i just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to you for your Virus videos. my Ti2 is arriving tomorrow and to say i am excited to receive it would be something of an understatement. your videos are an incredible resource and really i dont think i can thank you enough for doing these.
Thanks for taking the time to comment. It means a lot................I'm excited for you.......that's an amazing piece of gear. I'm sure it will bring you tons of joy and inspiration
Great idea with these programming lessons. I'm new to the world of synthesizers and eager to learn something new! Especially that I recently bought Virus Ti2 also thanks to Your channel. :) Can't wait for more! Greetings from Poland!
Hope you're doing ok in Poland......life's unpredictable and odd in every possible way I suspect, not unlike the rest of the world.......I have a few Virus vids on my channel, (separate Playlist) so I hope you'll get some benefit from them.....
I seem to be coming back to your vids , especially the Virus video series. I don't know why lol. In a few hours after I take kid to tutoring school. Back in my project studio room and I'll be turning on the Virus TI2 as I need a lead sound for the melody I made. I do use, I have to use the Aura editor to use the matrix. That's the only thing I use it for. I'm like a mad scientist going back and forth the matrix and virus knobs.
@@willswitchcraft There is one more thing that I find just perfect I am taking about the sounding of your voice and clear articulation. This is so important. It feels like I have Access to study in university of Virus! Thanks a lot!
Good to hear........when I listen back, the video is quite dull, and is only going to be of interest to people trying to learn to program, but I get so many inquiries, I thought I'd put it together.......
Is there a way to use the step sequencer and the arp on the virus ti2 without the computer software and if so, how would I set this up? Got a 3k synth, it should be possible!
The arp is easy to configure on the hardware, but as per the sequencer, I'd suggest just going on the Access Virus Users Forum.....probably the most complete source for such info (I never use the Sequencer in the Ti myself, so I have no personal insights.....)
@@willswitchcraft thanks I can set the algorithm for the arp on the Virus but to actually tweak the sequencer, I had to use the TI2 plugin or Aura MI software on new mac. There is no way to change many of those settings via the Virus TI2 hardware menu screens that I could find in the manuals or forums.
I haven't really used the arpeggiator much on my Virus, so I'm not going to be much help here. I'm surprised that you couldn't find answers on the Virus Forum - seems like there's a pretty solid group of users there, but perhaps, now that the company isn't really moving forward, the interest and support are waning.......
Definitely use the Aura MI software for mod matrix as the manual process on the hardware is very painful! I do fine without the plugin software for other functions. I only use the software when recording to DAW or if I need to use the mod matrix, load patches or configure the sequencer for the arp.
Yeah, and of course for Patch Librarian stuff, it's indispensable......when I had a Ti Desktop, I used to just do most of my programming from the front panel, but now that I'm using a Snow, I rely on the software for all my in depth programming. . . . . .
I'm having a problem that perhaps you could help me with.....I have a backup of the sounds on my Virus Ti desktop (which I've now sold), but I can't upload any of those patches into the Virus Snow - some strange issue, even though they have an almost identical synth engine......I need to get someone to take my Virus back up (.vti file) and then create .mid patch banks for me. I only need the first 4 RAM banks. Interested in helping me out? I can send you - not only my back up file, but over a hundred different patch banks from various sourced, for the Virus.
Матрица модуляции, на мой взгляд, весьма сложный модуль синтезатора Virus. Теперь мой Virus будет чувствовать себя гораздо лучше! 🙂 Благодарю Вас Will! Привет из России! 🤝
@@willswitchcraft I just tried it and it works and sounds authentic because the chips are being emulated and the actual hardware rom from the synths are used. The interface is very similar to the VST plugin that comes with the Virus TI. They also have emulation for the MicroQ, and are working on the nord range.
The only thing holding me back from getting a virus is the programming tools are PC only. Does anyone know if a Mac version of any editor exists? Open source or commercial?
I did a whole video on that.......check my Virus playlist........you can use the Virus Control on a Mac, but only if you have one running an older OS (I keep one for that purpose) but the Mystery Islands Music Virus HR software (which I mention in this video, perhaps you skipped past it), is awesome and kept up to date with every OS update......
@@willswitchcraft - I skipped around - I find virus videos frustrating due to the lack up software support on Mac...effectively shooting myself in the foot! Argh! lol. thanks for the details...I'll check out the Mystery Islands Music app. Cheers!
I fully understand.......It's rare that I'm fully engrossed in something enough to watch 20 minutes,........Here's a video which you should find helpful: ua-cam.com/video/B5ZopRrVnNo/v-deo.html

Thank you for your excellent work. I find your Virus videos very useful!

thank you, ...it makes it all worthwhile when I get such great comments.................
Well You are really a great Disco`er ! lol! Best Regards
I enjoyed it a lot. Never had a Virus and it's like exploring its capabilities. Thank You for this!!
It's full of capabilities....thanks for stopping by.......best of the Season to you and yours.....
Angry bees at 13:35. You're good at presenting this material. Thanks. This synth look so fun to explore the possibilities.
thanks for watching
I was reminded of the sound of two mosquitoes buzzing around your head as you're trying to sleep 😊
Brillinat vid Will. More Virus vids please, they r sooooo awesome

Another fantastic and informative video - thanks Will! Happy Holidays.
Thanks.......All the best to you................
you can tell that you know the virus well and really like it👌🎼
Good to hear........when I listen back, the video is quite dull, and is only going to be of interest to people trying to learn to program, but I get so many inquiries, I thought I'd put it together.......
Thanks for this video, cool that you use the hardware to explain this topic!
Thanks Dustin.......Glad you took the time to watch and comment
Thanks!
Ow yeah, will try it out with our virus c and ti2
enjoy!

@@willswitchcraft Hi, how are you doing? If you still need assistance, I'll be happy to help. I have a Virus TI2 desktop and the Aura patch librarian.
Got it all sorted out, thanks

Большое спасибо.
What do you think about the OSTIVIRUS ?
Haven't checked it out, but I'm really curious

Please upload more video tutorial of virus to manipulate whit ableton
I don't use Ableton, sorry
Donde worry i tutorial like this. Is great. I hace the ti2 and i wana play the ti2 whitout ableton. UA-cam are a great teacher
thanks..........have fun with your Ti2
