I can see now why there's a huge admiration for Access synths. I did encounter some timing issues during playback in Cubase but it bounces just fine. I will deffo be using this again
its running the rom in a PC shell and GUI, so its not actually emulation, its just the engine in a different body you could say... in other words, its not emulating anything...
@@PedroAnastazi Actually what you said is only possible because it's an actual emulation of the DSP hardware chipset many synths had to create the sound and effects, like it happens in this case with the Virus, among others. So indeed it's an emulation in the most literal possible way. Similar for instance to videogame console emulators that emulate the physical hardware of a console. You are right though in relation that it sounds the very same because it is using the very same core the hardware virus actually runs. But again, that is only possible thanks to the emulation of the chipset.
@@Jeslandor u explained it better than I did. When I looked into this, it turns out it all started from MAME, which is something I'm very familiar with since its inception, so the idea of hw mimicry is close to home. Either way, they've done wonders with the Motorola chipset for years now & it's good to see its not just on games
This is like the real thing. After testing it only 3 minutes it sounded better to me than all my in the box synth (all native instruments and arturia). Of course it needs a much more indepth testing. But that was my first impression. Btw. I own the hardware virus.
I will always remenber my first Virus synth vsti, ANOTHER DIMENSION! in 2001 ^^ The sound was just very good, and i never find this virus version again, later. It was made with 4 yellow losanges with an X/Y. If somebody remember...
Did you test it with a antivirus program ? Because the message you're speaking about is just a warning. The file is not downloaded often (compared to very well-known apps) hence the warning. A warning is not a virus detection, just a warning. If you trust the source, you can go on. It is also a way to force you to use "store" apps by using the fear that can induce such messages...
Hello people, I downloaded this VSTi and it said I need to get the ROM file from either the Virus B or C and that its a .bin file, where can I get this file, does anyone know.
does anyone have a full kit ready to go ?? Rom and all ?? Im at their page and tryin to work out how to get this going... maybe im just having a dumb day.... :(
Awesome. Hah I'm playing this right now using my Virus KB (Fatar TP/8S keyboard). Rendundant? No way. Can't get infected enough. It sounds the same as the KBs internal hardware.
Qué lastima un buen rato tratando de entender cómo bajarme este estupendo vst pero no pude. No es clara la página y puros zar que al extraer y ejecutar.. resulta que no puedo abrirlos. Acostumbrado a los videos de descarga algo más sencillos.. este.. me lo pasaré ni modo.
How did you install this ? For some reason when I put the folders into the VST3 folder and scan for plugins they disappear, but only when using with FL
I’m a bit confused. I own a desktop virus TI but don’t have enough space. I love it but don’t use it. I emailed access about going ilok or small usb hardware security device skipping plugging in Virus. I would love a plugin version for logic. I don’t really understand this. So I can download this and import my virus patches and it will work? So Roms are like wav patches? I can only find 128 from version C
It wouldn't be more accurate though, they can match it with insane effort, but never surpass this emulation. From the business point of view it doesn't make sense to emulate the Virus to offer a less accurate rendition I guess.
Theres already a good one by Adam Szasbo called Viper- its very close. I however like this, its authentic plus few technical issues. CPU use is pretty good, just the odd spike now and again on some patches.
Soon many DIGITAL SYNTHS.. will be available.. just wait.. ROMS will be online in many places,, and exact GUI models will appear by collaborators worldwide.. and performance for old laptops pcs will be ok when coding get better. YUK01
I have problem with that. My processor using almost 90% and sound is cracking. My sound card is from motherboard msi but i have Asio drivers and 512 latency. Processor is Pentium i3 4170. What i can do to improve that? I see good working here.
I cant seem to get the vst2 to run in ableton...I installed the dll file into my vst folder, placed the virus b rom in the folder but ableton doesnt display the plugin after scanning and restarting
What the heck is a ROM file and where do I get one, please? A search provides a confusing array of results that I cannot parse. EDIT: Just read that sharing ROMs is illegal! Hmmm...
To be totally legal, buy a hardware unit. Even people with hardware units will want this, as its so much more practical to work in the box for many of us!
The CPU DSP processing is unbearable, causes glitches and stutters on most patches. If only I can find a Monster computer to run this on! The devs did not entertain multi-cpu processing when they designed this emulator. You can have a 16 core behemoth Mac Pro and it will still bring it to it knees b/c the code will only use one processor. Even in the video I can hear the CPU glitching out from this emulator. What a shame. when you can get a sound out of it, it does sound amazing, and that is a big if.
@FunkRaum You can probably buy an actual virus for the cost of a PC to be able to run this by the sounds of it. Thankfully i have one! And i must say, i'm actually not sure this sounds THAT much like my virus.... It definitely sounds like it. But i wouldn't say 100%.... but then maybe it's just the way i use my virus compared to these patches, and also.... who cares. It sounds great still :)

This is so damn good, I'm speechless. Sound quality is off the planet!
This is so true. If you never try it on your computer you will never know what you have missed all the years.
I can see now why there's a huge admiration for Access synths. I did encounter some timing issues during playback in Cubase but it bounces just fine.

Maybe the best VST emulation yet. I use it and its EXACT sound as the hardware to my ears. The filters the modulaton etc
its running the rom in a PC shell and GUI, so its not actually emulation, its just the engine in a different body you could say... in other words, its not emulating anything...
Makes sense thanks. interesting thanks.
A bit of a CPU hog so far, but im really enjoying it.

Yes it is. Totally blow them all out of the window to my ears but that's me. Im going to dig deeper into this wonder.
I agree, its jaw droppingly good. Now I know what people were raving about with the hardware ones!
Its great and just getting better. I use viper for virus wavetable stuff. Preset import works great and is reallh cool feature too
It's insane seriously. It's so easy to get good sounds out of this. I wish I had found this sooner tbh.
@@kaitsu9608 Does the viper sounds as good as the osirius?
Very good selection of patches. They cut so weel through a mix, glad i can test it now.

Thank you so much for the work on this fantastic emulator. 🙏
Cannot wait for the other stuff you guys will do.
got mine working too, its amazing. That moonpad JS is awesome and inspiring
Michael do you know where to get the ROM file...?
In past 2 days I've installed this, the OsTIrus, MicroQ and Microwave XT emulations. I'm in heaven!
where to get microQ emulation? and do i need the rom for it?

WHERE TO FIND THE ROM ?
Can you use patches meant for the hardware version?
Downloaded it, said it might contain a virus 'cause it was not commonly downloaded. I was shocked to find out that there was, in fact, a Virus inside.
boomtsk !!! Well played... bonus points there.. lollll

There's no faff. You just drop the 2 folders/files into your plugin folder. That's it.
