I can't speak for those other synths you've mentioned but I got a Virus Ti about 4 months ago and absolutely love it. I can finally make those sounds I never could before and my productions have a marked level of quality over what I made before utilizing the Ti.

Try this:

Start with an init patch.
Switch both osc 1 and 2 to hypersaw 9x
Turn the filter down to one third.
Turn on unison, set it to 8 voices.
Turn up the amp release.
Switch on reverb and delay effects.
Now play some big chords, or just smash your hands randomly on the keys. Do this for about 30 seconds, it should start to click alot.

I know I shouldn't really be using that much unison with a polyphonic patch, but it's the only way to reproduce these clicks consistently.
I've been able to reproduce this on all Virus TIs I've used (Three so far).
By the way, this works in standalone mode as well, so you can't blame the USB.


Interesting I will try this tonight. Using the lastest 2.5.1 firmware and a dedicated USB card with the NEC chipset which I was told was the best one to get.

Also, now this is before I upgraded to the 2.5 firmware, I had a lot of pops and clicks and researching on the Ti forums I came to a thread where a suggested remedy was to turn off the white BPM light completely, and dim the other lights. I did this and noticed a lot of the poping and clicking was gone. I can dig up the thread and link to it if you want.

The new version introduces a special Live Mode which lowers the latency on certain hosts such as Ableton Live and Motu Digital Performer. We improved Virus Control's handling of songs with large amounts of track automation and added video tutorials for Steinberg Cubase and Digidesign Pro Tools. Various issues have been addressed and improved or bug fixed. In difference to the public beta version, 2.5.1 release is Apple Logic 8 compatible and also fixed an issue which might lead to unwanted crackling while playing.


To be fair that means jack shite

There's a certain peace of mind, knowing that the instrument can handle whatever you wish to do with it.


Exactly, I want my Virus to be reliable.

I was actually given this version to test from access long before it was available to the public, I told them that it did NOT fix the problem, they've ignored me since.

Thanks, but I've seen that thread already. The BPM LED tweak did not fix my problem.

It's not shit at all, it has serious issues. I love the Virus, if it would work like it's supposed to.
I'm just very frustrated with Access, that's all.

You've got good reasons for it.. It's really amazing that they still haven't resolved this issue yet!
