@ trainspotter

yes mate it would be my first virus synth
Yeah, that NI Massive is probably one of the best souding softsynths ive heard. Deffinately sounding closer to a virus that other vst's ive come across before. The filter on it is just lush. As for the TI, im not sure the pricetag warrents a buy at the moment, if you price it up against the C, its only the hyper saw and extra polyphony that really swings the deal, so i would go and demo them somewhere. You have to make sure its something that you need in your setup, because if your already really competant using a softsynth that gets similar results, you will find yourself going back it for quick inspiration and leave the virus gaining dust.
