Virus for PowerCore!
Based on Access Music's award-winning Virus Indigo hardware synthesizer, Virus | PowerCore offers sixteen voices with three main oscillators, two filters, three LFOs and two envelopes for every voice.

Virus | PowerCore is equipped with an extensive series of oscillators, LFOs, independent multimode filters and fast envelopes.

The FX section features chorus/flanger, phaser, saturation, distortion, analog boost and ring modulation. In addition, the global reverb/delay and the predelay time can be synched to the song's tempo.

A global vocoder with up to 32 bands, and the built-in arpeggiator add to the virtual synth's feature set. Adaptive Control Smoothing allows super smooth parameter rides without any unwanted side effects, and an extensive modulation matrix makes it possible to create the most stunning sounds.

Virus | PowerCore can be used as a VST instrument for Windows or Mac, as well as an Audio Unit plug-in under Mac OSX. The actual synth engine is powered by PowerCore, saving the host's CPU for other tasks.

The sophisticated patch management gives you control over thousands of patches organised in automatically created hierarchical menus. The file format is the same Standard MIDI file used by the hardware synthesizers, and more than 4000 pre-programmed sounds are accessible from Access Music's web site.

The Base License enables one plug-in instance utilizing one DSP, and this will give you a 4-part multitimbral, 16-voice synthesizer.


TC Electronic Virus | Powercore Features:
  • 3 Oscillators / 2 Filters / 3 LFOs per Voice
  • Ultra Fast Envelopes
  • Massive Modulation Matrix
  • Up to 5 effect processors per instance
  • Built-in Vocoder
  • Extensive Arpeggiator
  • Patch compatible with Virus hardware synths


Customer Reviews
Buggy (but sounds authentic=great)  
by David Johnson , August 01, 2004

“Still somewhat buggy, especially with Emagic Logic. You can't route the 4 parts to different outputs, which severely limits your FX possibilities (especially considering theres only a single global delay/reverb effect that covers all 4 parts). The patch system would be very nice if it actually allowed me to save patches (whenever I try to save a patch, it corrupts the bank i'm trying to...” Read More

Sweetwater Expert Advice
 
  "$399 for a Virus. You would be out of your mind not to buy this if you are a PowerCore owner. This is the real deal! If you don't have $3000 for a Virus you must get this. Rave, house, trance, EBM, industrial, and hardstyle all owe their advancement to the Virus and what better and cheaper way to add it to your rig than this?"
Carson McClain

  "Looking for THE ultimate synth for your computer audio rig? The Virus PowerCore is IT! Used in conjunction with TC's PowerCore, it offers you 4 individual parts of the meatiest, lushest, most inspiring 'analog' synth sounds you can get on a computer, and the PowerCore frees up your precious CPU processing horsepower, allowing you to do more with your music. With the option to expand to up to 16 voices, this is all you need for a veritable synth orchestra. I use it for sound design, dance music, film sound, rock and roll - everything!"
Nate Edwards
