That's a very pragmatic approach but it seems love of a given instrument often outweighs whether a smaller synth company may go belly-up. Experience with this is quite actualized by owners of previous incarnation of Waldorf Synths; some of the best and deepest synths were made then and what keeps Waldorfians with hardware/software issues afloat is a tight community such as we have here because in Waldorf's particular situation, due to details of that previous bankruptcy, intellectual property of those great instruments went the way of those no longer employed and whatever they retain in their synapses to share and help, sans any help from new Waldorf-Music.de
I am interested in what, if any, Access Music will release next and if lessons learned with two versions of Ti line are actualized in a bug-free integration OR something completely new and innovative. DSI Prophet 12 is probably only thing remotely coming close to the Virus without Total Integration, but it certainly has very interesting architecture as well as most versatile LFO's in hardware currently. I am betting that Mr. Kemper is working on something rather new and this re-release of Dark Star TI2 may be to raise more resources for same...only speculation!
