Why would you need these?

• to directly re-flash an instrument replacement part
• to emulate the Virus B/C via https://dsp56300.wordpress.com

(from user @basskitten@lemmy.world posted here w/permission)

"Still one of the best sounding synthesizers. Not best-sounding analog, digital, software, etc... just best sounding, period.

This track of mine is all Virus except for the drums."

Posted for posterity because this might be the best god-frakking-damn factory demo track a god-frakking-damn awesome piece of gear ever had. And it's hard to find the audio for it.
