access at NAMM show
 

at the news section of the access site is the following:

Taking place in Anaheim, California, the NAMM is the most important music industry tradeshow of the year. Visit us at booth #6900 in hall A and test drive the Virus TI, enjoy our hourly presentation by Ben Crosland and Matt Picone and eventually even have a sneak preview of what your TI will be capable of next ...

January 19-22, 2006. Anaheim Convention Center

------

sounds very exciting, but I'd even be satisfied by the TI the way it is right now if it would be delivered finally... still waiting 8O

have fun ben :D

SWEET!
Looking forward to see what they have in mind for the future updates ;)

Great stuff mate!! But why travel many 1000s of miles in a Boeing 747 when i got one sitting next to me :wink:
So we can't all get over to the US of A so please let the cat out the bag of what the Ti can do next??? :? Used as a VST effects Plugin for Reverb and alike??? :?

Re: access at NAMM show
 

i dun know....The music show in Frankfurt in a couple of months is just as important :lol: Vorsprung durch technik

Re: access at NAMM show
 

alright girlie, I am jealous :wink:

Re: access at NAMM show
 

I suppose there'll be another clip at sonicstate.com like there used to be one as well when access introduced OS v6.5 with the minimoog filter emulation

Re: access at NAMM show
 

That clip with our Ben actually made me buy the Ti..
But i'm still looking for the same sunglasses....No luck :wink:

Re: access at NAMM show
 

Am i barkin' up the right tree :?:

Re: access at NAMM show
 

at NAMM show, the spots must be very bright concluding from his wearing sunglasses ;-)

Re: access at NAMM show
 

Sure he's not just a cool dude 8)

Re: access at NAMM show
 

New filters, maybe? Or, importable and graphically tweakable wavetables? :D

Marc said last year that the Winter Namm show is the biggy. They weren't at Frankfurt last year. (Although they may have been avoiding people intentionally, of course. ;) )

I'd love to see the addition of a compressor/limiter.
I might be dreaming tho ;)

a hypertriangle :P

no, honestly, an improvement of the hypersaw to a hyperoscillator where you can smoothly fade between triangle-saw-square would be great...

Re: access at NAMM show
 

I must admit as we looked around the music show in Frankfurt last year there wasn't a virus in sight...
But there is alot of other great stuff there and alot of switched on cookies who know there stuff,its so big that there is a shuttle bus service to get around... http://musik.messefrankfurt.com/frankfurt/en

Compressor & Limiter
Filter Q Normalise (like Novation KS-Rack - to compensate for level boost with high reso settings)
Side Band & Comb filters while were at it
Uploadable wavetables
Cross patch FM operators for Multi mode
Morph groups (single mode), or cross patch morph for multi mode (not via fade - but via actual patch param morphs)

Actually - to hell with it - while not go the whole way and add an extended multi-mode thats a 'monster modular mode' - combine a bunch of patches with cross patch mod destinations etc, stacking loads of filters, layering loads of oscilators, hijacking loads of lfo, eg and others mod sources and assigning them to whatever - probably need a G2 modular style drag and drop editor for it ;)


OK - so thats all the silly stuff :)



On a more realistic note:

A bunch of options to control the extent of 'Integration' to assist us folks who want better hardware studio integration without having to abandon virus control, even if that only leaves VC as a patch editor, multi-editor, seq-mode editor, librarian, arp editor etc. (ie switch off all audio and ASIO based audio, and switch off using midi ports as computer midi ports, leaving them as virus private ports, as per novation X-Station/Remote boards)

Standalone version of virus control (ie as a .exe or mac equiv) that also will serve as Multi mode editor and Remote editor (when remote gets done). Maybe the standalone version should be yamaha studio connections compatible as well - though I think the Yamaha UIs are ugly as hell, but the concept good.

Remote mode that aint just aimed at remote control of software, but also leaves the MIDI port active (under virus control) so I can fully control my ES Rack as well from the TI keyboard (even while VC is running) - ie as implemented on Novation X-Station/Remote boards.

Semi-tone key transpose via SHIFT+Transpose buttons (keyboard/polar versions only probably, or maybe all according to key/engine setting) - should also work in remote mode as well.

Split Synth + Remote mode - for eg - assign top 2 octaves and all controls except soft knobs, pedals, and pitch/mod to remote, leaving everything else driving the virus engine.


OK - thats probably enough to keep the dev guys busy for a while :)

yes, a combfilter (with feedback!!!) would be so great!!

Re: access at NAMM show
 

... errmmm ... it will work as advertised?

Re: access at NAMM show
 

Sorry for being an asshole! It's just that I sold my Virus b last December to fund a Ti and now that it is finally out I am very discouraged by all the problems listed on this forum.
I hope you get it sorted soon.

Re: access at NAMM show
 

:lol:

Love it!

Re: access at NAMM show
 

What problems??????????????????????

