Yes, I keep thinking "What could I respend that money on?" but then I know that when it gets here I will want it regardless. Its like having a girlfriend you cant sleep with or touch.

:P

nice try my friend. After Hollowcell got me . . . I'm not falling for anything now :twisted: By the way, how is the Fantom doing?

Hehe, HC has got me a few times too. When the TI really is gonna get released no one will belive it :lol:
The Fantom is great. Really nice sounds (especially the acustic piano and nylon guitars). Still getting to know it (goddanm those manuals are getting bigger and bigger) so i havn?t really been playing much aruond with the sampler yet. If i have to say something bad about it then it must be that it?s goddanm big. It takes up so much space that i have to re-arange my setup some day soon :roll: Another thing is that now my real piano have to be stored away because that was the deal with my wife :cry: I wonder if i can get used to playing piano with synth-action keys :roll:

Man, I actually had a serious dream about getting the Virus TI last night.

It came in two parts; the rack and the keyboard. The rack was like a pre-power amp combination, and it filled the house with awesome tech sounds. Then I plugged the keyboard in and woke up because I was too excited.

This is insane!


Where the **** is it?!

I saw a dream (better say nightmare) 2 years ago. I was playing alesis andromeda in the dream and guess what happened when I woke up... It was just a dream. I didn't have the synth altough in the dream the damn synth was mine! :twisted:

In fact I felt so sad that I actually sold something and went to a music store and bought one. What a great purchase! I have never felt anything like I felt when I powered up my andro for the very first time. It was like a dream. :D

I've been eyeing the andromeda for a while - how do the two synths - andromeda and virus compare?

You know, I went to a store the other day and played with a Andromeda, a MiniMoog Voyager, and an ION, and honestly, the thing that impressed me most was the ION.

I was surprised to say the least....

The A6 just didnt sound that much better than a VA, the MiniMoog Voyager wasnt anything special although it did look damn cool.

The ION, at its relatively low price, ROCKED!

Strange...

You know, a while back my sweetwater rep told me to pick up an ion as a good complement to my virus. I took a look at it online (no places has it on display here) saw the price and thought "it doesn't look too special" - but it just goes to show that you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. So, does it sound distinctly different than the sounds coming out of the virus c?

Is the TI still in development?

Well...I dont know about that. It certainley didnt sound as dark or aggressive as the Virus. These days, alot of the VA's are sounding kinda similar to me. I would say though that it is somewhere between a Nord and a Virus.

I dont know if I would get one though cos the Virus is better IMO (more voices, parts etc)
