How easy is it to switch patterns, TI desktop

[relapse808]

I just purchased a TI desktop off ebay. This is my virus Access synth. I am also buying an Engine Sequencer to go with it since I dont like using computers. How easy is it to send change control messages to the virus and does it have any audio artifacting when changing patches?

Thanks,

Lee

Its very easy (send a program change event on the proper channel) and does not produce artifacts (as long as you don't expect unreasonable fast switching and endless fx spillover).
