Thanks much to marc and ben for the demo! My feelings on it are mixed -- the sounds are fairly standard pad/lead sounds, albeit with some of the nice, subtle complexity the wavetables can bring. On the flip side, this is the first virus demo I've heard that has that smooth, rich, high-frequency, glassy sound I typically associate with 'expensive,' so that's great. Overall, for what I like, the patches sound decent, but the quality sounds excellent.
I don't know if it's just the demos or if it's actually a limitation of the virus, but I've never once heard anything but usable sounds in a demo. I tend to like the more crazy, heavily modulated sound effect-type stuff.
At any rate, it's just nice to hear something. Thanks!
