Its those bass organ “Donks” used in house music is what I’m after. I was able to get close, but if anyone has any pointer's on which wave forms to use that would be awesome. Thank you.
Creating those Bass organ sounds used in House music.

I would start with a triangle wave on Osc 1 and a square on Osc 2 tuned 7 semitones higher. Turn the resonance up a bit so you get some boost without self-oscillating and play with the filter cutoff. Set all your envelope parameters to zero apart from a short decay on the filter and a slightly longer one on the amp.
If your model has envelope 3, set that to a short attack and decay and use it to modulate Osc Noise Vol - that will add a little bit of grit to the start of the sound.
How does that compare with what you've got so far?

No prob. The second post was to supplement the first one, but I edited the first one instead. I couldn't see how to delete the second one, so I edited it to say "ignore"

ahhh gotchya.. and again thank you for the advice, it got me where I wanted to go
much appreciated. Btw this synth is simply amazing. I wish I had bought it sooner. Would have saved me a lot of headaches. Lol -
You're welcome, glad to hear it was helpful. I've only just got my Virus (A) as well - I originally looked at one in 1998 so it's been quite a long wait!
