sometimes when im switching between all these betas then listening back to a project its difficult to compare if its exactly the same sound as in the previous version.

they do sometimes!! I am quite weary of trying new updates now because of this. i have some history with the sounds changing. Firstly, I had made some sounds when i first bought the TI, then when i updated, they went all messed up- apparently it was down to the lfo's changing the way they worked or something, but either way i had to adandon these sounds as the only workaround was to go back to the original firmware driver. Then a similar thing happend much later, after updating the virus, and again supposedley it was down to some bug, but now the sound i use in this particular song sounds out of tune. so thats another one i've had to give up on (actually im gunna go back to that one at some point). Recently I tried one of the new beta's and it seemed fine, but then i noticed in one particular song one of the sounds had changed slightley, so i reverted back and it was back to normal.
Oh, then there was the time when some patches for some reason wouldnt save properly in VC, and would load up again with slightly differnt cuttoff or other settings, though this only happend a couple of times and wasn't too major.
And finally!!! today the latest successor, I find that cubase 5, when i save the song, then re-open it, the virus patch sounds different. This is with a song made in SX3, and now that i have upgraded to Cubase 5, I load the song and all sounds as it should, but as soon as i save the song, then re-open it, the virus patch sounds wrong.
So... yeah, be warned! it can happen.
