Comments from User studios

  • I have POLAR TI... (feelda303 studio studio)
  • Oh my god! I thought the Virus A was good, then I got this beast for almost the same price! My, my, my... It oozes of quality and an aura that just makes you look at it and admire the design, but you can't because that same aura forces you to linger a lust that just makes you play with it! THIS is my all time favourite synth. Me and the 37-key Access Virus Indigo 2, which equivalents a Virus C, just with a small keyboard, have had plenty of good hours where we just played around with the patches and ultimately improving them :) The thing is, its sound is exactly like the previous Virus models (A, B, PoCo), but the features are greatly enhanced with more polyphony (I could actually play two or three notes of my fully one-note unisoned UnisonLead made with the Virus A!). It is true that Viruses are infectious and also may develop with an increased amount of... let's just say features that one cannot fight just yet. :) (CyberKenny Home Studio studio)
