The Access Virus B is a classic synth from the late ’90s and early 2000s that compared to its predecessor, the Virus A, adds a third oscillator, more polyphony, and effects. From its panel, you have access to many of Omnisphere’s Wavetables, Dual-filter architecture, LFOs, and FX. The layout allows you to get a wide variety of sounds, so producers of all genres will find it useful. The desktop versions can be easily found on the used market at great prices.
