Yay - another Virus vs. everything thread. We haven't had one of those in, what, 3 days? :rolleyes:
While we're at it, let's complain about Tiesto. He sucks. Or not...whatever. |

I love to see how the virus snow works with your FL Studio DAW Robby!

The virus is a n dirt monster. "Maybe" you can get near sounds on soft synths but you're gonna waste your time fiddling with knobs for hours on end, layering, STILL to find your timbres sound nothing like the virus.
And besides, there is something unique about the virus in its tonal variations that a soft synth simply CAN NOT emulate.
But more then anything, I got the virus to see for myself why it seems the gold standard in trance music.
If I ever hear one of these ss guys saying "I can make a virus sound with my software", I'm gonna bang out a blazing synth line and tell him to eat it. Its not happening. You are in denial.
Virus simply rapes software like z3ta, I'm getting tired of people sticking up for software that cant compensate, its a joke. |
jesus christ
you've had a hardware synth for what ? 1 day ? Have you even got the synth yet ? You have absolutely no ing idea what you are talking about. How could you possibly form an opinion ? You are one of those knobs that buy into the hype mean while your favproducer is making all his sounds with a basic vst. The virus does nothing special. It is easiliy replicated and if you don't think so, it is because you are poor at sound design.
Any professional will tell you that the virus is a meat and potatoes synth. It sounds good, not great. It is versatile and I suppose a good hardware synth that covers the basics but it is just a synth. The worst part is that you've bought a synth that every single person and their cat owns. You are like those ing retards in school that die their hair black and start listening to fall out boy because he isn't getting invited to any of the parties. |

It just wouldn't be TA without that kind of discussion.
Everytime I get done reading the TA forums, my brain broods just from the influx of bit and pieces of golden intellectual nuggets.
There are forums that are much worse. |

This is getting old.
The Virus is a great synth with a tonne of potential, I'm sure we can all agree on that. At the end of the day though, those who praise it over software are conveniently forgetting that it isn't actually analog, it's practically software inside a hardware box.
You can debate whether this is a good or a bad thing until the cows come home but if you really wanted to talk up hardware synths then you should be getting an analog monster like an Andromeda with real analog characteristics, not a pseudo-hardware synth like the Virus.
Is the Virus a great synth? Yep
Do I want one? ing oath I want one, it's great.
Do I expect analog warmth from it? Nope, because I'm not going to get that.
I'm with Cryo, now that this is covered, someone go and start a few "Tiesto, Deadmau5 and Trance is dead" threads :rolleyes: |

Soon we'll get a thread from Robby saying something like:
"WTF? Why doesn't my Virus automatically make my songs sound better? The presets sound great, why don't they automatically fit in and sound great? Is my Virus broken? How can these guys who only use software make better sounding songs than I can? It's not fair!"
Yes, it's sometimes amusing to hear his internal brain dialogue which he chooses to share with the world, but mostly it's just tiring. Just because he has a thought, or an issue, doesn't mean it needs to be shared with everyone. He could try working through some of these things himself, the way a lot of other people do. |
