Can´t find the patch 😔
says the link is faulty
@@mi-fu9jt It is back online again!
@@MartinStuertzer thanks!
Lovely tutorial, lovely Virus, lovely cat!!😃🙏🤗🎶✨✨ Thanks!!
The Virus is a pad monster. I’d like to duplicate this patch on the Hydrasynth with its poly aftertouch. I think it would run out of polyphony though.
I love to see the Virus in this ambient music style, completely different to the EDM stuff you normally see with this synth. It’s such a powerful and versatile machine!
In my 45 years of buying and selling synths, of which some are / were real exotic monsters like M12, PPG2.3, Prophet 5, VS, Polaris, MiniMoogs and much much more, the Virus TI stands it's grounds and is still present in my studio.
This Virus has definitely so much to offer. Nice demo!
Thank you! The Virus is a very valuable instrument indeed!
Martin is there a hardware synth which is good for sound design in the $1,000 range you would recommend?@@MartinStuertzer
Thank you for the walkthrough! The Virus is so impressive and intricate.
Great video and the call at the end has comedy quality :) Amazing! Thanks!
Shift+amp attack to change the patch volume without menu diving. Nice tutorial!
Martin is a hairy humanoid soaking in a bathtub, floating alone in a bubble of absolute and eternal solipsism, imagining a world around itself in all directions.
Let me know which synth you would like to see in my next sound design tutorial! (Please make sure that I have it or you'll need to send it over)
do you have a blofeld? i do similar things with wavetables on mine compared to what you've show in your video on the virus.
I asked You few months ago about pad/pads You made for video "Roland JD-08 Ambient Improvisation" video ;) I know that this synth is not popular but it's extended envelopes are really confusing me. I really don't have idea what waves use to make pads so ethereal as Yours. Cheers !
Mixing Iridium OSC modes in an evolving pad with tons of modulation would be great.
Arturia MicroFreak? But I also would love to see your approach to sound design on Pigments.
@@AmbientAssemblage I don't have a blofeld anymore. But I am certain that it has a similar wavetable.
Lovely pad design and awesome video! Thanks, Martin!
Thank you!
Great that Martin, well explained. I will try to utilise what I absorbed with Pigments and my Deluge. Enlightening 😊 All Best
I love the expression of the simplicity of the concept Martin: just a root and fifth, and debugging (fixing the internal clipping). I think when we see “professional designer patches” from famous names in the marketing of most synthesizers it might make us feel unqualified to design our own patches and we begin to use a VST synth for example as a patch browser which may prevent some opportunities.
Thank you very much! You described my thoughts about sound design very well.
When I was very young 50 years ago at one point I found a cardboard box in the back of a cabinet in my school’s music classroom of Bakelite electronics cases with many 1/4” patch cords. As I investigated I discovered they were synthesizer “black box” components forgotten and of no interest to other students. This was a real find for me. They had knobs and were labeled OSC, ENV, LO, HI, GATE, RNG etc. I began to experiment with plugging them into the famous wedge shaped Yamaha guitar amp. That was simplicity.
I tried to accomplish something similar to this today with a VST and I will need more practice because it’s a lot more complicated to achieve simplicity than it might seem.
I learned subtractive synthesis with my Korg MS2000, same principles apply to all other (subtractive) synths. It only took me a day to have fun with the Virus TI2, everything is well-structured and menu diving is kept to a minimum given the possibilities.
Very nice!!!
Had been struggling with the clipping on mine, thanks for that simple solution! 😊
Nice pad .. still love programming mine.
Great and a lot of tips that I can use to improve my sound design for the Virus 👍. Although an "old" synthesiser the Virus offers so much power (and fun) to play and to create sounds.
Wow, that was quick - I only requested this a few days ago! 😅 Herzlichen Dank, Martin! ❤
Bittesehr!
I love this very much, I hope to recreate this on some soft synth :)
What a stunning pad, & thanks for sharing! To bad Access provides zero support for this hardware-- from what I'm told. I cant understand why they abandoned such incredible iconic instruments.
