Well.........its been taken down off the site......this has happened many times before so im not suprised.

Well theres certainly going to be a new synth for 2009....thats for sure. I'm sorry you guys didnt get the chance to see it, must have only been up for a matter of hours...maybe less than an hour.

I wish I had screen printed it when i had the chance. Basically (from memory) the new virus is going to feature:

1) Advanced FM/Formant and Wavetable synthesis akin to DX7/FS1r and Wavestation/PPG Wave. User samples via TI. Joystick for manipulation.

2) True analog filters modelled on the classic Virus digital filters. I did not note the number but should allow for 16 voices I should imagine

3) Total Integration via USB2 (standard) and Firewire (optional)

4) New Vocoder

5) Synth will be jet black in color with legends in white type face (think Prophet 5) and logos in Red/Blue, wood sidepanels. I have to admit it reminds me of a cross between an OB8, Prophet 5, Juno 60 and Jupiter 8. From the picture I saw.....its the best looking Virus yet....and possibly (almost) pips the JP8 (which is my all time favourite).

Thats all I can remember folks. I cant add to that until they officially announce it.

Cheers

Digi,

Does the new Virus Ti have simulated female human nipples for knobs or not?

You missed the one question on everyone's mind...

What about the nipple knobs?!?

Digi, Is it not funny that you bought a Nord 3 again? I'm guilty of a similar crime. I've bought a Motif Rack ES twice. My Nord is the NL2. It might go on eBAY soon. Although I love it to death, I have noticed that synth I bought a few synths to tinker with, that I am fucking with MIDI way more than making music, so I am seriously considering keeping only my KC and my ES rack, and the rest will be softies. Sometimes less is more!
