I have a small P3-VirusC-ElectribeES1 setup for chilled out minimal gigs. I 
combine it with a small Behringer mixer and a stereo compressor. It all fits 
in a small flightcase and it works great.

No problems at all here with a P3 and Virus Indigo.

nice :-)
but are you using the virus in multimode?
how many channels you can use in virus before going out of polyphony?
Do the patches sound different in multimode because of the limited 
reverb/delay?
Thanks again.

Virus C: perfect!
8 channel. Multimode.

Yes.

It's not a question of how many channels, but more like how busy those 
channels are. If you're sending a lot of chords and use unison patches, 
you will run out of polyphony. I've never had problem so far (and that's 
with a B generation Virus with even less polyphony), but your miles may 
vary.

Of course they do - *if* they rely heavily on those effects. However, I 
found that the Virus doesn't suffer as much as other synths as it's 
really only the delay/reverb effect that is shared, but none of the 
other modulation blocks.

If you're really keen on the full FX section per part, you'll need a 
Virus TI.

I've got a TI hooked up to my P3 and there are definite polyphony issues
at 8 tracks... even when all tracks are mono, only one track is unison,
and only one or two tracks are using delay or reverb. Also there are some
strange midi issues going on with the TI. I'd say stay away from one of
those for awhile until the OS gets fixed.

yeah, i've read on many forums that the TI is still very buggy,
but how you can having polyphony issues with 8 tracks? TI has 80 voices, 
C only 32?
Perhaps the TI is more hungry because of the new oscillator?

yeah, i'm well aware of what it *says* :(

it's just not true though... not unless all 80 voices are single osc saw
waves with no fx. but this is not the place to gripe about the TI so I
will refrain. :)
