zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
Feature:
There are the usual suspects as far as oscillators, filters, and patches. The factory presets are some of the best I've heard. I was pretty amazed by that. Looks like the engineers behind this thing love it enough to play with it and add to it's banks. Didn't give this thing a 10 because Access, as of yet, has not released a x64 bit version of Total Integration--this is a major issue.

Quality:
Out of the box it is a wonderfully crafted piece of equipment. Feels good to the touch and has lots of pulsing lights that grab your attention. Loudest little synth light show I have in my studio.

Value:
Easily worth the coins you spend. When you look at this thing after you give it the first go around you will probably realize that it's here (in your studio) to stay.

Desirability:
The knobs are sturdy and feel good to the touch and to the turn. The pulsing lights dance responsively and respectively according to settings. If you haven't seen one in action, youtube it and watch her flash.

Sound:
The sound produced by the Access Virus Ti is forthright, powerful, rich, and honest. There are no strange anomalies present in any of the sounds it produces. The synthesizer is a wonderful piece to have and adds bright, powerful sounds to any mix. Impressive.

Ease of Use:
Very intuitive. It will be up and running on a DAW or as a standalone instantly after installation and configuring of your hardware.

Support:
The people at Access are excellent; again, the only problem I have is no support of x64 bit operating systems. This is very essential for those of us who use lots of instances of plug-ins and utilize rigs boasting more than 3.2gb of good RAM. I can not overstate this. Sorry, no 10 for the team until this issue is resolved.

Overall:
I decided to get a virus because I am a firm believer in the power of computer music. The 'total integration' schema was very attractive. Access provides frequent updates and a few popular electronic musicians provide custom banks for downloading. I will use this thing for years to come. I want to just bury myself in it's sounds and produce music where the Virus is in charge of all leads; I suppose I could experiment like this for a year or so. I do this just so I can truly survey what she can do.
