Thanks for bringing this up, I'll investigate this. I don't often use this kind of plucks but I think I remember something like the example you've posted going on in some of the pluck patches, though not that overt.mitchiemasha wrote:Can you do my a favour... I have a Virus TI and a lot of my pluck sounds are ruined due to what we've named Unison Strumming. When using unison and an envelope, the timing in the pluck of each unison is randomly off. A tightness control would be a solution. This may also be what is contributing to the 'fuller' sound to the Virus over Spire that you are mentioning... Perhaps Spire could look into adding this as a feature themselves, although I don't like it. I prefer my plucks to be super tight.recursive one wrote:Here is an example of a simple plucky patch in Virus

Could you try it on your Virus. On the Virus forum, only one other person joined in, they helped and discovered it to be the Unison. I'd originally thought it was the layers of the Hypersaw.
Simply use a Saw wave, add unison and a really tight envelope. The more unison, the worse it gets. If you can find away to tighten it up, you'd be a star.

While we are at it, since nobody in this forum knows Virus better than you, you should be the right person to ask - how the action of this control can be rectreated in other synths, Spire for example? Is it just a transient shaper, or smth more complex (I guess, it acts pre-filter as it is placed in the osc section)? In Spire it is possble to assign an additional envelope to the level of individual oscillator(s), does it make sence?
