...ping pong delays etc..

nutrinoland, yes, i'm about metallic drop

It's strange, but "tekkin" sounds on my "B" terrible wrong. Maybe because it's for "TI"? But anyway - I find other interesting sounds in that bank. Thank you!

http://rghost.ru/2064850 - that how it's sounds )) deeply psychedelic )

I'm using logic, so ugun is not available for me, but I think virus can do all that stuff.

Nutrinoland....any ideas on how to get the main sound in DNA's remix of Assimilation of Reality (originally produced by Xerox + Illumination)?

It's difficult to describe, so here's a link to it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dtmO09yL4s

it starts coming in at 1:44 and is the main sound at 5:07

I dug the cd out of my collection recently and played it out.....the crowd loved it

Sorry Coax for sort of hijacking your thread

@ nutrinoland:
Sorry, I don't exactly understand what you mean with "automation". Do you mean, to automate the sound with LFO's?
