i‘m in with giappis driver and mystery for some months now. it works for me in catalina and on my test drive big sur on an intel macmini. not made a definite decision to move completely to bigsur (besides for some tradeoffs with plugins not working anymore vs. benefits of bigsur and lpx latest

Are they really that bad? Was planning on getting their editor for my OB-6.

good luck and hear from you in a about (let's say) 2 or 3 years
At this point I'm looking into filing a lawsuit as under consumer protection law, Access has sold me a product which doesn't work as advertised. I'll keep you up to date on the progress of this.

as a standalone it does a good job.
so: im on lpx 10.6.3 on my main system Catalina with my Mac mini 6-core i7 intel ;-). but as au plug it had some total recall crashes and crashes when resizing, they should be cleaned now. but : the last beta version 2 was really stabile on my Big Sur (!) test drive (with lpx 10.6.3) and it is still on my 10.6.3 system under Catalina.
I must say after the launch of the V3 I got very fast feedback to my inputs from Jany.. I think it's important to give him the feedbacks with crash logs and so on. In the week after launch there were 3 updates...

try the ti midi biappi midi driver avaiable on github. Reset Audio Midi Setup. im on catalina too and have a solid clocking here and going out via spdif.

Now: here we go ! Jani from MI delivers one year later a capable and very good update of the editor for all virusses invluding the TI and even for M-Macs ! As for me V2 was in my simple setup and my needs fully working but a standalone versuon is great !

very disappointing for pro3 …

soundtower ? never ever … crappy sw editors
You guys thought about midiquest ?
-
did you create a multiinstrument in logic with midi assignment of the related parts ?

Sorry, you and me are chatting, well not anymore, about the same topic in another thread here.
Maybe you are being so rude because you are tired of having to deal with people's problems, which are quite a few in the last couple of months I guess. Well, you chose your job.I've more than once not only stated all my specs, but contacted the support, and maybe you remember, the only answere I got was to buy a hub. So here I am, again, in the thread about USB hubs for the Virus TI problem and all you do is being an arrogant mod.
Do you even take the time to read what the people are writing, or is it just the standard "email the support".
I'm done, thanks, I'm pinpointing this thread including you and your answeres throughout this forum in all other musical related forums, I'm active in. You are already known for your arrogance, but this is just ridiculous.
Way to treat your customers...do you have a free usb-c port?

And midi sync and arpegiator works well? i'm curious because this would be the perfect solution right now.
In my setup it does very well, much better than in a „external daw host“ scenario. the network between my two macs is established via thunderbolt so latency is not really an issue (you can set the buffer size in audiogridder) because of speed it delivers and the plugin delay compensation on the audiogridder side (in my master mac) there are three things i strongly recommend: deactivate wlan on the host mac (so that the host ethernet connection to your master mac is set as the primary), connect the virus directly to the host mac usb port and use the analog/spdif outs of the virus (which are routing in directly to the master mac via apollo in my case)
i managed even to use older plugins like vanguard, cronox or fx plugs via 32live with the audiogridder .
-
Which indicates the development resources are available…
At what time in this video they're making a statement about beta version ? It's a painful stream...
-
Glad you found this way too as my post in this discussion
Actually a better solution for me turned out: Use Audiogridder with its Network Solution. So you have the PluginScreen on your main Mac. There are some minor Screen Issues, but from my view far way better Workflow than my prior SetUp

Display MoreWell one solution to get a working station on catalina is to di an outsourcing of the virus on a mojave driven system in a test environment. saying and done that with a macbook air 2017 as i was lucky to have one and it‘s is running my ti2 incl. plug as a slave. iv done a midi over network connection to my main working horse ( a macmini last version before the m1 generation) and slaved the macbook air with abelton live (running virus) or logic pro(running virus) via midi clock resp. mtc. 3 things i learned: 1. Logic Pro as Master has to be set to pattern sync mode (not spp mode) as ableton (lit 10) falls out of sync after the first cycle. With Logic on slaved side in mtc theres not such a problem 2. In my slave DAW i set the virus plug at live modus and Direct monitoring, because i dont want any audio traffic over the usb i just need midi over ethernet (my access ti2 is wired via spdif to my apollo, which is conneczed to the Master ie mac mini. 3. Generating a external instrument on the MasterDAWas utility) gives the freedom to add any other plugs (effetcs for example) on the master DAW. Remeber to choose the LAN Port channel for communicating the two macs. In both slave daw‘s situation this setup is working very well., even a midi beat clocking (ableton) has very satisfying results. Latency is not a problem since only midi datas are transmitted this way.
I know that this is a costintensive solution, but as i said: i was lucky with this macbook air 2017 and will be able to run virus in combination with newer operating MacOS ( even BIG SUR)
PS i have even the possibility to transfer some 32 Bit wrapped plugs this way.but this setup would need a audiointerface macbooksided ( as i said i dont want any audio traffic over ethernet)
Perhaps this is of use for someone
Display MoreRight.
I've found a work-around which works for me, but it's really not ideal!
What I'm now doing, is using an old MacBook running an older MacOS, to host the plug-in with Ableton.
Then, on my main system, I send MIDI to the Virus' MIDI input DIN. Ableton is mapped with multiple channels, one for each MIDI channel I'm using, so that I can drive multiple channels from my main DAW.
Outputs are then send to the analogue outputs.
"Live" mode used, to cut latency.
Then, when I've finished editing, I move my patches to the RAM slots. Performance and recording then done using groups which I set up manually.
It's a real pain in the backside, but the only practical way around I've found so far - until and unless the Mystery Islands plug-in becomes usable. -
Hi all
I‘m confrontated with a Reset to 48000hz Sample Rate for the Use of Virus as an audiocard everytime i restart my MacBook Air on Mojave by the Audio Midi Setup. The Virus Ti 2 is the sole hardware connected to it. I did a reinstall, tried to make a new configuration in AM Setup, but it always changes thd Sample Rate after a Restart.
Any Help herefor ?

Using here the beta version (though I paid), you have to follow every step indicated on their homepage !
and overall clear the virtual cable port out of the physical output in the environment, if not it permanently crashes logic on Catalina cause of midi loops

Using Startech HB30A3A1CSFS with Genesys MTT Controller onboard

yes, exactly
and yes, presets managing is the price😏 for now i just save the ableton sets under the same name as my main projects in Logic on my mastermac and have to patch it everytime. perhaps i‘ll find a solution for that, some kind of plattform crossing programm change 🙄
edit: done, just created a midi instrument on logic pro on my master and choosed LAN channel. programm change events now on slave side in ableton accepted. will take time to name all the patches in the midi instrument but found some bank templates here in the somewhere.

ableton 10 lite for hosting the virus plug
i did a thunderbridge LAN Connection between the macs and
so far very stable setting in terms of clocking and „arping“, so my (simple) workflow isn‘t that messed up, just have a „external monitor“ for the virus with direct acces to the plugin parameters on the macbookair, that‘s all ( good thing is i can even push the plugin gui to the best resolution to deal with
