Features/functionality you'd like to see

[Timo]

I thought it might be nice to hear of various aspects of the current workings of the "software" part of the Virus that people would wish to see, mainly in the Virus TI. - Not fantasies, but real possibilities. Purely as curiosity for us users, and feedback for Access. Not for demands.

Add your own!

Mine are based on experience with the Virus B only, so please correct me if these have been ammended in later Viri'.

* Tuneable Sub Oscillator - My B's Sub-Osc is "static" at -2 octaves below Osc 1. I'd love it if this were freely tuneable, including semitone and cent values. This would effectively give a flexible fourth oscillator.

* Extra wave-shapes for the Sub-Osc. On my B there's just square and triangle.

* In fact, oscillator functions feature as the same for all oscillators - so Osc1, and Osc3 have all of Osc2's features - like cent-detuning, FM, Sync, Ring-Mod etc..

* ... And to have the ability to select any specific oscillators you wish to Sync, or Ring-Mod' with another(s), as opposed to the current hard-wired option of just Osc2 being Sync'd to Osc1, and Ring-Mod affecting them all.

* Oscillator mixer feedback. - Would thicken up the sound incredibly.

* Importable PCM wave-shapes, for the oscillators and LFOs.

* Additional effects. Including better saturation algorithms.

* Accent/velocity-pattern control for the arpeggiator.

* The Polyphony setting to be placed next to the Unison setting in the menus, as I reckon they share a common link, and I find I use those two functions the most.

All I can think of for now.
