handling so much easier, is the ideal choice
when you're working with a connected se-
quencer.
Please bear in mind that MULTI SINGLE mode
is really just another view of the normal MULTI
mode. MULTI SINGLE mode doesn't offer a
unique data type for storing sounds, it always
works with the MULTI program currently select-
ed in normal MULTI mode. All of the normal
MULTI mode parameters (keyboard zones, etc.)
remain intact and in force even though you
can't view or vary them in MULTI SINGLE
mode. You can set the device to normal MULTI
mode at any time by pressing the MULTI but-
ton. To return to the MULTI SINGLE mode view,
simply press the MULTI and SINGLE buttons si-
multaneously.
When you're working with a sequencer, start
with a MULTI program that features neutral set-
tings for its "administrative" parameters, for ex-
ample, the MULTI program M0 Sequencer. Here
the PART numbers are identical to the MIDI
channels of the PARTs. Now when you work in
MULTI SINGLE mode, the Virus responds as if it
were in SINGLE mode, except that you have 16
sounds available simultaneously on 16 MIDI
channels. Use the PART buttons to select these
sounds.
You only need to exit MULTI SINGLE mode
when you want to store the MULTI program, for
example, to save the current global delay/re-
verb setting. In MULTI mode, these settings are
not stored along with SINGLE sounds.
In addition, you can activate another complete
MULTI program in MULTI mode only.
The MULTI mode parameters feature a dedicat-
ed menu called the Multi Edit menu. Access it
by pressing the Multi button while the device is
in MULTI mode. The LED located over the MUL-
TI button will light up to indicate that the Multi
Edit menu is active. Press the MULTI button
again to return to normal Play mode. If the de-
vice is in MULTI-SINGLE mode, press the MUL-
TI and SINGLE buttons simultaneously to
access the Multi Edit menu. It suffices to press
either the MULTI or SINGLE button to return to
normal Play mode from MULTI-SINGLE mode.
