synthman I would say you're jacking my thread with your "anti VC" talk!
I don't experience any bugs and as a said I really love the Virus Control. It is a great Virus editor already with it's beautiful GUI so please don't continue on the anti VC talk in this thread.
No offense meant.

Atziluth I understand and I may send Access a request. I just wanted to make it clear that I think I'm right about this. And again -it's no real problem :)

the developer teams for virus control/OS integration and the sound engineers are independent. even if we would stop all this "nonsense" (which brought us a couple of awards, good press and eventually some happy users as well), the development of new synthesis functions wouldn't benefit from it. i can understand your notion for a lighter product but in this case there would be no benefit.

The end results appear to be the same as many can attest to per the latest OS release. These issues have been fairly constant for years and will continue as long as TI is supported and modified to incorporate more software compatibility. Why wouldnt it based on past history?

I want me a Virus D!

Its hard enough to develop a rock solid software/hardware hybrid synth with the level of complexity of the Virus let try to make one operate in every possible music software application on the planet and systems via USB network.

This is an important topic and definitely a discussion that should continue elsewhere if not here in this thread.

I'm not sure how this doesnt relate topically to the initial post, but ok, I'll let you get back to your specifics in this tread by request. If anyone would like to comment on anything I've posted about TI, please start a post and I'll be happy to discuss there.

Hey that's cool synthman1 thanks. I do think it's a different topic since I basically really dig the VC idea.

Changing the topic slightly myself:

Hey Marc can you tell me if there are any plans of being able to use the arp steps as a modulation source?

BTW I'm a totally happy customer :grin: I really love this synth and it's capabillities so keep up the good work!

It's exactly that complexity which makes pure front panel editing no longer an option for many users, myself included. More features, as you yourself request, would only make this reality more so.

And besides, as Marc also says, the entire business model and brand is now predicated upon the Ti concept: turning back is simply not an option.

if you want a "virus d" - don't use total integration :) - it is an option to those who like to integrate their virus into a DAW environment. if you believe that things would be different without total integration, nobody will ever know unless you can travel in a parallel time. but seriously, i think i have a pretty good knowledge of how things work together and all i can tell you is what i know and how the people feel who developed it all.
