One thing I was thinking about today......

Ok, the Virus TI was originally announced in november 2004......does anyone here think its strange that the manual hasnt been released yet for us to read. I mean....I can understand there being holdups with the programming or whatever.....but if they thought it would be shipping back in 2004 then why hasnt the manual been published at least? Could it be the Ti features are still subject to change? Could it be that the TI is actually far from completion and we dont know the full story. Why oh why cant they put some kinda progress chart on their website indicating roughly how long certain aspects are taking. Ken McBeth spent a good 3.5 years developing the M5...and every step of the way he updated the site....even with trivial information such as 'the pots have now arrived from Japan.....and the metal case work is nearly done'.....atleast snippits of info like this engages potential customers and keep them upto speed with the progress being made. Honestly, as things stand right now....we just have no idea at what stage the TI is at....and if the pst 5 months are anything to go by...how the hell can Access expect us to keep hanging on like this. Put the ball on the other foot will ya...and see it from our perspective.

Public relations are so important to build and maintain....and the fiasco over the TI is really eroding confidence.....

Come on Access.....engage you customer base......it'll be your downfall if you neglect us.

I must agree DS although it seems anything like this falls on deaf ears. Ive lost count how many times ive posted here or to the access list asking what the hold us is or why they choose not to communicate any information whatsoever and I dont even get an aknowledgement, totally ignored each time. Its pathetic really, whatever they hope to acheive by this total blanket of silence is beyond me and quite disrespectful to its customer base, especially people who have paid for this synth 5 months ago.

honestly - why would access give a shit about a few whinging customers when they already have millions of euros in presales?

DS they can't write a manual if a feature hasn't been finnished.

Perhaps I should point out here that Access doesn't actually have any of those 'millions' of Euros - pre-sales are by no means the same thing as sales!
