Yeah I’ve always thought of the Blofeld as the poor mans virus unfortunately.
I’ve had every virus since the A and it is the only synth that has stayed in my studio since day one. I have updated each time and have had a TI2 now for quite some time. Waiting for TI3 is like waiting for OT2
A little off topic I know, you may already have one, or you may not even like the virus sound as many don’t it seems, but it is the only digital synth I would with no doubt personally recommend 100% (oh as well as the Nord modular ).
The virus snow is identical only 4 part multi with slightly less voices but still an absolute beast. They can be had pretty cheap now second hand and imo sounds much better with a much better interface than the Blofeld (I use the TI plugin also and is works really well).
Anyway may not be interested but thought I would throw this out there as well.
