Hello,
I just got my first Virus (a TI2 keyboard) a few days ago, and thought I would first go through all the existing built-in and downloadable patches to see what's possible.
A few days later, I'm still going through patches and I'm just blown away. it's Huge! The range, the depth, the sounds...
Once I get comfortable programming this monster, I think I'll be selling my Juno 60 and other analog synths to people who think analog is still better, and use the money to get a second virus!
Anyway, I've found a few patches online that are not working with the TI2. Perhaps someone here can help?
The "Sounds of Revolution soundset 2007 teaser", I've put the midi file in the proper patch area and it doesn't show up in the Virus Control patch file list.
Same goes for all of the midi files from the "Ben Crosland 1999 soundset".
The "Realm mythology soundset" and "Ben Crosland 2000 soundset", the files show up but are empty. I'm guessing the format is for the Virus C only - could someone please translate these into MID files that are TI2 readable?
The "Matt Picone volume 3 - Pop and Rock" midi file works fine, but it comes with this note:
"The SoundDiver library contains more sounds than the MIDI file and the SYX version."
Could someone that can deal with SoundDriver files please post the missing patches in MID format?
Thanks, and awesome job to all the patch authors putting their stuff out there!
John G.
P.S. To the library code people at Access: please add a "Show Differences List" function to compare patches. A "Find Similar", and "Find All Duplicates" would be very useful as well.
Last but not least, some way to export and import patch info in a human readable text format. I can think of many uses for this.
Thanks!!
