Hey guys,
My latest update went very smoothly, but still to this day the arps drift, and midi notes are playing 1/32 note late. i'm using my TI inside Logic studio 8 as a plugin, the rest of my studio runs flawlessy, all external MIDI gear sync's perfectly all plugins the same, the TI doesn't seem too have much latency at all when i'm playing it, barely noticable, but when played back or quantized or when notes are drawn in on exact positions it is totally off, i've proved this by copying patterns from other MIDI instruments or AU's over to the Virus track(s) and the whole song now sounds like a bad DJ mix, and thats just with one Virus track, when i have about 6 it's unbearable!
How can i fix this? i do notice one thing which may have nothing to do with anything but i'll ask anyway, if i turn on the virus while my audio interface ( TC Konnect 48 ) is on, the VIRUS' screen show's 'Audio clock changed' for a brief second, now if the Interface is off the Virus screen doesn't show that. May not even be related, but maybe there's a clock setting in the Virus that i don't know about?
Basically i don't understand why i should have to tweak a perfectly working studio that consists of alot of Midi gear, (RADIAS, MS2000,JUNO 106, BassStation , K station etc. and even non MIDI gear like JUNO 60 ,SH101, MC202 etc), all these sync or lock to the same clock yet the most awesome sounding one of the lot, the $3000 Access Virus TI throws a wrench in the works and has my stumped. oh and btw, after these last 2 updates the virus control plugin takes over 2 minutes to load, and then wants to 'initialize TI and sync patches', for another 2 1/2 minutes!! i really can't be expected to wait over 5 minutes every time i want to use this thing surely?
Sorry to rant but i work 6 days a week 1-12 hours a day so my time in the studio is very limited, i need to make the most of it while i can, but this is not very productive to say the least.
Is anyone here using a similar setup that wouldn't mind sharing how they have everything setup in LOGIC?
MAC PRO 2 x 2.8 Quad core Intel Xeon 6GB ram
OSX 10.5.4
Logic 8.02
TC Konnect 48
Motu midi Express 128
Virus TI Polar v.2.7.3

Let me know if you need any more info, i would be eternally greatful if anyone could help me find a solution to this. Thanks alot CB
