How to open Virus soundbanks in Viper
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 янв 2025
- The biggest feature in Viper version 1.1.0 is the ability to import Virus soundbanks! Explore thousands of presets made for the Virus with this new feature! To use this feature you need to download the free Virus waveforms available on Viper's webpage: www.adamszabo..... Please note that not all Viper patches will sound 100.00% identical to the Virus sounds. The Virus and Viper are two different synths, written in a completely different way. The Virus has features that Viper does not have, and vice-versa. Not all patches will be compatible and those will sound nothing like the original. If the Virus patch uses the same features that Viper has, the conversion will be much more accurate. Please keep that in mind when importing the Virus patches.
omg ADAM!! This is just amazing!! Now I can open my old access Virus sounds into Viper!!! This is like treasure hunting and finally digging up a chest of money, only better! Thanks Adam, you rock!
Viper plugin paid and bough pretty fast when I found this out :)
amazing work, Adam! thank you for all the updates and support, this opens up so many possibilities...
Great update for a GREAT Synth. Thanks for the effort to your customers, Adam.
Viper is truly a powerful virus emulation. In fact, if the presets created on Viper were adapted to the Virus, it would actually be great.
Hello, Adam! I ve tested more than 15 different libs from my Virus Ti and Virus C, and all works perfectly in Viper!
just WOW!
I have a feature idea: to reverse-convert patches from Viper to classic Virus models and Ti models!
And another feature would be cool: randomization of parameters with the Randomize button!
Can you guys share the Ti soundbanks so I can use it with Viper pls? Or direct me where I can download it. Thank you
What an update. For little money a virus as vst with thousands of sounds. The outstanding feature is the possibility to use your own wavetables.
Thank you so much, Adam, for this huge accomplishment!! The ultimate missing dream feature became reality! 🙌🏻😃
wow! time to test the demo with my Andi Vax Signature Virus TI 2 bank! )
Awesome !!! keep up the good work Adam
Fantastic option. Best update ever!
Thanks mate this was helpful. Worth every penny :)
Nice! Loaded up my patches, sounds great.
Great job!
Beautiful work 👏👏👏
Thank you Adam for this great, incredible synthesizer. Viper is my favorite virtual synthesizer. The big and very pleasant surprise is that I can open presets for an access virus in a viper. Great job, thank you so much again Adam. 👍👍👍👍
Are you going to create a MacOs Version?
thats damn close! well done Adam!
ooh this is a gamechanger. thank you
This is amazing, one handy tool though would be the ability to mass convert our VirusTI Midi to FXB instead of saving them individually :D
looks great
Amazing.. again..
Just about to download demo and try some of the Vitus banks before I purchase but the demo don’t let you import mid file 😢
wow. just wow. thank you so much
doesn't work so well on all sounds. but defo some. amazing achievement to be honest regardless. Thank you so much
i put the folders in the correct locations but it doesn't work for me. it doesn't detect the wav files as a soundbank or preset
This is ubelivable, you beated Virus
How can I resolve the issue of missing waveforms, Ive loadded them into the waveforms but still nothing? Anyone?
You didnt put them into the correct folder if they dont show up
@@adamszabomusic Ah, ill hate to check that out then and thanks a lot!!!
Zseniális!
If you don't have a virus. Can i find the soundbanks somewhere?
Did you manager to find sound bank from Ti? If so where
That's awesome :-)
Nice work mate. Installed and it works great. 2 things i would ask if its possible. 1. In the Patchbrowser do you think its possible to move inbetween sounds with the cursor keys ? Would make it much easier to navigate throu sounds. 2. Steinberg is droping VST2 from now in 2 years. Do you plan to port it in vst3 to stay compatible ? Would be cool, all cubase users couldnt use your synth anymore then.
I did try to have cursor keys in the browser, but it wont work so well in some DAWs because cursor keys will do different things. You cannot really tell the DAW to only use those keys when the plugin is open. If other plugin makers figured out a way how to do it I can try to add it. Yes VST3 is still buggy and has issues but once its ironed out, it will be available before Steinberg drops VST2.
Hi Adam, any news on Viper VST3?
I have only Viper. Is it possible to import Access Virus soundbank even then? I cant find 'import .mid bank' option in menues.
You need to update your viper to 1.1.0
I am guessing i need a Virus to be able to do this and its not a soundpack i can just download?
No you dont need a virus thats the whole point. You only need to acquire virus soundbanks
@@adamszabomusic Thank you so much for the quick reply! Just bought this about an hour ago and love it. How do i get virus soundbanks?
@@pulsefrequency2113 thanks for the support! There are lots of virus banks, google will find it for you ;)
haha, thanks man. I just got really excited and didn't want to read anything \m/
Awesome
possible to add program change in the future? for this I will buy it :) also a mac version will be amazing thank you Adam
there is already program change in Viper. you can use the midi cc# 19 to change presets, which is the standard.
i appreciate soft synths but preferred the romplers more (atmosphere/kontakt)
for those raw wav files direct from the outputs of the synths
but the more I research that psy kicks for example are best when synthesized (bazzism)
and the super/hypersaws are best from synths (JP/Virus)_not samples_ive gotta have it
Nice!! Maybe an akward question, but where can I start to learn to use . Just bought but seems kin of hard to understand
The best way to start is to read the manual, then play around with existing presets and see what each control does. It takes a long time to learn just like learning an instrument, but its not that difficult if you find it fun.
