Just got my new Virus TI2 for my birthday present (to myself of course, as no one would buy me one he he ) am loving the sounds, and depth of this Keyboard. Was inspired by Gary Numan as i know he uses Access Virus synths for the BIG moog type sounds, and i love that sound. I have been into synths since the early 80's played in numerous bands since the 80's, and still crave new sounds. I record a lot of my own music too with a long time collaborator, who also happens to be a keyboard player too... I enjoy programming and have a reasonable idea of how to program most synths, I own...
Roland XP80
Korg Triton Extreme 88
Korg Triton LE 64
Korg X3
Roland Juno 106
Roland SH101
Yamaha SY35
Korg Kontrol 49 (Midi Control Keyboard)
Korg Legacy (MS20 Hardware synth & M1, Poly61, Wavestation, Monopoly)
Alesis SR18 Drum Machine
And now my Access Virus TI2 Keyboard.
So as you can see... i like my Musical Gadgets.
I record and produce music mainly for pleasure, but when im in a new band/project program my keyboards for as near a copy to original as i can get...i like the challenge!
I am just starting to learn this beast, and its superb the amount of diversity you have, a good basic understanding of synthesis certainly helps... which i have.. but love learning new tricks and tips. I hope to get some exciting stuff off here and also contribute in the future once i have learned how to twist this infectious beast!....
Heres to many sleepless nights!