Even though I don't own a Virus TI, I found it interesting to watch how it works and the wonderful space sounds it creates.
I also learned a couple of pointers that may apply to my VSTs and PlugIn systems.
Thank you Martin :)
@@MyAmbientRelaxation Oh nice! I will look into it. Thank you MyAmbient :)
I can't thank you enough for this, Martin. It's really opened the door for some much needed inspiration. I'll be making pads for days!😂
Can I place my vote for a Pro 2 pad tutorial utilizing those amazing filters? Anything Pro 2 would be awesome.
The 2MGT Modularis softsynth would be a good one to fathom. I've tried but its esoteric to say the least! What it produces though is incredible and I'm sure you could get to grips with it Martin 😊
Someone like you living this close for all these years... Wish I'd known about you sooner, wouldn't have felt so out of place here with my taste
Thanks for this! And also props for showing it on the synth itself....I'm guessing a number of TI2 owners here that can't use the vst on the newer Macs!
NIce !! and HI to Neptun!
hi there! 😺
I shake and shiver uncontrollably, realizing that I almost sold my arctic white Virus TI2 to a friend a few days ago… Seeing one of my biggest idols putting so much love into this machine, I will give it another try to reignite my personal fire for the Virus and start over again… After Martin’s video I otherwise would have suffered severe seller’s regret. Thank you, Martin! You saved me from doing something completely stupid (selling my Virus). Stay as you are and please keep rockin’ and rolling for all of us synth freaks out there. Love and light from Khao Lak, Thailand 🇹🇭❤️☀️🏖🌴🥥🐘
Oh no, don't sell the Virus TI! I made another tutorial with the Virus, you can find it on my channel as well. Have fun and best wishes to Khao Lak!
@@MartinStuertzer - Your wish is my command :o) I'll keep this beauty... forever!!! Love and light to Wuppertal
Hey guys! I have the whiteout access virus, 61key model. I really want to sell it because I just can't see how it can do things that other vsts can't already do? Please tell me what you think is so special about the virus? I agree it sounds really nice, but i find it really difficult to integrate into my workflow (patching, cloning, layering). Having to use just one instance of the virus in a project really makes me feel like i need to use it properly, and i still don't really understand what its strengths are. Sharp leads can be done with phaseplant, ambient overtone pads can be done with Algoritm and other fm synths, chunky basses with diva etc. even the reverb can be captured as an impulse response. I really want to know what is the super thing it can do that nothing else can do!!
The one thing (to my knowledge) that nothing else can do, is modulating the entire wavetable, which is a lot of fun, and also the TrueSemitones Just intonation feature.
Let me know what you think!
@@MrReeTart - if you see it that way, then you could basically sell all of your synths that are not a 100% analog... and perhaps even the analogues too if you can't hear, feel and appreciate the warmth and genuine dissonances a physical analog synth provides.
Different musicians have different tastes/preferences/requirements/perceptions when it comes to synths... Some (like me) simply love to be surrounded by beautiful machines (like sitting in a space ship cockpit) and love to tweak sounds by pressing real buttons and physically turning knobs instead of using a mouse or automated software to create music.
And - at least for me - this becomes more and more of an issue while Ai is getting stronger by the day, almost being forced down our throats, while mainstream media tells us lies like a life in the Metaverse - and whatever else artificial worlds are being created on the web - is as nice, full and rich as the true life we live... (well, some don't, but I hope you get my point).
I want the REAL Experience!!! Owning and playing keyboard synths is the real deal, like truly being under water doing scuba diving and experiencing the marine life first hand, whereas watching a documentary on scuba diving in your living room while eating pizza definitely won't even come close...
Getting back to the subject - the TI2 - well look at this beauty!!! The blue heartbeat light thingy beneath the logo on the back of this perfect machine, the design, the cheeks, the sturdiness of the case... It's a piece of art, making beautiful sounds! It's a classic and holds true value! It's the real deal! You can touch it and you can feel it and not VST could give you that.