Can you add the option to lock the arp settings? Like, if i change preset, it automaticly turns on the arp. But I never use the arp thats in the plugin, i always create my own in the pianoroll of fl studio or cubase
Yes you can lock all the different sections. Move your mouse over the long line where it says "ARP SETTINGS" or "ARP PATTERN" and double click on it and it will be locked.
preset DromeCrdMS why sounds on Virus more punchy and agressive?
Viper is not a 1:1 virus clone, there will always be some differences. You will anyway add eq to viper in a production and you can shape it the way you like
@@adamszabomusic thx for answer, anyway your vst is amazing! I hope there will be further improvements and additions
Hello Adam,
can you tell the Viper v1.1.0 is now 64-bit VSTi for Windows platform?
(I've seen in your PDF, 1-2 System Requirements, the Viper plugin requires an internal bridge for 64-bit host).
Thanks in advance.
Hi, yes the Viper manual is for Viper version 1.0 and its a bit outdated, I should have updated it. Viper is now a native 64 bit VST you dont need a bridge. Make sure you try the demo version and see if it works on your system ;)
@@adamszabomusic Excellent news, thanks for your (quick) reply, I'll test the demo version. ;)
I see that whenever the virus preset is using the guitar cabinet distortion effects, Viper instead just ignore it and do not implement distortion at all, do you plan to implement an alternative for those guitar cab in the future?, although at this point only Virus C preset actually load perfectly without a problem because it doesn't require those guitar cabs
Not every Virus Ti preset uses the cabinet, its a very small percentage that actually use them so its not a big deal, so viper can load Virus Ti banks just fine. I am not an expert in cabinets, so I dont know when they will be in Viper, but in the meantime its better to use other guitar cabinet VSTs on it.
@@adamszabomusic I dont know if you already checked most of the presets that is out there floating, but I find that a lot of bass presets use those guitar cab distortion. It might help these preset if maybe you implement it as IR guitar cabinet instead, although just my crude idea (im sure someone will find a way to sample those virus guitar cab distortion within IR).
How do you feel about the recent release of the DSP 56300 (Virus B and C) emulator?
Viper and DSP 56300 are 2 different approaches. Viper is an emulation....DSP is a clone. I love them both...! Which Rom's are next? Nordlead/DiscoDSP...im very curious what will happen in the near future.
I think its an amazing achievement what they have made. Since Viper is a different synth, there could be new features added later in the future, where as the Virus will be what it is, it seems they stopped development on it a long time ago.
@@janvisser1963 The guys involved in the emulator project are trying to emulate the Waldorf MicroQ and Microeave II/XT synths. At the moment, they are only focusing on synths that use one DSP.
CPU HOG
@@ВладимирХ-д2ы Which one? Neither synth is a CPU hog on both of my computers!
so.. you can open virus soundbanks, but.. BUT.. can you create sounds in viper and export them for use in a virus?
Unfortunately no, thats not possible. Opening and reading .mid files is easier than creating them.
Do I put copy them into the User or Factory folder? That's not quite clear....
It is explained in the Read me text file quite clearly: To use them in Viper, simply put the "Virus Classic Waveforms" in the "Waveforms" folder, and the "Virus TI Wavetables" into the "Wavetables" folder.
Dont put them in User or Factory just the main directory
@@adamszabomusic thanks for your quick reply! I was a bit in doubt because normally you put them in one of the subfolders.
**I WAS HERE**
Can you load 3rd party soundbanks from different sound designers into Viper? they are in the .mid format. Can Viper import this and how? do you need the newest version 1.1 ?
Mandy Lane has a video showing her using 3rd party presets in Viper but she does not show how she imported them ??
Yes you can load 3rd party banks and you need the new version 1.1.0
Does the synth load virus powercore banks?
in theory it should yes
does Viper have its own wavetables?
Is it possible to fully edit these wavetables and adding FX in Viper, or is it just the preset and what you hear is what you get?
Yes you can edit
You mention that Viper has features that the Virus doesn't have, and vice versa. Could you give a quick rundown of the Viper's unique features as well as those that are missing from the Virus?
The Virus has an atomizer effect, grain-table, and formant-table oscillators. The Viper does not have as many effects and LFO waveforms. On the other hand, Viper allows for single cycle waveforms and Serum wavetables to be imported.
@@jackcimino8822 Viper also has an extra step sequencer above the arp and you can create more interesting sequences. Viper also has shimmer on the reverb which the Virus doesnt have. Viper also has Midi out to control other synthesizers with its arpeggiator, and you can resize the gui + have different skins
@@adamszabomusic thanks for clarifying!
@@adamszabomusic any plans to add those missing effects from Virus to Viper?
@@timsamsung3736 which effects?
Does it works with virus ti2?
Yes
This is awesome except dont you need a virus synth to do this or am I missing something ?
No, you dont need a Virus, just load a bank and thats it
where can I download factory Virus patches?
There are some here: www.virus.info/forum/index.php?thread/6203-help-virus-ti-desktop-patch-list-factory-restore/
works on ever virus bank?
Not on every one but most
@@adamszabomusic Im on family Thanks for this new world :)
Sadly this is not available for mac users, I could have tried it once
Forget about Mac. Use the Windows.
@@identificator and why to forget about mac? :)
Can the demo load the virus banks? Edit: it can't, guys, I downloaded it now. ;)
Can you guys share the Ti soundbanks so I can use it with Viper pls? Or direct me where I can download it. Thank you
Mac version please… I’ll buy today!
I wish to see a Ipad version
Bru
i always wanted the irus synth but it cost too much but this is good news this new feature it is ery cool.. i count virus hardware should not cost so much money i know many trance or dance djs hae this synth in their studio but its oerrated for the price.
unbelievable amazing work, Adam!
