Congratulations!
Maybe it's obvious, but

• Download all free patches from the Access Virus official site; go over them study the ones you find interesting (most patches by Richard Devine are downright crazy btw );
• Watch all "Virus bootcamp" videos (on the same site or on Vimeo), they are short and to the point;
• Study "Programming Analogue Synthesizers" by Howard Scarr (should come with your Snow, also available for free download from the Access Site). Lots of good stuff there - general info and Virus-specific;
• There are some "making XX sound on Virus" videos on YouTube (just do a search) - pretty basic, but somewhat useful; and also Virus masterclass from SOS.

hope this helps ))

EDIT: sorry, didn't notice the keywords "meantime" and "head start" ))
So, ignore the first point - everything else you can do while waiting for your Snow to arrive.

Nice one! Will check out all of the above. Yeah, the Snow should arrive this weekend, so this will keep me busy the next couple of days. I've done a few searches and found loads of patch libraries... just gotta figure out which ones would be worth purchasing..

Cheers
