interesting that you say that. i was always under the impression that the faceplate of the TI1 is harder to read (lower contrast for many things, more crowded in total). the color coding (shift functions = red) i always found hard to read on stage.

The old faceplate was hard to read, but the new one isn't an improvement, in my opinion. I like the new wraparound faceplace design but the contrast between the gray metal surface and the white/gray labels could be better.

Yeah, boo!
Someone who has/had sync arp issues with TI1 and now has a TI2 please deliver your verdict!!

Mine arrived yesterday.
No sound coming out of the machine.
No demo sound, no midi, no vc noo nooo no.

Next week it's coming back to thomann....

Just got mine.

Works awesome - installed latest beta the .06.

That extra 25% DSP seems to be working... big patches and Multis are really sounding great!!

How did you estimate that?

[cl516]

SOME patches that I had in previous TI definitely clicked - and voices would sooner than later. TI2 seems to be able to handle it a tiny bit better.

The annoying part is this: with some complex patches and/or multis, the TI2 proves itself to be able to handle a lot of "calculations" in one moment. But after a brief pause, when I resume playing, it'll start clicking on just two notes. What the heck, I don't get it.

Did you try to reset the unit?

Is the clicking caused by the TI not being able to keep up or is it possibly a latency issue (too small asio buffer)? I figured the TI running out of steam would manifest itself as voices dropping, not clicking? Or am I mistaken?

Wait when you guys refer to latency, I'm assuming you're referring to using the unit with VC. I'm using it as standalone unit with the analog outs...

I too thought if the TI ran out of steam if would be voices dropping.

Maybe in multimode when there are too many patches layered, each part volume needs to be lowered? But it doesn't sound like an overloading thing.
