The Virus is very powerful, and it's digital, so why i wanted it to be someone else? Sometimes when mixing synths it's very hard to have a global color chord.

Maybe this can be solved with an analog compressor or another mixing milk...?

Yep, if possible, it's good to have some different sounding synths as there will be a bit more character in mixes. Using tube pre-amps, analog compressors, decent EQ's etc can help really help - worth experimenting a bit if you have the equipment.

If you don't have any of this, a cheap way to make something sound warmer is to record onto VHS tape first. For some nice analog tape saturation, send the signal in hot to the VHS machine!

Old novation synths have tons of knobs.

Other one that has tons of knobs: Arturia Origin and is multitimbral

The origin is full of bug and it's a collection of arturia's synth part and algoritm! I love that sound but I can reproduce all sound whit any good vst! It's not a particular sound as the nord lead or the novation synth, it's more a new era old soundng synth

I can suggest you to read many much synthesis manual and watch a lot of real old analog vst programming, you will learn many new things to take your actual synth to heaven

this! .. I have the keyboard version. same engine as the supernova with improved filters. 4 parts and supersaw functionality... sounds great.

If the ultranova had as many knobs and multitimbrality as his old brothers it could be a real winner.
