Modus Operandi<br />
Mode / Exit Button<br />
Depending on what you want to achieve with your <strong>Virus</strong> <strong>TI</strong> <strong>Snow</strong>, there are three different ‘modes’ to choose<br />
from.Pressing the MODE button brings up a menu from which you can select one of three modes: Single,<br />
Multi or Sequencer. Select the one you want using the Value 1 knob or the Value +/- keys, then press MODE<br />
again to confirm the selection.<br />
••<br />
Single Mode<br />
This is the default mode, in which the <strong>Virus</strong> will only play one sound at a time across the whole length of your<br />
MIDI controller keyboard.<br />
••<br />
Multi Mode<br />
In Multi mode, you can have up to 4 different sounds playing at a time. Each of these 4 sounds is handled<br />
by a ‘Part’, and each Part has its own performance settings, such as volume, pan position, transpose etc.<br />
By assigning the same MIDI channel to each Part, you can easily create fantastic combinations of any of the<br />
available presets, which can be arranged in layers or split into different key zones.<br />
The <strong>Virus</strong> <strong>TI</strong> <strong>Snow</strong> has 64 slots for storing your Multi setups. These are ‘embedded’ Multis, by which we<br />
mean that they store all the data for the patches they use, so any edits you make to the sounds can be<br />
stored along with the Multi itself, without having to worry about affecting the original copies of the Single presets<br />
themselves.<br />
••<br />
Sequencer Mode<br />
Sequencer mode is a simplified version of Multi mode designed for use with a software sequencer. Each of<br />
the 4 Parts is set to its equivalent MIDI channel, and the performance settings are mostly hidden, as it is expected<br />
that you would rather use your sequencer to control these things.<br />
Please note that you cannot store your settings in Sequencer mode - if it is important to do so, you should<br />
use Multi mode instead.<br />
••<br />
Exit<br />
Pressing this button from within any of the edit menus will bring you back out into the top page of the currently<br />
selected mode.
