LFO 3
You will find another LFO in the EDIT menu. In comparison to the others, this LFO is a stripped-down
version. Basically all it does is control the frequencies of the two oscillators. It is primarily used to
generate vibrato independently of the main LFOs. You can control its effect on the oscillators via the
modulation wheel. For more information on this LFO, refer to the detailed section of the manual.
Volume and Panorama Position
You probably noticed that the many of the sound shaping options available in the Virus occasionally
influence the volume level. For instance, an unfiltered sawtooth is naturally louder than a highly filtered
sawtooth because whenever you blend a part of the frequency spectrum out of the mix, you are
automatically reducing the overall volume of the signal. This is why the Virus is equipped with a
programmable volume pot for each SINGLE PROGRAM. It enables you to balance out the volume levels
of your sound programs.
Locate the parameter PATCH VOLUME in the OUTPUT section of the EDIT menu. Its value is set to 100
so that you have a reserve or headroom of 27 volume increments when you are dealing with highly
filtered sounds.
You have already dealt with the Panorama position as a modulation target of LFO 2. Here you can not
only modulate it, but also determine settings manually. For this purpose, use the parameter
PANORAMA
 which is also located in the OUTPUT section of the EDIT menu. Like many other
parameters, Panorama is a starting point for modulations. For instance you can modulate the Panorama
position via LFO 2 even if you have already set the Panorama to the far left position. In this case of
course you will only hear the Panorama position shift to the right.
