How to download additional sounds and patches
We host a stunning number of free patches from well known sound designers including Richard Devine, Howard Scarr, Charlie May, Matt Picone, and Ben Crosland. At the time of writing, there are just about 7000 patches available. Virus TI series users will notice that many patches are already included with the 26 ROM banks of their synthesizers. Many patches are compatible with discontinued Viruses, so if you own and older model, it's worth to give even newer patch banks a try.

About public beta versions:
What is a public beta version?
We would like to take the opportunity to start an open dialog with you in order to refine this product even further. This public beta version has been thoroughly tested by a team of beta testers. Nevertheless we believe that there is always room for improvement and at this point your input is requested.
Should I use this public beta within a production or wait for a final release?
If nothing is broke it is probably a good idea to stick with the version you already have installed on your system. On the other hand, this public beta version contains refinements and bug fixes and therefore will eventually resolve issues you have with the current release version.
When will there be a final release version?
We intend to release a final version as soon as it may be proven by your feedback that no significant new bugs have been introduced. In any case we will start to release updates on a frequent basis again in order to provide faster response to reported issues and deliver enhanced functionality.
