mean that this isnt an "effect" like you put in the signal chain... but more of a under the hood tweaking of the fundamental synth engine?

yes it does exactly that, but I kind of can't be bothered using it, and it doesnt say what each one does, even in the demo video Ben Crosland is just like "They can make it emulate the sound of famous analog synths"

well, which ones!?

When will the new hardware be available?? :D

I could see using all the new DSP power. In songs that are mostly TI, I often hit the wall with polyphony.

Here's the catch...

It's that wall that keeps me in check and tells me. "Hey Andrew, chill out..." Then I go.... "Oh yeah... " The world of TI polyphony has made me lavish all my music in sonic possiblity, and pay less attention to all the silence that makes dance music pop. I think the TI has the perfect amount of voices...

I am happy oh so happy with this OS, the TI, and my current state of music mind.

Marc, Just wanted to drop a note to thank you guys for opening up OS 3 to the TI range! I just bought a TI Keyboard recently and I would have hated to have had to trade it in already! Big thumbs up here. I like supporting companies that support their users in return :)

Looking and working very good so far here! Yeah!

Alex

here's a couple of things i'd like to mention: OS3 is available for the entire Ti series including the snow. we could have easy limited it to the new TI but we didn't for a simple reason. it's really old fashion and not beneficial for anybody (including us). so treat it as a gift :)

ps. our entire support team is on the NAMM. please understand that there might be increased turnaround times for the ticket for the next couple of days.

I can't thank you guys enough for not abandoning us early adopters of the Virus Ti lineup. I was actually quite sad when I heard of the Ti2 being released as I only just bought my Ti about 6 months ago now. When I read that the new OS3 was available for the older units too I was very, very surprised and extremely happy to boot. Just reading of the new features made me want the Ti2. Now I get those features without having to worry about shelling out for a whole new unit. In these economic times, not many can do such a thing.

Thanks again and keep up the great work. I look very, very forward to receiving any new updates you guys can offer. Access support really is as good as I heard it was before I even bought my unit.

I wish they would let you reset a knob back to zero by double clicking on it.
in version2 i always find it fiddley in vc moving the knobs small amounts but it seems alot better in version3.

@ Marc , if he reads this.....

Any chance of implementing a shift toggle somewhere ?

Playing while trying to adjust a parameter while holding shift is getting a bit complex :)
