:cry: i have unplugged the virus t.i from the rest of my system due to never ending bugs in the v.c softwsre 1.09...i have decided to make my own patches until 1.1 is released,however even as a stand alone unit with just my head phones plugged in the back im hearing clicks and pops but only when applying delay,reverb or arp's to my patches and funny enough this is all happening when i choose the hypersaw mode as my oscillators.
does anyone else have these problems,i dont know whether the machine is faulty or its the software.i have only had the virus 10 days.
cheers any advice most welcome

Pops and clicks are the most common bug, depending on the patch, e.g. yesterday I was playing with Atx bass patch and without tweaking it, loud clicks appeared so I switched back and forth to the same patch and ok ,no problem. I still cannot find a way to reproduce them.

Hello,
You're not the only one with this problems :roll: !
Sometimes, I have the exactly same problems with clicking in standalone mode. Most of the time it's when I apply the cutoff filter, then I hear some clicks, wich go even through the effect section, e.g. if I play a note and turn the cutoff knob, it causes a click that can be heard with delay and reverb.
I suppose that means that the TIOS is still quite buggy, and the hardware itself isn't the problem.

1.1, where are thou?? :?

With identical Os and hardware and in standalone mode (no usb) some people are having no hassle and some are not . . . . . what does this mean ? If you want a laugh checkout Access response to all the bad press on the general posts

'I LOVE MY TI ' message

mailed by someone working for them no doubt or affiliated . . . such a poor attempt to balance up bad press by a company who seem uable to admit thye have sent out dodgy hardware or so gear to people knowing that it doesnt work . . . . why are So many people having problems and yet people continue to make out its user error or something ? Really weird . . . . i am not paranoid but i think they have people on this forum working for them and that they are covering up something . . . . persoanlly i dont think the chips are powerfull enough to hadnle complex multi's and the crashes and noises are due to this sometimes and that THE main problem is that they pushed it To far . . . . somethings not right . . . . ACCESS MUST have tried and found some of these Bugs by now >????????why cant they simply mail and dsay to people - these issues are real on some systems . . .. ???instead they make out its all fine . ..

Are you guys sending midi clock to the TI when using it in standalone mode by any chance? Are there any certain patches that exhibit the pops more than others?

what you going on about mate? a synth of this price shouldnt have pops and clicks at any stage, i meant i unplugged the usb and midi totally from the p.c while just sticking a pair of head phones in the back of the virus,as soon as i started applying fx the damn thing pops more than fucking popcorn in a microwave ffs...
Ben Crossland was using 1.1 at Namm and thats why i bought the damn thing in the first place only to get home and find my software was missing a couple of features,i mean you would have thought the guy in the shop would have told me the thing wasnt right wouldnt you...
another ?1499 in accesses sky rocket (pocket for all you none englishmen here) lol.
Access are AVIN A LARF if they think their palming me off with a machine that just dont cut it....
P.S
When Ben Crosland demonstrated 1.1 at Namm why could they just post that version on their site for us to get on with?
Day by Day this fiasco goes on so comon ACCESS REDEEM yourselves this is bad customer service i mean just let us know whennnnnnnnnnnn 1.1 is coming...
Im 35 now i dont wanna be an old cunt by the time i get my virus working...
Cheers all and sorry for the rant im pissed of with this thing thats all..hope access prove me wrong and release 1.1 that actually works... :lol: and your right mate i think people here are looking out for access interests too..you can tell by their posts...and the BROWN TONGUE :lol:
Cheers Robbie uk

The version Ben had at Namm was NOT 1.1, it was a prerelease beta to show off some of the new features. That OS was not working fully, so posting it for others to use would have led to even more complaints.

Why do people keep wanting Access to post an unfinished OS they know has bugs still? Just to say you got 1.1?

I've tested 1.1 beta 3 by mistake, and I have to say that it was far more buggy than the 1.0.9 I'm using now. Last week I had a conversation with my access dealer and he suggested me to re-install 1.0.9 firmware. I don't see any point doing this though. Has anybody seen any differences?

I have the exact same problem. Even runnig as standalone. Sometimes, I think Aceess is using us to test their product.

There are a lot of bugs with TI firmware. How come company like Access releases these OS s and firmwares without properly testing and letting their customers down! I spend more than a week to get these clicks and dist.. resolved.. I tested 1.0.9 on two seperate units (incase one of them had issues) and have exact same problem. I think Access rushed TI to market witout testing it and developing it propertly.

Yes, you've got the hardware but the firmware is being developped and testes (by us) as we speak.
I ve been in touch with Access team and I think they are not being honest. I am not blaming the support team they are doing their best to help me (us). It is the marketing and sales guys who puts us in this shit!.....All they care about is $$$ and quick $$$. Release now and test it later...

I hope they change their atttiues..

Because Access sold it as a fully working product perhaps. :D

I still don't see how a known buggy OS is going to help you then?

Because even if there has been some progress, having the new OS would create relief.

Nothing worse than wondering "Why is it taking so long?! Maybe they can't fix it at all?! No news at all may mean no progress at all".

Human nature I'm affraid....

Hasn't it been almost 18 months since the release? The web site still mentions nothing about the problems and still claims the TI has features which aren't avaible as yet.

If I had a TI I would love to see if the past 2 months has shown any imporvements to the OS.

New OS, New OS, New OS, New OS!!!! :D

My TI is running pretty much flawlessly since 1.09.

One thing I picked up early on with some of the pop/click problems is how the patches are created themselves.

An example is patch RAM B/15 ButterflyMS - lovely little pad patch.

If you bring the filter down and play a lot of notes in very quick succesion, sometimes you will get some pops/clicks (even worse if you wack the unison right up.)

Now go into the matrix and find slot 5. Turn OFF keyfollower and try the same again. You shouldnt have any pops or clicks. Its actually the chorus mix setting causing the problem in slot 5. When you press a key it turns the chorus amount right down instantly which is causing the pops/clicks.

There are several patches like this which produce the same problem, not all related to chorus, some will be with other settings, but all set up in a similar way.

I dont know if this is affecting people in the same way as it did me but its worth mentioning.

Obviously though its still and bug and hopefully Access address it so instant on/off of settings doesnt cause this any longer.

I agree with the Geezer from Reading on that one :wink:

Me being in the middle of me 6th soundset have come across all sorts of pops and clicks only due to the sounds i am making, in other words tweeking some stuff just sounds totally bollocks :lol: i've come across so many sounds its starting to crack me up :lol: some of the stuff you can get the Ti to do...If anyone has played around with me sets will have heard police sirens,Alarm sirens and even a Drill sound... "Which was nice" :D
Sometimes you start with a mega sound and it ends up CRAP..Thats why i always save it now and then to a new patch destination (VC)
I love my Ti (And i work in a German Brewery and not for Access)

I was thinking it would be nice if you could blitz a whole bank with init patches, and then have shift+store just save patch with current name etc in same the same bank, but over next available init patch with no messing around.

I thought were one and the same :wink:
