What are you using as a host Papi? I have never even used Cubase but from what I am told it would tap strongly into my late-80's experience with Atari ST (which had built in MIDI). I can't believe they are pretending to struggle under Windows7 and not allocating enough resources to address real issues there. I've said it before, I had a Ti2 here for a couple of weeks but it sounded nice, better than my softsynths, but all the limitations and bugs added up to much less than I can accomplish with softsynths, some careful EQing and post processing. At least softsynths never interrupted my workflow and with enough work (sometimes lots) I could get them sounding right, while the Virus was always 2 steps behind latency wise.

Windows 7, which has been out for maybe half a year, already supplanted total Mac marketshare and is the fastest growing OS in history. Access can get stuffed if they can't keep up. I can understand why some companies don't give FLS proper attention given it's roots, but the modern version is an amazing DAW that actually encourages (GASP) good music creation. Just because people got all giddie over iPhones means crap in the big scheme of things, Android kicked Apple's ass over the last year so that means everyone's DAW will be owned by Google and be fully Web based in the next 4 years? lol... The technology industry is in a stupidity freefall. Nobody has yet realized that the smartphone market is an easy-to-enter industry.... make something shiny and demo the capabilities on youtube and you have a SALE! Woot... what does that do for business at large? Fuck nothing if you dont understand the bits and bytes that actually keep the starship going.

Cubase 5, but occasionally also Sonar 8.5. For some strange reason, the TI seems to work better in Sonar, unlike pretty much anything else. That's unfortunate because I'd really want to ditch Sonar for good. I really hate the unbelievably arrogant Cakewalk people and how they publicly insulted me on their website after refusing to acknowledge that their software was buggy. They wanted to blame me and my system ("it's not because our software has problems, it's because you're doing something wrong!") and started to call me names when I told them that I didn't accept that because, in fact, their software was actually buggy and I knew what I was doing. Unbelievable how they treat their customers. It's a company that doesn't deserve anyone's support, let alone any money.
