I wouldn't say that, but I work on my own so I haven't got anyone to compare myself to.

I do usually make all my patches from scratch though.

Cool, so what kind of music do u do and u got any where i could hear some?

I do trance, but am such a perfectionist, I haven't actually finished anything in about a year, as soon as I do, I'll let you hear it 8)

hehe i havent finished a track over a year to :D
what kind of trance do you creat?

Hopefully driving and melodic without too much cheese, I like AVB style more then any other, what about you?

oh yeah same here!
catching armin's set every week? :wink:

Bass on the virus:

Use all three oscillators (Sawtooth, yea) and a delta wave sub-osc.

Apply a moderate amount of bit-reduction in the filter section.

Stack at least 8 voices in unison.

Annihilate!!!

Hey DS, fancy seeing you here! I tend not to use my Virus for bass. I can't get the powerful analog sounding deep bass from my Virus KB that just pours out of my Waldorf Pulse. I like the Virus more for those punchy midrange bass sounds. I like the Puncher preset, but with some distortion/saturation for added grit. Maybe a touch of fm, too. That type of sound works well over a deep subbass, or with a deep bassy kick drum.

I'm definately going to try JasonDeath's bass after work today. Maybe that will give my woofers a nice workout!

I programmed a variation on Jason Death's suggested bass patch. It was awesome. I never realized just how much bass I could squeeze out of the Virus. By mixing the bright bit reduced sound of filter one with a very bassy dark, low cutoff sound on fiilter two, I made a bass on the Virus that had tons of punch and low end. I only used unison twin, btw. Easily as powerful as the bass coming from my Pulse, with added depth.

Thx man
