Concept and Operation
Concept and Operation
These SOFT KNOBS operate in three different
modes:
modes:
- GLOBAL The knob controls the parameter
that you have set to Global in the SOFT
KNOBS menu regardless of what the other
settings and the selected SINGLE program
may be.

may be.
- SINGLE The knob controls the parameter
that you have set to Single in the SOFT
KNOBS menu. The setting for this parameter
is stored in the SINGLE program and called
up whenever you select this program. If, how-
ever, you have not selected a parameter for
this program (SOFT KNOB Single = OFF), the
setting for SOFT KNOB Global is automatical-
ly enabled.

- MIDICONTRL Here the controller number
entered in the SOFT KNOBS MIDI menu is
sent regardless of what the other settings and
the selected SINGLE program may be. Com-
parable to a small MIDI fader box, this mode
is used to control connected MIDI devices.
Note that this information is not processed in-
ternally in the VIRUS.

Note that this information is not processed in-
ternally in the VIRUS.
The setting for the actual SOFT KNOB mode is
global. Under normal circumstances, you
should set SOFT KNOB mode to ”Single” be-
cause this is the most versatile mode. When
you select a SINGLE sound whose SOFT KNOB
mode is set to ”Single”, this setting is of course
enabled. If not, Global SOFT KNOB mode is en-
abled.

For each SOFT KNOB, you can choose a short
description from a list in the menu, and this will
be saved as part of the SINGLE program. In
Play mode, this will appear in the display – sim-
ply to remind you of what each SOFT KNOB
does while you are playing your Virus.

RANDOM PATCH GENERATOR
The RANDOM PATCH GENERATOR can be
used to generate a new sound automatically or
a modify an existing sound at random. The PAR
DEPTH and AMOUNT parameters let you deter-
mine how radically the sound is changed. De-
pending on the values that you set here, the
RANDOM PATCH GENERATOR will do anything
from modifying sound parameters subtly to
morphing one sound into an entirely different
sound.
