True, but it just isn't measuring up to some of the top VAs on the market just yet. Although who knows if they keep adding cool stuff. It may get there. The V-synth for me is the waveform mangling.

The arp is also kick ass and can be used to modulate sound params like filter cutoff and res etc, something that even the new arp on the TI can't do. Once you have created your VA patch it is then a cinch to resample and get seriously weird with the VariOS section.
The arp on the V-synth is seriously amazing. I have read alot about that infact (still want to own one so I can try it out though). Having the arp to trigger one note in each keyboard split, but having a different filter on each split, so you get a rythmical filter changing. Cool, cool stuff. The arp is amazing for sure - just wish it transmitted out as normal midi controller data, so you could control the filters and the like on the other synths in the studio.

However, I will still be getting a TI mainly for the Total Integration aspect. I recently sold my Virusb to fund it and I'm now having a great time exploring the VA section of the V-Synth.
There is also a rumour that OS2 for the VSynth will have streaming USB audio ... whatever that means (I doubt it will be anything like TI).
I'm not sure if that works on the V-synth actually, it may be an XT only thing. Not enough has been written about it yet (that I could find anyways)

Fuck I really wanna a V-synth. Serious GAS, but no money to burn.....
