Tips, Tricks& Words Of Wisdom

 VOLUME CONTROL

Next to the Oscillator Volume parameter, the Vi-

rus features four other volume stages for every

SINGLE or PART:

PATCH VOLUME

Volume level of the sound program. Use Patch

Volume to balance out the fundamental differ-

ences in levels between the different sound pro-

grams. The Patch Volume is stored along with

the sound program. The unit value is 100.

PART VOLUME

Volume level of the MULTI-PART. Use Part Vol-

ume to balance out the different levels within a

MULTI program. Part Volume is stored along

with the MULTI program. The unit value is zero

since Part Volume is a bipolar, relative parame-

ter.

CHANNEL VOLUME

and ExpressionThese two performance control-

lers (Ctr. #7 and #11) can be used in order to

make temporary changes in signal level via a

sequencer or volume pedal. Like all perform-

ance controllers, these are not stored with the

sound program. The unit value is 127. A dou-

ble-click on the POWER and STORE buttons

together (Panic function) resets Channel Vol-

ume and Expression to this unit value.

 ASSIGN AND THE SOFT

KNOBS

The ASSIGN section in the EDIT menu lets you

control up to six freely selectable parameters

via up to three modulation sources. The modu-

lation sources can be MIDI controllers such as

the modulation wheel as well as internal, voice-

related modulation sources such as envelopes

and LFOs. In addition, LFO 1 and LFO 2 each

offer a further, freely selectable modulation des-

tination when they’re set to the ASSIGN posi-

tion (use the AMOUNT buttons for this

purpose).

The obvious thing to do would be to use one of

the Soft-Knob as a modulation source for one

or several ASSIGN units. However, we deliber-

ately chose not to create a direct, ﬁxed link be-

tween the Soft Knob and the ASSIGN units

since, by deﬁnition, neither the output of the

Soft Knob nor the inputs of the ASSIGN units

have a ﬁxed controller number.

Instead, you are free to select one of the possi-

ble controllers as an ASSIGN source (e.g. the

modulation wheel or Controller #12). All you

have to do is enter this controller as the param-

eter for the Soft Knob. This conﬁguration is

identical to that of a conventional parameter

that has a dedicated controller number and

knob. The knob movements are sent to the se-

lected MIDI Out via the selected controller and

on to the sequencer where they can be record-

ed and sent back to the Virus. Reasonably

enough, you should set the controller number

for the Soft Knob under Soft Knob Single be-

cause this setting (like the ASSIGN settings) is

stored with the SINGLE program and doesn’t

apply to all SINGLEs (as is the case with the

Soft Knob Global setting).
