Hi,

My Virus TI2 Desktop is really playing up. Works fine in stand alone, but just does not seem to like working via USB/Virus control in logic anymore.Where to start?

If i can even get it to make a sound in Logic (this normally takes many many attempts, switching back on and off, quitting Logic, resetting virus etc, restarting computer), it becomes completely unresponsive within less than a minute of playback and tends to just sustain a note - resulting in me either quitting logic or turning off the Virus. I'll reload then it won't work at all and i'll have to keep trying again to get it to work as above.

I'm running Mac Pro (Early 2008) - 10.11.06 and using Logic Pro X and using a NI Komplete Kontrol keyboard. The virus is updated to 5.1.7.00.

I've had the Virus from new (10+ years) and although getting it to initially start and work in Logic has often been an issue, it is now completely unusable (via USB) as it stands.

I'm wondering whether the Keyboard might be causing the issues? Drivers/conflicts etc?

Any ideas? (p.s. i have just replaced the USB lead - making no difference).

Kind regards - Matt

seriously though, how can i get this shite pice of equipment to work?

Well the most common problem happens when loading up/resuming previous projects, quite frequently i'll load a song up and the Virus software loads and virus configures etc but there simply won't be any sound at all. I then have to go through the practice of turning it off/coming out of logic, restarting etc etc. Finally there may be sound, but its quite a slog! When i use it to record audio only its always solid though and of course sounds great! Its just this issue that frustrate me!

I literally cannot stand the bugginess of this synth via USB. I would possibly put it as being the buggiest/most unreliable piece of electronic equipment i have ever owned!

Think i'll consider bouncing down any audio (if this piece off shite will let me that is) and sell it!

Running on Mac Pro 2008 - El Capitan - 24 gig Ram. This is no new problem though, i've the Virus for 5 or 6 years now!

Not even kidding, now I'm trying to bounce short audio clips but can't because the virus likes to click and pop all over the F-ing place..

Well, i think the subject says it all. I'm fed up with trying to bounce projects with Virus TI2 songs millions of times with the hope that one of them doesn't have some kind of stupid glitch or slow down! At the moment i get all the way through the song then at the end with just 1 synth sound running (that has otherwise been perfectly fine throughout the first 3 mins) decides to change tempo and lag. Cant get around this unless i bounce the song in 2 halfs.

I don't think the lack of processing power is acceptable to be honest with the cost of this.

Haven't posted any new tracks up for ages but i think i made a right goodie yesterday so thought id see what people thought!

Please have a listen and let me know what you think - feedback on structure and the mix really appreciated! Quite a long song but gets big, try and stick with it if you can!

Thanks

Matt

Of Course Optik, would be a pleasure - where are your tunes at?

Cheers Optik,

I'm not really a Dubstep music maker really, i guess i should probably listen to more of it to see what others are doing!

Thanks for the feedback!

Please have a listen to my track below - ideally looking for a bit of feedback. I recently had a go at re-mixing this and think my changes are for the better, but would definitely like to know what others think - improvements/recommendations etc.

Hope you enjoy

Thanks

Matt

Started this new track today, not sure if i'd call it finished but really pleased with it so far. Hope you enjoy - Bit of a dark tune.

If you got a bit of spare time please check out my new track and let me know what you think. Personally i'm really pleased with it even if it is a bit 90's sounding lol - Critique greatly appreciated and welcome:

Cheers

Matt

Thanks John, Would i hear the Gary Newman lead on the Exposure album?

Really pleased to say that earlier I received a phone call from Ollie Winiberg-Betell who presents the BBC Introducing show! He's going to be playing this song this Saturday from 8pm.

Well Chuffed is an understatement! I cant wait!

The station is 95.3FM Please tune in if you can!

Newly mixed track of mine. Please have a listen and let me know what you think! Has a pretty epic crescendo if you can stick with it to the end!

Cheers

Matt

Yes, it was mixed by me, I put EQ and compression on the master buss but, i wouldn't call it mastered exactly! I have no clue about mastering really

Just posted up this song - gone for a bit of humor with this one! hehe

Please have a listen and let me know what you think! Any comments/feedback really appreciated!

Hope you enjoy!

Thanks

Matt

Following from my previous post, i think I've finished mixing my new song "Blamster" (only name i could think of ;))

I would really appreciate some feedback so i can see if I'm on the right track with my mixing. I suppose the question is, was it worth the time and trouble if it sounded ok in the fist place?

The mixed track is:

The unmixed track is:

Thanks

Matt

Feelin happy with this tune I made up today! Not mixed or anthing but wanted to put feelers out to see what people thought? I think it could be a bit of a stomper when finished! Still looking to do this live if any muso's in the Colchester area interested?

Cheers

Matt

Bit of a heavy one - in progress. Thinking about getting it mastered. Any advice/suggestions/criticism before i do?

Cheers!
