Hey guys,
I finally went to my local guitar center and put a down payment on a Virus kc after saving money for over a year. In the past week I have read a ton of negitive reviews on the synth. Sounds like just about everyone who has one has had some problems with it. When I pick up the KC next week what are some things I should look for to insure the one I purchaced is problem free and operating properly. I have very little patience when it comes to faulty gear that costs over 1400$ so I wanted to be positive that it's fully functional to avoid any postal activities. Also this will be my first piece of hardware in some time. Reason 3.0 has been my backbone for the past few years and with exception to the sound quality i've been quite happy. But, i'm venturing out to discover a deeper and darker sound and I feel the virus strain will accomidate my needs nicely. With this in mind, does any one out there feel the virus is to unreliable to be my new backbone? I don't want to have any problems with the synth. Should I get a differnt synth? Also, what sequencer works best with the virus synths? Logic? Pro Tools? any suggestions would be welcome. I would like something that works well with Reason 3.0, Access, Clavia, and Waldorf. Mac or PC what works best with the virus? Tell me about your problems and praise.
Last question, has any one out there checked out the cosmic dreamer sound set from the access web site, it claimes to be very David lynch like. Thanks in advance. Jonnie
