The Access Virus TI offers the freedom of software synthesis, the power of computer connectivity, and independent hardware portability and control. It has 61 semi-weighted keys with velocity sensitivity and aftertouch. The dual DSP engine serves up 512 RAM and 2048 ROM patches with 80-stereo-voice polyphony (average) as well as a powerful array of oscillators, filters, LFOs, envelopes, and effects. You also get a per-patch programmable arpeggiator and studio-grade 24-bit/192kHz audio conversion. The Virus TI Keyboard links to your computer with VirusControl, a companion software product which ports the hardware synth into a host sequencer for use as a sample-accurate VST/AU instrument, simultaneously offering 2-way audio and MIDI connectivity, control surface functionality, editor and librarian functions, and more.Totally Integrated SynthesizerA scalable USB link connects the Virus to a Mac or PC for total integration of synth and studio. The VirusControl plug-in automatically detects and connects the synth, ensuring a hassle-free configuration every time.From inside a host application, the plug-in enables the Virus hardware to appear as a multichannel VST/AU soft-synth with up to 4 sub-mixes (or 2 ž stereo). Access' proprietary driver technology makes Virus TI the world's first hardware synthesizer with sample-accuracy timing and a delay-compensated audio/MIDI connection.Seamless interconnectivity also provides a real benefit in the software sequencer environment. All multi-timbral sounds and settings used for a project are stored within it with the plug-in, for snapshot total recall, plus editor and librarian functions with no SysEx or 3rd party software hassles.The Virus hardware is also well-equipped to capitalize on the power of Total Integration. With 24-bit/192KHz balanced analog, S/PDIF I/O and MIDI in and out ports, the new Virus is well-suited for use as the main audio and MIDI I/O center for your entire rig. These functions are especially practical for the laptop studio, offering an unmatched range of features and capabilities from one product.Additionally, a Remote Mode allows the Virus hardware to become a control surface for any MIDI-capable device or software, mapping each of the 33 knobs to a specific MIDI message. TI ships with a great selection of templates and includes 32-user memories for custom controller maps. It's a powerful addition that greatly increases the value of the synth's studio footprint.The Legendary Sound of Access: EvolvedFor Total Integration the power and performance of the synth engine have been taken to new extremes thanks to a newly optimized core which delivers unprecedented performance. For starters, polyphony is more than doubled, to 80 voices under average conditions.Alongside the award-winning Virus oscillator models, two completely new types have been added. First is the real Wavetable oscillator model. This unique algorithm can blend waves to create evolving motion or switch bet More details about product Access Virus TI Totally Integrated Synthesizer Keyboard
