Ableton Live/Access Virus Powercore vs. Korg Triton Le
 

Hi all,
Cyberdude here with a burning question.
Please be objective.
How does Ableton Live/Access Virus Powercore compare to the Korg Triton Le?

I own a Korg Triton Le and Ableton Live and am intrigued by the possibility of adding the Access Virus Powercore.

Quite honestly, since my keyboard chops are rather limited I'm leaning towards the Ableton Live/Access Virus Powercore combo.

I feel I do have a good ear for music composition (at least I know what I like).

But, I'm hearing complaints about Access Virus Powercore being buggy.
Someone come clean and tell me the truth.
And yes, I can handle the truth.

Thank-you in advance.

Synth vs. Workstation
 

Apparently with operating system OS 2.0 some of these bugs were fixed. Access Musics history of updating their keyboards make the virus a promising investment... what is the Virus KC up to? OS 6.8 now?

Also, when I told a friend about my upcoming Virus TI purchase (2.17.07) he asked "...is it better than your Open Labs NeKo". But that's an extreme case of apples and oranges, just like a Korg Triton and a Virus. Its like asking whats better a School Bus or a Ferrari. The Korg Triton is a workstation and the Virus is a Synthesizer. Its definitely one good way to update your sound beyond the midi feel of the Triton presets, or Roland Fantom x in my case.

Good Luck,
Dan

i'm only speaking for myself here ...I can tell you from my experience with the virus powercore that its very buggy and not worth the money. I sold it along with my tc powercore mkII couple months after use.

My bad your talking software only... just ignore me I'm obviously a newb.


Take Care,
Dan
