Should I buy a Virus C?

[rfinch]

Hi guys,
New to this site but spend a lot of time on the dance music production site. I've been wanting to buy a Virus for nearly a year now and finally have the opportunity to get hold of a Virus KC (can't afford the TI yet). I use Reason at the moment and getting familiar with cubase.

Everytime I tell people I want a Virus they tell me that software gives the same results & I should just get some hot VST's. The thing is I want the hardware with all the realtime knobs plus the keyboard. I've also played the Virus demo to myself and the trance sounds that are on the demo are so awesome & I've never been able to produce the same with software - well not Reason anyway & I think I've made ok tunes (http://www.mp3unsigned.com/showmp3.a...8279&aid=15771 for a peak).

I also played the TI at a music store and it was awesome. I don't want to spend time farting about through thousands of VST's never knowing which one is the best. I know the Virus is the all time classic synth that has been used to produce many top tunes and knowing that for me sells it.

So should I buy one?????
