thats an interesting take on the v-synth... I actually run my v-synth through an old fender combo amp... sounds awful with my guitar, but for some reason it has decent response to effects heavy signals (like my keyboards)... I had thought of buying a filterbank to give it some character, but Ive never had the experience to actually mess with one first hand... though Id imagine that too would allow the v-synth to get some killer sounds. I can see how you'd imitate a tb-303 by setting up the arpeggiator and step sequencer in verson 2... but what type of guitar effects do you use on the signal? Also, what type of samples do you use to get clear bass sounds out of the v-synth, Id be really interested to see how you program your bass sounds on there?

Admittantly Ive owned my virus' (a TI and a KC) longer than my v-synth so I havent really explored it as much as I could have, its just been discouraging because I have a philosophy which I realized after I bought the v-synth, any piece of kit I should be able to get sounding kick-ace within 30 minutes of first using it (regardless of whether Ive ever touched that gear before) I bought the v-synth because of the incredible sonic acrobatics it can do, but I have yet to get sounds which can really mesh well with the tones I have on my virus... in other words, the tones I get on the v-synth has this digital hue that is sorta two dimensional in comparison to the brilliance of a virus patch.
