The Usual Suspects NKS

Thanks - I did include the artwork thumbnails but the rest I made as I wanted to use a different skin (don't like the default one) and I'd already made the correct folders and database files anyway

Thankyou - very sorry I missed that - I only got interested in it after trying the Waldorf and realising it actually worked very well then thought I'd try the Virus and was blown away by how great it is (and I have a Virus Ti but wasn't using it as much as the software side of it is unsupported on M1 Macs so was missing it). Yes Mercury and I are a lot further on now anyway - all presets are converted for banks A-H (with the first 2 being the RAM banks from the Virus site NOT the duplicated banks AB that come with the Osiris) and I am 2/3 through hand tagging by ear (which is taking the longest because I can't really go by the categories given in the patch as too many are inconsistent or don't have them) - all also have previews. Should be finished later today or tomorrow.

After that I'll come back to the Waldorf - they just released a new beta and preset loading seems a bit faster and it's less glitchy. Also I have a major update coming for the Noise Engineering Suite.

btw thanks for the skin - at the moment I'm using Galaxspel as it was the less bad of the 3 that come with it but your's has more of the original Virus B look - cheers (also found so more on the Discord now that look more Virus C like)

Do you know why none of the skins have the 2 soft knobs? Is that just not supported yet? You can see where they are assigned but the knobs should be under the main LCD (in the Virus C, B didn't have them)

OSIRUS

(Access Virus Emulation)

Here is the NKS conversion for Osirus, the Virus B/C plugin from The Other Guys, that myself and Mercury have been working on the last few days:

This is not an emulation of the synth, they actually emulated the chip the synth runs on, so you can then load the original software, which means this is basically identical to the Virus (except when you run it on your computer you can do things like increase the sample rate). This emulation runs the Virus B and C but they are working on one for the Ti too and also other synths (including Vavra which I posted earlier which is the Waldorf MicroQ)

To make this work first you need to download the plugin from the above site. For KK/Mas you need the VST3 - the NKS was made with the VST3.

Then you need to download the Virus software - it is available on the Access site but that is only open to Virus owners, however there is a repository of synth EPROM here:

We used the final version of the Access Virus C Access Virus C (am29f040b_6v6).zip

Make a subfolder in your VST3 plugin folder called Osirus - Unzip this and place the ROM in this folder alongside the VST3 plugin.

It already comes with banks built in (Banks A-H) but you will notice that the first 2 banks A and B are duplicated in the 3rd and 4th banks. This is because banks C and D are backups of the RAM banks A and B that are the banks Access intend people to overwrite with their own patches in the hardware. However the final version on the Access site also includes 2 new RAM banks that came with the later model so I converted those for banks A and B so you get 2 extra banks with this NKS conversion and no dupe banks and Mercury converted C-H (the ROM banks). This is line with the final Virus C patch list http://www.infekted.org/virus/showthread.php?t=33498. If you want the original Virus patches I uploaded them here:

The NKS includes all patches from banks A-H fully tagged in detail by hand with previews and artwork (a couple of thumbnails originally provided thanks to Diam, which I slightly tweaked to adjust colour) - the rest made based on this skin which you can find in the Discord channel for skins:
