Virus TI 2.0 - Grain table synthesis w00t!

OS 2.0 for Virus TI has some new oscillator types:
"The new version features additional oscillator types, enhanced Wavetable synthesis and more wavetables. It allows you to see how expensive a chosen patch is and features Section Locking through Virus Control. Patches can be finally sorted by category and the onboard patch ROM contains addition 256 sounds by Matthew Stolley and Matt Picone.
We have included new oscillator modes, greatly expanding on the flexibility of these already powerful sound-sculpting tools.
The remaining oscillator modes all make use of a new technology for the Virus TI, called Grain Table. The basic idea behind this technology, is to take the existing wavetables, and apply similar techniques as those used in some granular sampling and pitch-shifting algorithms to open up a whole new world of possibilities. Each of the two main types: Grain Table and Formant Table are presented in both Simple and Complex formats. In each case, the Simple mode offers fewer parameters, and a higher polyphony than Complex, with the values of parameters common to each mode remaining constant.
It’s important to note that the characteristics of the Grain Table and Formant Table oscillators are quite different to those of traditional “granular” sampling/synthesis techniques, which tend to be associated with other-worldly “clouds” of sound. In the Virus TI, we have instead employed the technology to achieve a very musical result which should prove every bit as useful as the other oscillator types in all manner of musical projects."
Discuss. :tongue3 |

Where did you read that? Haven't seen that anywhere, the announcement on that website with all the old info if you click the link + some members on the ti forum seem to find some differences with the other pdf files.. |

I expect the little birdie to chirp louder in the next few days :) |

| I do hope so, if not they should beat up the guy who makes up stuff like this :D. |

| sweet, awesome news. Hopefully we do indeed get a Namm 2007 announcement on this. |

| ok, access is really running the OS 2.0 at NAMM but it's not yet sure when it will be released.. |

| Someone slapped a photo up over at infekted org of a Virus running OS2.0 |

Seems they know more than access themselves.. as it was posted yesterday and nothing is on the website yet :)
Maybe they are waiting till tomorrow to spare their server load. |