@@FrankyGun Well, it's a digital synth. So in theory I can have it running in an emulator with a midi controller. Then have all those knobs mapped to different parameters in the way that is most convenient for me! I'm just trying to pull Ableton 'out of the computer' with many different midi controllers and routings..
So I can understand wanting to have immediate intuitive control over a synth, but this isn't really exclusive to analog/v-analog gear.
Thinking I should get an osmose and some multipurpose knobs and faders...
Well thank you for your input!! It's much appreciated 👍
I love my TI2 keyboard synth and your video was a great help in creating lovely pad's but i see you have a sub 37 , i have just purchased one , i wonder if you could explain the 2 mod buses and how to customise them , would be a great help , it sounds great with the Virus !! 😍
Super Patch - danke! Gerne mehr vom Virus, der meiner Meinung nach neben dem Blofeld mit am besten klingt in Anbetracht der VA-Synthies. Beim modernen Iridium bin ich mir abgesehen von seiner unschlagbaren Engine immer noch nicht sicher, ob er besser klingt oder mithalten kann, wobei der Quantum definitiv anders klingt, aber auch mehr kostet. Beim Iridium sind es diese miesen Resonanzen, die ich oft bei Demos raushöre, während die genannten VAs meistens super klingen, also muss was daran sein.
Viele Presets vom Iridium sind nicht sehr gut und die meisten Demos gefallen mir auch nicht. Die Sound Engine kann mit dem Blofeld mithalten, sofern ich das beurteilen kann. Ich hatte länger keinen mehr in der Hand.
@@MartinStuertzer Ich hoffe wirklich, dass das so ist. Der Blofeld hat diesen charakterstarken Klang mit so vielen Sweetspots und die Samples darin, hören sich auch super an. Der Iridium/Quantum ist eigentlich ein Traumsynthesizer der alles an Synthesemöglichkeiten bietet und besonders stark, ist die Granular-Funktion. Er würde eigentlich so viele teure Synthesizer obsolet machen, dass man sparen kann. Wobei ich auch nicht verstehen kann, warum nur ein Stereoausgang und Duotimbralität möglich ist.
Der Sound ist aber am Ende das aller wichtigste - für mich zumindest, weil sonst macht es einfach keinen Spaß. Quantum klingt für mich auf jeden Fall wärmer und schöner, da bin ich mir sicher - bei jeder Demo hört man direkt den unterschied. Keine Ahnung ob das an den anlogen Filtern liegt oder doch irgendwie was anders verbaut worden ist.
I really love this Maschine. Sadly it isn’t made anymore. The initial sound of the pad instantly made me think of „Fade to grey“ by Visage…
The prices on the used market are very low, I would gave a look there!
@@MartinStuertzer ...da geh' ich doch mal schauen🙂
Space pads are the best pads 🙂And the virus does them really well. Question: When you add the 5th interval on the second oscillator, I guess you need to watch out which chord voicing to use as not to produce notes outside of the scale?
Most of the time the fifth will be part of the scale. Only the fifth on top of the 7th note will produce a dissonant note when you are in a minor scale for example.
Это же Гвидон Вишневский ))))
How would you go about making a wide, spacey bass sound on your Virus?
Your cat seems to understand English, nice job! 😊
always wanted to get a virus. guess i'm stuck with my janky blofeld for now :)
Dad's talking to the camera again - I'm gunna eat his plant. ^_^
Neptun was bonkers today. Later he climbed upon the shelves where the Moogerfooger are.
And at the end the so called "Telephone-Effect" (a call from Edgar?) ... Fine, thanks 🙂
Haha, no, it was just Deutsche Post. But they had good news for me and everyone who is going to order a vinyl record from my shop in the future.
😅👍@@MartinStuertzer
@@MartinStuertzerPrima!
or not country Germany 2023?
I am not sure if I get the question, but yes, I am from Germany and last time I checked it was 2023.
