If you'd read my post you'd see that I said it updated fine using my laptop and promtly crashed 5 minutes later. It has nothing to do with it being a beta release, it's the exact same crash I've been getting since I bought my TI like I said already. I don't see how you don't understand this. Just because your unit is working fine doesn't mean everyone else's is. I also don't see why you're getting butthurt from me saying it's ridiculous that something I paid $2000 for doesn't work unless it's complete blind fanboyism which I wouldn't put past you.

Oh and I did a system restore to before the last windows update and got it to install on my desktop too so something went wonky when XP updated last time, and it still crashes so that had nothing to do with it. Nice try though.

Sonis - I feel your pain....

But have you ever asked yourself.....maybe its your computer that is the problem? For alot of people (myself included) I've never really had the 'problems' or 'issues' that some people seem to rant about. I have a dedicated audio pc which was customed built by digital village. There is no unnecesary programs on my machine...and its been tweaked (both bios and windows) for optimum audio performance. I just feel that maybe there is a conflict in your connections or computer software that is running in the background.

Practically all software has bugs...and a combination of these bugs might result in strange behaviour in your sequencer or virus?

Access contacted the people I ordered it from and they're sending me a new unit today! Before I even sent the one I currently have back which actually really surprises me, but whatever it means I get a working virus faster so yay!

Read the thread lol, it crashes when it's not even plugged in to the computer, dunno how many times I've said that.

Update to 3.0.4 no more BSD. Problem solved.

Tried again and it's worked updated to 3.0.4. Had a nasty Win32/Rootkit.Agent.ODG trojan in my system (teach me to surf on the DAW)...installed itself as a driver and kept renaming itself. Took a little while to remove but no real issue. Appears it tries to interrupt with any ports when communicating ethernet/usb and the like hence the system crsahing.

RESULT, SONIS! \(^_^)/ YAY, indeed!

My TI2 Polar is pretty reliable; I can be in the middle of updating the bugger to the latest beta, so I'll go and put the kettle on, and sure enough, the MAC will go into standby, and as soon as I wake it up, the TI2 continues to accept the firmware upgrade! I always worry it'll corrupt the little sod, but it never does! Same thing happened with OS 3.0.4. Made myself a cuppa, had to wake the MAC up (must reconfigure the power settings! LOL) and it just went about its business.

It's not all good, though. I've had to wipe its nose after a sneeze on occasion.

LOL, wipe its nose, sneezing! Our Viruses all have H1N1! (@_@)

Actually, I don't own a Ti but a Kc
Since I'm considering upgrading to Ti, I've been reading most of the TI related threads with interest.


Something is bugging me, a fact that everyone seem to be missing :

Why the very same hardware configuration can lead to so many different buggy behaviors ?
Why after a hard reset, same machines, with same OS, have different stability issues ?
Why some of you cannot even upgrade the machine ?
Do viruses have life of their own ?

I mean, viruses are more or less computer with analogs and digital outputs. So far, I have never seen computers fitted with the same hardware components and OS acting differently after a clean install.

Some of you seem to be lucky with their virus while other can't even consider doing music with it, that's odd.
I think you should stop blaming your computer, USB cable, midi player or whatever, and ask yourself :

Is there any chance that, Virus stability issues are internal hardware related ?
(and yes the OS is probably buggy too, but not that buggy)

From my experience with computer and VAs, I know there are different qualities of hardware components (especially RAM chip), I'm also pointing this direction because my virus Kc had stability issues which were solved by sending it back to germany and having a faulty chip replaced.

just my 2 cents

I think the challenge here is to make Access admit that it's a hardware problem. Until they come into terms with this reality if ever this is really the case then TI2 owners like myself is destined to suffer.The problem is Access support keeps on insisting that the problem we face isn't hardware related but the problem with this claim is that if this isn't really HW related but the OS, then ALL TI2 sold will have the same problem. This is something that cannot be answered as there are only a handful of people having such a complain and I am sure there are more than 100 units sold worldwide.

Come on Access, give us the real score!

So guys, how to fix Decay->Release knobs issue?