Re: access at NAMM show
 

No....... We are running it (Via USB) with Logic 5.5.1 with a Motu 828 MK2. when the latency is at its lowest on the soundcard there are NO problems................................................................

Re: access at NAMM show
 

You're saying that you use 64 samples buffer (or was the 32 samples the lowest buffer size)? I wonder how much you have cpu left for other tasks. Usually things run smoother if you increase the buffer size and no other vst/au will run worse if you increase the buffer.

I run everything @ 512 samples buffer and many professional studios use the highest possible buffer size (1024 samples usually). It's just the computer- & gear tweakers who use the lowest possible buffer sizes. Finally they realize that there isn't much sense and use the 512 or 1024 anyway when their cpu is at 100%. I know many friends who have gone thru this. If the TI cannot work well with higher buffer settings then there's another bug. Maybe the timing problems cannot be heard when using so small buffer sizes. Just a guess, I haven't purchased the TI yet because people are reporting so many problems with it. And I bet that the rest who report that are running fine with the TI have to do some compromises or are not stressing their systems to the maximum.

Re: access at NAMM show
 

We run mostly on 256 we also have alot running on our Powercore, also the virus Runs on its own DSPs as well (We only use our PC for music so nearly everything is switched off http://www.thegirlnextdoor.de/XPtuning.htm).we only have to put up our buffer samples to 512 when we open Z3t+a or Spectrasonics Plugs because with those plugs we get Asio dropouts at 256 or less.When we but it up to 512 then the Virus ti arpeggiator starts to Lose itself maybe once a day.
If it starts to piss us off we record one or more Parts from Z3t+a and Spectrasonics to Audio then knock the Motu 828 MK2 back down to 256,i must admit if we pump up the soundcard to 1024 the Virus starts going tits up.
But if i would do this(1024) J?rg our keyboard player would rip off my bollocks for the latency when hes playing,so we stick to around 256 :lol:

Re: access at NAMM show
 

Ok, that sounds to be still a reasonable buffer. :)

Re: access at NAMM show
 

Do you get that hardware boot-glitch that has been discussed?

Re: access at NAMM show
 

No...Why what happens ??????

Re: access at NAMM show
 

Yo...Just read about it on the trouble page....
Only ever had it once since i owned the Ti (2 months)
I always switch on the Ti before i fire up my PC(Don't know if that makes a difference ????Does it?) also switch on my Motu 828 and powercore before i start up my PC... :roll: we really don't have any issues with 1.07...But 1.08 is fucking toilet(For those of you that ain't from England toilet is Crap,shit,bollocks,pants)

Re: access at NAMM show
 

Actually I shouldn't have said "hardware" as it may be nothing at all to do with hardware - sorry bout that.

Still though, you really seem like one of the lucky ones there The Girl Next Door.

Anyhow...
Keeping on topic. Namm is around the corner and hopefully Access do have some new goodies. Let's just hope one is a new OS with the latest fixes for you TI owners.

Re: access at NAMM show
 

I think "we" have been away from England too long! :) I've never heard that expression, nor can I visualise anyone having the balls to say it. It sounds kinda, er, crap.

Re: access at NAMM show
 

Hmm... first thing I did when I got it, I instaled 1.08...(was 1.00) Is it possible to change it to 1.07?

Re: access at NAMM show
 

I changed back to 1.07 from 1.08 no problems...Deinstalled the VC/VSTi 1st though

I have been following Winter NAMM 2006 News on Harmony Central, and find it strange that no mention of Access, or the Virus TI so far.

I wonder why ? No Videos on Sonic State of the new TI OS being demonstrated.

Not even any update news on the Access website, so far it is OS 1.08.

I hope we hear some good news from Access, very soon.

In the mailing list, marc said that the access homepage is gonna be updated within 24 hours...

Maybe they're going to cut their losses and announce the TI v2! :lol:

j/k :wink:

I think it'll be TI v1.1 :wink:

That will be the one with monster modular multi mode, user wave tables, 6 op FM etc, cross patch mod and audio routing in multi mode, compressor, limiter and enhancer in the fx section and tape+tube drive modes in the sat/dist options :)

....And a step sequencer. Oh and more filter models. :lol:

Look, its better that Access just get all these little bugs sorted out and dispense with adding new features for a while......they can add all the features they want in the MKII version (the one im getting).....Id just like to extend a warm thankyou to all you current TI owners....with your help the MKII is going to be really sweet.

Just as a side note.....the Midi protocol needs to be changed. I find it a very strange situation that after 20 years, people are still having problems with timings etc etc. People had less obstacles back in 1985 with their Atari 512's.....

I think midi nowadays is overburdened (although technically its not). So few keyboardists play parts in live now.....and i mean properly play parts in live....and its all automated. Well....I just think this is midi getting its own back....

DS :lol:

do you think you are funny now?

about three of four posts of you are about your future virus mk2 or about your dx7mk2 or about the 80ties, it's really annoying
