Jani just answered my query to info@auraplugins.com. Apparently there is hope.

One can hope…
Has anyone found Aura Plugins on the Internet?
Even so, the TI2 is a magnificent instrument.
So cool! Thanks for sharing!
Our of curiosity, which controller do you use?
Before I bought the Virus, I was using a Waldorf Blofeld, which as you may know, has only 7 knobs. It is a VERY deep synth, so programming it demands reliance on the “matrix” method of parameter entry, in addition to a certain amount of menu-diving. Someone does make a controller specifically for the Blofeld, but I never considered buying it.
For a time I thought about writing a mapping between my X Touch mixing control surface and the Blofeld, running on a BomeBox (a wonderful tool for computer-less MIDI mapping and translation). In the end, I decided that the Virus offered me more (including more knobs!) so I shelved the project.
It is an absolutely wonderful instrument!
The Virus isn’t always “ice cold.” Depending on how you tweak the patch, it can be quite warm and analog sounding.
Keep posting! We’ll both save time and energy by learning tricks from each other.
From my experiments (I only have my Virus about a month at this point but I have spent significant time dedicated to this task), I learned that the Virus TI2 won’t talk to MIDI DIN if there is an active USB connection.
My strategy has been:
HetherGrey I plan something very similar to what you’re trying to do. Currently I sequence my Virus and 3 other sound generators from Cubasis on my iPad. I play the lines into Cubasis from 2 of my instruments which have keyboards.
I have back ordered a Squarp Hapax hardware sequencer. When it comes, I will compose using that, instead of Cubasis. The DAW will be for tracking and mixing both my electronic and acoustic instruments.
I’ve tried doing everything in the DAW and found it very frustrating. Like many, I like hardware instruments and the like.
My experience so far is that at least the standalone app does exactly what it’s advertised to do.
There is a bit of a learning curve, but for my requirements, it has delivered the goods.
I hope there will be a next update. Has anyone received support from Mystery Islands in the last month?
I have not.
ChrisCabbage on my system (specs a few messages up in the thread if you’re curious), the Mystery Islands stand-alone editor remembers the settings reliably.
I am not using the plug-in.
As I reported elsewhere in the forum, I was able to resolve the problem.
The solution:
Set the “MIDI Device Settings” Input Device to “FROM: Virus TI Synth” and Output Device to “TO: Virus TI Synth.”
That said, I have still not received any answer to my tickets on the Mystery Islands site. It seems Jani is not responding at all any more.
Is there any way to know the exact model of DSP chip without opening the case?
Is this worth it to enable a future repair of my synth?
Or are there other “end of life” semiconductor parts in this synth?
I just received my brand-new TI2 Desktop (I love it!).
Is there a reason to buy a few of these DSP chips as spare parts?
There seem to be a number of suppliers who provide these chips, such as:
I found that was the case with the demo version, but once I installed the paid version, it remembered the MIDI settings and UI preferences.
I solved my problem with VirusHE myself, but I am very disappointed that Jani has been completely unresponsive.
Jani, I would very much appreciate an explanation.
I have figured out the problem. The solution was to open “Preferences” and to set the “MIDI Device Settings” Input Device to “FROM: Virus TI Synth” and Output Device to “TO: Virus TI Synth.”
Never the less, Jani, I am not thrilled that you have not answered me here or through the 4 tickets I placed at your website.
I have purchased your product, but only reluctantly.
Maybe Jani is on vacation.
