I am having problems getting this sound right. I cant post a sample cuz im at work. How do you get that thick trance pluck sound. I remember in an earlier post derivative was helpin me out on how to program my virus. when I program the filters envelope (short attack, short decay, zero sustian & release) .My plucks sound hallow, how can i thiken them up?

You have a TI right? Just switch all oscs to hypersaw =)

I sent mine to get exchanged remember? lol so not at the moment, butI dont think its just hypersaws though. I think I need to use recursive modulation on the ADSR of the filter.-

id get a nice supersaw patch up and just fiddle around with the envelope and filter controls

well ok, thank you for sharing your bad experience, now i don`t buy one.
too much what`s going wrong with it.
almost bought it second hand.

You need to use the filter envelope, not just the amp envelope, and make sure that you turn up the "env amount" dial in order for the filter envelope to actually work.

yea i know that, but my plucks where coming out weak. A member on this board was talking about recursive modulation for the filter envelope to make it non-linear. I just wanted to see if anyone had gotten any good results to share just there filter settings.

lolz I was gonna say, if you have a virus TI and can't come up with this sound you're either deaf or blind, or both. I can slap my dick on the keyboard when the virus plugin is up and find 10 mint sounds like this in under a minute.

lol although sean walsh is a pro... I wouldnt recomend anyone slapping their penis on hardware! but in any case. Your right sean, the Ti its realy easy to get sounds out of. Thing is... its getting replaced with a desktop version that I dont have in front of me yet. what I do have however is the classic at the moment and it doesnt get good thick plucks for arps. I just wanted to see if there where any pointers untill i get my TI back.
