True. But what I meant was digital modular synths that are capable of saving the patches for live performance, pretty much like Clavia has done with the Modular G1 and G2...

I think Native Instrument's Reaktor is the thing that comes closest to it, even though it's somewhat more challenging and has an even bigger learning curve, that one... But I think a new product on those lines would probably be successful and allow for the implementation of more features with updates, having sound design as its main focus... And perhaps performance features on the other side of it, to really add something cool to the equation. Digital creation of modular digital synths that would play live on hardware, I mean. For access to jump into the analogue modular world, would take a complete redefinition of their identity since there's never been anything analogue by Access and I doubt that they're thinking about making one. I think it's pretty much like Timo has said, their main focus as been on the TI for far to long, it's natural that it was, because they're still the only company implementing their hardware synth on the daw, which is a really distinct feature. No matter how much it takes to get it working properly, it's worthy of the investment, I think. And it's still called taking risks on my dictionary. There's a reason other developers haven't even tried it yet... But I think the concept behind the integration can be expanded with more hardware, pretty much in the same way that Universal Audio is making: there's the DSP power on the cards, but it serves many features, not just one... And I always thought this modular approach could be a good test for new features, while becoming the dream of really nerdy sound designers like myself. So that would be lovely and somehow within the scope of what I think Access's development is: which is designing really killer modules in code, for dsp use. Maybe it doesn't have to go all into the virus, there could be another parallel approach to that. But that's my opinion. A plug-in would also hit big, even though I agree they should keep the virus's code where it is, not taking risks of seeing it spread across the web with pirate copies. But something else, along the lines of waldorf's Largo, which isn't a Blofeld, but has some of it's features would be cool and provide them with some income for other stuff, I think.
