See description Access to the site.

Just comment on the following:

Sounds are divided into two types: What can replace the RAM and ROM are figs.

There's no storage medium Intgr must go through the USB connection (Note it takes two and no USB hub)

We can edit the sounds via synth or via the Virus Control software is the VSTi or Audio Unit format (por MAC) and therefore must be used: Cubase or Logic (Ableton Live, Digital Performer, Protools SOON t support for users against Sonar go your way is not a host medium.

UTILIZATION

The config is simple, but it is a normal synthbr />
Software Virus Control makes edition simpler but some bugs disturb the fte (among others on the arpeggiator)

No need to rely on the manual is in English (except for the paper version VF is a PDF file). But mostly it's just a description of the screens except that some of the synth notches are not even Describes the doc.

Access does not provide the "MIDI Implementation Chart" or a list of commands noon. Submitted the south a number of bugs (among other synchro)

The list of patches is not even and almost complte inutilisables.Ceux who complain of doc KORG, ROLAND YAMAHA bin or the even worse There's not even a drawing of the view entire top and rear face.

SOUNDS

For sound effects and there's nothing to say except it's good that some plant patches the machine (Note that while we continue to play key nothing ...)
and as there's no button "panic" or rel ON / OFF must unplug the power cord and plug to restart it.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for about 4 months (I found one when it is placed on the market in France)

What I like most is the sounds and effects.

What I like least is:

many bugs, some of which occur in fawn totally random image without warning and without displaying any error message (for example, it turns on the TI - There's no on / off switch - and white screen and have to plant stuff unplug the power cord or use a specially made with switch).

Virus Control is not a standalone application but a plug-ins.

The doc incomplte and very little useful (even in the French version)

Did you try other models: yeah plus it's stuff I bought (the MicroKorg and the V-Synth XT)

Report / price quality: Ben's stuff is expensive for what I would call unstable and incomplete. And the media looks bad because one comes with OS 1.0 on 1.0.9 is the things do not s'amliorent (Remote function is still not available, for example).

An example of the lack of seriousness, on the occasion of NAMM 2006 Access announced the release of Update 1.1, which provides precisely the function as well as Remote amloration of patch management and announces the line F February. Ben guess what? yes, you've found it is in March and no SHIFT 1.1 and above all no new date available.

Well, no I would do probably not the choice.
