    ° Opinion on

    I just erecevoir the Beast, spent 8 hours on it.
    Complete, especially with the PC / mac.

    UTILIZATION

    Config quite simple if one takes the time to read the manual to include two or three orders not "natural"

    Edition as simple bcp parameters available on the panel. Also the manual is very well done, with even a dash of humor that lightens the content rather pointed ...

    SOUNDS

    OK, the sound it is there ... This is my first "big" analog synth (modeling) after AI1 and micro korg. The sound is really richer, more alive and sponsor! We really feel like an instrument before, it makes you want to play. I think this synth is complete and therefore knows no l…

    SOUNDS

    OK, the sound it is there ... This is my first "big" analog synth (modeling) after AI1 and micro korg. The sound is really richer, more alive and sponsor! We really feel like an instrument before, it makes you want to play. I think this synth is complete and therefore knows no limits.

    However, the presets (like tjs) its really disappointing!

    OVERALL OPINION

    So only qq hours of use ... Strong point: it seems solid, the knobs are nice and clear.
    The buttons themselves are ugly but effective. Buy 800 euros.
    It's really good stuff, powerful and strong ...
    A buy eyes closed!

    Access Music Virus BPublished on 10/31/08 at 16:00
    This board has everything I need to create sounds. Plenty of oscillators and filters, and ~35 physical knobs. Love the individual outputs.

    Price paid

    $1500

    UTILIZATION

    OK you need to spend a lot of time with the baby to design sounds from scratch. The menus are a bit hard to access via the small LCD screen. Get yourself the SoundDiver-Virus librarian software, it makes things much easier. Theres a standalone version (if you dont have sound diver).

    I travelled a lot with my Virus and it never broke. One day though, one of the internal chips was damaged; I panicked, because I bought the virus in a different country and wasnt sure if my warranty was still working... Well, Access to…

    I travelled a lot with my Virus and it never broke. One day though, one of the internal chips was damaged; I panicked, because I bought the virus in a different country and wasnt sure if my warranty was still working... Well, Access told me to go to this one local music store, and the guys there replaced the chip for free, and while I was waiting! THAT's what I call customer support.

    SOUNDS

    Gorgeous! I am not a dance music guy and I was a bit scared to have a trance-only machine in my hands; I was wrong. The sound is excellent, and I don't feel stuck in a genre (though the factory soundset is mostly dance oriented). Lush pads and basses that make my house shakes.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I love this synth but I would like: no menu to "explore".
