I know you all think I'm a total asshole. I can understand this perception if you've only ever known me from the recent posts on this forum. I'm generally a good natured person who is considerate and compassionate. It's just that my musical vision, my life dream of creating a body of compelling music to share with others is actually closer to being realized with the help of the Virus TI. It is more inspiring and more capable than any I've used in the past and it's that "Holy Grail" synth, my own cosmic soul-mate of an instrument. Perhaps I'm too emotional about it. I just became very upset when I read the brief interaction below:

It almost seemed as though Marc was nonchalantly dismissing a common problem that a large percentage of frustrated Virus owners have been discussing for a long time now.
I know you've all made your points about personally taking up my own individual issue with Access support. The first thing I do before wasting the valuable time of tech support personnel is to research and fix the problem on my own, if possible. So I researched and found scores of users with hopeless stories about the same timing issues on nearly identical systems, running the same software. They said the problem couldn't be fixed by the recommended procedures. I tried said recommended procedures, couldn't get them to work either. Seems logical to just become discouraged, work around it and not bother the tech support guys at Access who already have enough on their plates. That's what I was doing until word of the TI2 came along. Then I got upset that the development team would just make a new product without trying to "fix" the old one. The lack of included rack ears was also disappointing. Then I read Marc's quote above. Kind of sent me over the edge.
That was my trail of "logic" which lead me to start this thread. I'm sorry if it was a different path than some of you would've chosen. I wasn't intent on creating "bad blood".
