Access have received my project files and have confirmed/replicated the crashing at their end after many emails. They still don't know whats happening as far as i can see but they have been quick to respond to my emails. I really hope they are working on a fix as now i have gone back to using midi and no VC, as its been driving me crazy for months now.

However I do appreciate its a free update and also that they are on the case with all these various issues ive read on this forum.... so yes, well done and thanks access for your ongoing support.. but for me unfortunately VC is still way to unstable to use on a daily basis.

Its still though, by far in my opinion, the best sounding VA synth on the market... real shame about all the VC functionality issues though - id happily pay for an update if only it worked!

I am looking forward though to the imminent new patches as mentioned on twitter!

My two pence worth

In my experience - 90% of the instability people experience is down to some sort of conflict with their computer and the programs/software that they run. I have never had any major problems on my dedicated Carrilon or Synergy Audio PC's. But as soon as I tried VC with an older Dell machine....it was hell.

I think Access do a great job - they certainly dont rest on their lurrels.....but its a fact of life...that for some....VC may never be stable - and in order to fix it for those people....they may introduce problems for those who enjoyed stability. Thats the double edged sword of software programming. True, Access decided to go down the software integration route.....but we should give them credit for having the balls to do it. One day, these little setbacks will be consigned to history.

I'd give Access 10/10 for innovation, 10/10 for a quality product (build and sound) and 8.5/10 for execution. Nearly perfect.

My opinion of course.
