As a rule, when you’re processing external audio signals, you need to distinguish between the fol-
lowing two operating modes:
Value Description
DYNAMIC
To make external signals audible in this operating mode, the volume enve-
lope must be triggered via a note. This option, for example, lets you create
typical gater effects. INPUT Dynamic mode is also polyphonic. If you set
the KEYFOLLOW value for the filters to 100%, the resonant frequencies of
the filters and oscillators can be played in a tempered manner via the
INPUT signal. This lets you play entire chords as well as arpeggiator lines
using the filters. The noise generator is also active in INPUT mode.
STATIC
In Input Static mode, the external audio signals are audible via the output
without having to trigger a note. Bear in mind that the oscillators as well as
all functions that have to do with trigger and pitch are disabled (envelopes,
LFO Env mode, keyfollow...) In INPUT Static mode. When you set the
device to this mode, one voice of the Virus is activated automatically. If you
select a stereo source (L+R) for INPUT Select, two voices are activated
much like in UNISON mode: Twin. In this case, you can also use the UNI-
SON Pan Spread parameter to determine the basic width of the panorama
and UNISON LFO Phase to shift the LFO phase position between the
voices.
TOEFFECTS
An alternative to INPUT Static mode, here the audio signal is routed directly
to the effects section of the SINGLE program or PART. This mode doesn’t
use the voices of the Virus, which means that its polyphonic performance
remains fully intact and available. The filter section is unavailable in this
mode.
