As already mentioned in another thread:

...the Virus TI still works great with Windows and as a standalone synth.

Pretty difficult to take legal action because a more than ten year old product (the Virus TI) doesn't work with latest Apple software anymore, especially since Apple deliberately broke compatibility.

That said, I'd also love to upgrade my Mac...

You know, I’d reluctantly agree if Access had officially declared that they had discontinued software support or had they discontinued the TI but this is not the case.

Just take a look at the “virus” section of their website boasting the Total Integration and free software updates. This spilled with the fact they’re still selling brand new models is clearly false advertising!

Have you considered taking legal action against Access Music? Their guise of “Total Integration” is nothing short of false advertising. Their support team have refused to comment on any intentions to resolve this in the future despite still producing the synth and selling it at a premium price.

Was something wrong with the current OS?

I had a somewhat similar issue when I started using Massive, trying to get sounds out of it that are similar to The Virus that is. My tip is to stop trying, they are both fantastic synths but have very different sounds. Massive offers a lot that the Virus doesn't but the Virus also offers a lot that Massive doesn't. Hypersaws, Unison and FM sound better on the Virus I've found.

Erm, just change the output to one of the Virus outputs? I've used the TI on various setups with little to no issues, whenever I had problems I discovered it was an error with my setup. I guess there's an error with yours also.

Isn't that called Key Follow and already a modulatable source?

I can't remember why but the use of the Live feature when using Live is a must otherwise the latency is horrible when playing keys. Ableton Live is a little pricey but worth it especially if you're into performing live without being just a DJ. In regards to Pianos I use Native Instruments Kontakt, NI products are also pricey though, as is anything worth having really...

Did you try putting the Virus into Live mode when using Live?

MrMowgli, I believe the question is more about wishing to control at what note on the keyboard the modulation is centred (the point at which has no affect, if you go below this point your modulation is negative, above the point the modulation is positive).

Without looking at my Virus the I'd suggest looking in the filter section, I'm pretty sure I remember something being there...

To be fair to Access they have been upgrading the features and software of the TI and TI2 constantly for years, the TI now compared to when it first came out has loads more sonic features. Realistically other than a few layout parts and higher power processing there is little to no difference between the TI and the TI2. There probably wont be a requirement for a TI3 until the Hardware needs to be changed

I don't believe either Logic Pro or Live are free of issues but I use both, I would certainly say Live is the better one for ... live as it also has all the other tools for live performance

Now this is something I'd like to do, I use my TI2 with my Mac Pro desktop machine in the studio but my Macbook Pro when I'm traveling. Any tips will be very welcomed!

Turn the volume back up.

What is it you're trying to do? Sound Diver will help you load and organise patches onto your Virus B, the only thing is Sound Diver was discontinued so long ago you will need an old operating system to be able to install and run it ...

would 3/16 not work?

I think the answer to your question is unfortunately you will need the OS on your Virus to match the software in your computer as it needs to be synced while used in total integration

make a multi, use the same preset for more than one part, wire the separate parts to separate outs?

I think you need to import the files and re export the MIDI from a DAW or something like that, I had a similar problem to this which I managed to sort out myself but I can't quite remember what I did...

I don't think the Virus C had it's own banks as such, but there's a thread on this forum somewhere with the latest old OS banks, was it OS4?
