Hi & Welcome to our forum
Are you an exisiting member of the unofficial TI forum? I know its down at the moment. Weve had quite a few people come from there and post here too...
I hear what your saying....and I cant fundementally disagree with you as i've never laid hands on a TI. I think a little bit of perspective is needed when viewing the current situation. Forget the TI aspect for one second.....the TI as it stands right now is indeed a very nice, comprehensive hardware synthesizer. As far as I understand....if used in a standalone form it works just aswell as previous versions (a, b, c). Of course there are going to be some glitches here and there.....its software after all. Problems seem to be arising when people have USB hooked up or Midi and USB hooked up at the same time. At this stage I guess its hard to tell whether its in fact a TI problem or a glitch in someones DAW setup. Contrary to conspiracy theories I think its highly unlikely Access would have released a synth they knew wouldnt be working for most people. I think its more likely that their beta testers gave the thumbs up (legitimately) without appreciating just how much of an impact peoples configurations can have on the functionality of the TI. That is an unfortunate situation....and has led people to rant and rant.....but very few people are stopping to think 'whats happening here'
I think the TI aspect will be implemented as far as possible and bug free with time. Its frustrating....I can appreciate that. But i think its wrong to go on about illegal marketing and this and that.....people are treading thin ice.....u want to get done for slander? The TI DOES DO WHAT IT SAYS ON THE TIN......for a small few who so happen to have an aggreable configuration....but for alot of others....it doesnt. The fact reamins....the TI aspect does work.....but in order for everyone to enjoy it....more work needs to be done. Its as simple as that.
So on the one hand...I too can totally empathise with peoples concerns, frustrations and worries. But I do feel that the ranting of the past week is serving absolutely no purpose at all......cartharcasism does not work btw.
