Great to know it's still there, though. Yowzer! And it's very good!

can you get through this using a TI? Shame there isnt a specific one for the TI range

Just watch the videos put up on the new Access Website

Goes well in-depth into the TI.

Unfotunately, I don't think there's an updated version of the tutorial for the TI.

Thats a shame you would have thought someone might have done one by now i pritty sure it would sell well if someone where to write one.

My problem is i know a fair bit about my virus and how to program certain sounds but struggle a lot with some sounds i want to make and just carnt do it. This usually means the TI gets left turned off as i just dont have the time really to try and program it. A revised guide would be a god send

It definitely is a great piece of information, but I found it somewhat lacking. It does provide "some" guidance as far as how to emulate "particular" idiosyncrasies of some vintage gear, but, doesn't really do enough in the way of patch dissection. Great starting point, though.

I can honestly say that the Sound On Sound Synth Secrets series is worth it's weight in gold. Problem is, they don't really cover much in the way of lead sounds, pads, etc.. It's more aimed at emulating real instruments and sounds. It's unfortunate that there is really no "definitive" guide on synthesis. I really do think that is a void that is waiting for someone to fill. Every book always seems to have something missing. I really do think that the "definitive" guide would have to be a living document, like a wiki. Anyway, here's a link to the series: http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/allsynthsecrets.htm
