Slow UI with windows 7



  • Tried it. Sadly no effect for me.


    Thanks for the idea though.

  • Waldorf Largo just had an update released which brings it to 1.5.1. This update states it fixes the Slow UI, especially under Windows 7. It seems the Virus isn't the only synth have any issue with a slower UI under Windows 7. Since Walforf managed to fix their slow response to batch browsing, knob turns etc, I hope Access can do the same soon.

  • I'll add that I'm in the same boat. Win7 x64, Virus control very sluggish. You can notice it easiest by just looking at the meter under one of the channels. Hit a note and watch how slowly the meter fades back to 0. This was snappy and smooth in XP.

  • With Win7 64 becoming the choice OS for Windows musicians, this really needs to be stepped up.

    They said they're working on it several times, we just have to wait. It takes time to rewrite the whole thing. You should HIDE the VC when not using it to make changes, it improves the speed a lot

    Optimism is great, but this issue has really been making my Virus useless for the past few months. It also makes Cubase 5 more sluggish than it should be whenever the Virus is playing sounds, which makes it a less convenient option than most softsynths. I bought it for the total integration and virus control, and so far it isn't delivering. I've been contemplating the idea of returning to XP but my production computer is also used for some of my work so it would be a huge pain to go back.


    I really cannot wait till this thing is fixed and I'm glad I'm not the only one. Would be cool to have a rough idea of what's going on with this fix they're working on.

    Access have been slowly working on it ever since they added x64 support, so they ARE working on it, but from what I can tell, it's not as simple to fix as most bugs. It's already much better than it was, but unfortunately, still not good enough...


    An official progress update would be nice.

    summer holidays make it difficult for a team to work efficiently, all i can say is that in about 2 weeks, everybody involved will be back at work and we hopefully can finish things up. the big chunk of work is done already.


    best, marc

    Thanks for the reply Marc, much appreciated. It had completely slipped my mind about Europe taking long summer holidays, I remember last year the second thing happened while we were all anxiously awaiting a new build of OS 3.

    Thanks Marc. Will try to keep the nagging to a minimum until then ;)

    it's always a "difficult" time. we don't take a break all at the same time (like some countries do) which makes it worse in some cases. i hope you all are able to enjoy the summer weather. we haven't forgot you, this problem is out #1 on windows.
