Am I mental for wanting a Ti?

[dmacintyre]

Hi All,

New to the forum (hello) because I am considering purchasing a Ti Keyboard. I was amazed to read so much negative feedback about it. I don't wish to go over old ground but I am having to sell a whole bunch of stuff to buy a Ti (Kore, Sampletank, Firebox, Taylor Big Baby, Albino 3, Amplitube, Philharmonik, YT Independence, amongst others, etc). I want to get my studio down to 1 keyboard (OK 2 keyboards), 1 sound card, 1 sampler, 1 or 2 good hw or sw synths, 1 good pair of monitors, etc. You get the idea.

Anyway, am I going to regret this? I thought the Ti KB looked like the perfect solution to streamline my workflow but there are apparently loads of dissatisfied punters. I need the soundcard part to be 100% working at 44/48 and can tolerate slightly higher latencies to achieve this. I don't mind the odd freeze or hang, etc in the synth as I am studio based. Am I spending money needlessly? I mean I have Blue, Zebra 2 and Reaktor so am I simply doubling-up on synths with the Ti or is the hw improvement really worth it?

Just can't resist the thought of my first hardware synth.

Thanks and regards

David
