At this year’s MusikMesse, held last week in Frankfurt, Germany, the Access Virus TI (which stands for Total Integration) easily walked off with the MIPA Award for Best Hardware Synthesizer (seeTuesday’s inSync). We agree, the Virus TI is awesome, but the company simply hasn’t been able to keep up with the demand…until now, that is. Yes, we actually have the Access VirusTI in stock and ready to ship to your door right now!
There are three ground breaking, analog-modeling synthesizers being produced by Access: The 61-note Virus TI Keyboard, the 37-note Virus TI Polar, and the Virus TI Desktop. The Total Integration concept is built on innovative technology that greatly expands the Virus, resulting in an advanced stage/standalone instrument with a killer suite of compelling studio integration features. Here’s a partial list:
- Increased polyphony (to 80 stereo voices!) thanks to a dual-DSP system, two new oscillator types, plus a built-in, programmable argeggiator.
- Fast, user friendly editing using the new, larger display.
- Independent delay and reverb for all 16 multi mode slots plus a total of 129 parallel effects.
- The Access Virus can function as a sample accurate VST/AU instrument.
- Two-way audio and MIDI connectivity plus editor and librarian functions.
- Onboard USB link for total integration of synth and studio.
- 24-bit/192KHz studio-grade audio converters (yes, the TI is also an audio interface!), S/PDIF I/O, and MIDI in and out ports.
- Remote Mode allows the hardware to become a control surface for any MIDI-capable device or software.
- The Virus TI can play over 1,800 oscillators in real time! (No, that’s definitely not a typo.)
Don’t hesitate! Though we have them in-stock right now, the demand for the Access Virus TI is unprecedented. Call your Sweetwater Sales Engineer and grab yours right now!
