Based on Access Music's award-winning synthesizer, Virus for PowerCore offers 16 voices with 3 main oscillators, 2 filters, 3 LFOs, and 2 envelopes for every voice. It is also 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 a song's tempo.

A global vocoder with up to 32 bands, and a built-in arpeggiator add to the 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 for 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.

Sophisticated patch management gives you control over thousands of patches organized 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 website.

The Base package offers a licence which enables up to 4 plug-in instances utilising one DSP (16 voices, 4 instances). A multi DSP license can be obtained on top of the Base package which allows the Virus to be instanced on all PowerCore DSPs simultaneously.
