DO you guys plan to be still using the Virus in 20 yrs time? If you are...it might help you to think about stockpiling some parts. For alot of digital synths the 15-20 yr mark is when components start to go weird/fail.
Ive experienced frustration with old analogs. I would DO ANYTHING to replace the pots of the Pro-One with new old stock. Same goes for Prophet 5. I would DO ANYTHING to replace the buttons and sliders on the Jupiter 8. No one has enough spares!
When I buy the Virus TI...im going to look into buying an additional PCD, set of buttons, knobs and LCD. The keyboard itself is fine...will last for ever. Believe you me...this forward thinking will save you pain in years to come.
Hehe DS

The SynthWizard has some advice - Back in the 1980's music was better, TV was better, films were better. Not to mention fashion.... Let me help you relive the past with some classic 80's sounds from my vintage synth collection....
