Close to buying a TI2 Polar but have a couple of questions

[ChrisN]

Hi everybody,

I'm very close to buying a TI2 Polar but just wanted to clarify a couple of things which I can't quite find exact answers to - sorry if they have been asked before but I did try a search but couldn't find anything.

- There is a transpose mode which seems to indicate that the transpose buttons will affect the internal engine "or" the notes sent out via MIDI. Can this be set to do both at the same time as it would be really useful to be able to both at once as I want to use it as a MIDI controller as well as for the sound engine itself.

- Virus Control looks really useful but I was wondering, can it be run as a stand-alone application for editting. It's just that I run Cakewalk Sonar Home Studio 7 and I a little concerned about it not necessarily working correctly but would still like to use it as a librarian and real-time editor.

- I know this will sound silly but looking at video tutorials of Virus Control on the Access site (Is this the latest version - it says it's v3?), the mouse "greeen splash" animation when you click - can that be turned off - that looks as though it will drive me mad!!!

- And most important of all - which should I get, the black or white polar as I can't for the life of me decide!?!

Thanks in advance

Chris
