Yeah, why is that? When doing 'blind tests' by listening to dry oscillators from several sources (including, especially, the Juno, Pulse, Jupiter and others, as well as the Virus), the Virus always seems so, so very dreadfully thin in these comparisons, even when they've all been programmed similarly. Why don't Access address that? |
Because you are not listening to as dry a signal as you think you are. Most synths have an eq curve applied to them internally which is impossible to bypass. Roland's are bassey and toppy. Waldorf Q's are just toppy. So, in actual fact, Access
have addressed this by giving the Virus an EQ as well the Analog Boost effect - however, the purist attitude which seems to be so pervasive in the synth community seems to forbid their use when judging a synthesizer.
