The Virtuoso Versatile mount is using the same "Interface & protocol" as the Skywatcher multifunction and the Skywatcher AllViev mount ! So No problems wit Papywizard, Chronomotion or PanoramaAPP !!!
The only problem could be "potentiel allignment of the camera to the NPP" witch can give problems for spherical panorama's ... This is due to the Virtuoso construction ... I have not yet really be able to check this last problem....

looking at the Image showing the Virtuoso from back side with the cam mounted it seems for me nearly inpossible to set any near correct NPP even with an mobile phone using Portrait mode... (I assume the screw on bottom is the Center)
and it seems to be a device for tables etc. I could not verify that you can Mount it on a tripod...

Note: If you wish, you may attach the base of the Virtuoso to a photographic tripod. Simply use the threaded 3/8†hole in the center on the underside of the base plate.
This is not excluded that it could be possible to dismantle the base from the vertical part to gain the space to align the NPP ... This is only a supposition ... Actually, I have never had the Virtuoso mount in my hands ...
