Arpeggiator Question - Virus Rack
 

Hi there - I'm thinking of buying an Access Virus Rack - I just have one really important feature that it needs to have, and I'm not sure from the manual if it does...

I need to have an Arpeggiator that can be set to key-sync [at least, that's what it's called on other VAs] - i.e The first 'pulse' of the arpeggio starts when i hit the key.

In some synths, the arpeggiator rate is always running from when you load the patch, which can cause problems if you're trying to play an arpeggio in time with a live band!!

Can the Virus Rack avoid this by being set to key-sync? If not, can any of the Virus series do this?

Thanks

The arpegiator of the Virus always restarts on the first key down and then runs until all keys are off... If you play with a live band you must of course somehow make sure that the rest of the band plays in the same tempo as the Virus clock. Maybe let the drummer play to a click-track...
