the signal path. Delay time and feedback are infinitely variable and may be synced up to the global
clock generator. This means that you can create REVERB effects that are a perfect match for the
rhythmic context.
In PARAMETER mode, you can select various DELAY and REVERB algorithms. Some of the
REVERB algorithms work with parameters that the DELAY algorithms do not use and vice versa, so
we’ll look at these special parameters in a separate section.
In SINGLE MODE, all Delay or Reverb settings apply to the SINGLE PROGRAM in the conventional
manner and are stored along with the program.
However in MULTI MODE, all 16 PARTs access the same Delay or Reverb effect. In this case, the
only dedicated parameter you have available for each part is EFFECT SEND; all other parameters
apply to the same Delay/Reverb unit and affect all PARTs.
Consequently, if you set the Virus to MULTI MODE or MULTI SINGLE MODE, all settings you dial in
for the Delay or Reverb (including EFFECT SEND) affect the MULTI PROGRAM and are stored along
with it. If the Virus is in MULTI MODE or MULTI SINGLE MODE and you activate a new SINGLE, the
Delay/Reverb parameters of the SINGLE are ignored and the Delay/Reverb parameters of the cur-
rent MULTI PROGRAM are activate.
As a rule, in MULTI MODE all SINGLE settings pertaining to the Delay/Reverb are ignored, with the
exception of EFFECT SEND.
EFFECT SEND
The level at which the given sound is patched to the DELAY or REVERB effect is adjusted here.
EFFECT SEND is identical to a post-fader effect bus on a mixing console. When you move the con-
trol toward the end of its control range, the dry signal is faded out and only the wet DELAY/REVERB
signal is audible.
