Hi
I've been reading this forum for almost a year,exactly when I started to get interested in buying a Virus.

Finally I bought a Virus Indigo 4 months ago. I'm still in the process of implementing it into my way of composing, since I've been a 100% software-based musician for the 2 years I've been making music.

I got interested in the Virus since I knew that some of my favourite bands used it. (Haujobb, Project Pitchfork, Skinny Puppy...).

I'd like to buy a TI in the near future since that Integration with software is something that would be perfect for my way of composing. However, I'd like it to have more stereo channels via USB.

some additional info about me: I'm from Spain, I like industrial/EBM music among others, and Origami is my humble music project, you can listen to some material here: http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=218341

Have a nice stay!
I totally understand you since I'm much more of a software based guy...
I bought the KC a few years ago, sold it last year and I should receive my polar in a few days...Hopefully will make the integration in my projects easier! But like you said, not many stereo channels over usb!

[Origami]

yeah Madstation, that's the thing. I know many musicians here are used to work with hardware synths but I'm not; I started 2 years ago and I've only used software to make my music. Therefore, being used to that way of composing, using a hardware synth like my Virus Indigo is, well, not terribly unconfortable, but a bit more than I'm used to with my VST synths and all that. BUT I like a physical synth, tweaking its knobs with my hands and not with a mouse, and so on. That's why Virus TI is *exactly* what I was looking for. I couldn't wait so i bought my indigo. But if VirusControl and the Total Integration feature works as they are expected to, I'll definitely sell my Indigo and buy a TI (a Polar, it was love at first sight).

and after this eternally boring speech, thanks for your welcome.
