Access Virus Ti2 Polar Keyboard Synthesizer
— As much as a craftsman depends on the quality of his tools in order to achieve exceptional results, many musicians rely on the Virus to impress their audience. That's because for the success of artists today, a stunning sonic signature is as important as the unforgettable melody.The Virus TI platform is the sublime fusion of an 12-year triathlon in sound-research, distillation of user input, and the simple desire to create an exceptional instrument. Conceived as a virtual analogue synthesizer it grew into a multi-synthesis workstation which seamlessly integrates into your production environment using our unique Total Integration plug-in technology.
The new edition features 25 more calculating power and a completely re-designed housing.

More Details:
Signature look
Aluminium and wooden side panels, landmark designs and functionality in a sturdy metal housing - Access instruments have always been at the forefront. We take great pride in the build quality of our synthesizers which are designed, engineered and built in Germany.
Oscillators
Three main oscillators and one sub oscillator per voice. A main oscillator can comprise of various oscillator types including the classic virtual analog oscillators (saw,variable pulse, sine, triangle, 62 spectral waves with several FM modes) and hypersaw (a multi saw-tooth oscillator with up to 9 stacked oscillators, 9 sub oscillators and sync oscillator at the same time). Wavetable oscillators with 100 multi-index wavetables, feature variable resolution and optional pulse-width modulation. Graintable oscillators apply granular synthesis techniques for independent control of pitch and formants to warp a waveform beyond recognition. Formant oscillators sound like running a signal through a massive, modulatable filterbank with hundreds of resonant bands being morphed by the wavetable index.
Filters
Two fully independent filters (lowpass, highpass, bandpass, bandstop) with an optional saturation module located in between both filter blocks. The saturation module can add one of several distortions and lo-fi effects or an additional low/- high-pass filter. Optional self-resonating Moog cascade filter simulation with circuit overload and 1-4 poles.
Modulation
Two-dimensional modulation matrix with six slots (1 source and 3 modulation targets each). Every feasible parameter can be modulated in realtime. Three LFOs with additional hardwired destinations along with one user-definable slot. Two lightning-fast, multi-stage envelopes (ADSTR) - LFOs can be used as ramp generators as well.
Effects
The FX section has independent delay and reverb per patch (even in multi mode), along with multiple distortion/lo-fi algorithms, phaser, chorus/flanger, character control, ring modulator/shifter, EQ plus a global vocoder. There is no difference between single and multi modes - patches sound exactly the same.
Arpeggiator
Each patch contains it's own arpeggiator pattern feat. 32 programmable steps (length and velocity can be adjusted per step) along with a global control for swing/shuffle timing and one for note lengths. Pretty much every parameter including the pattern itself, the amount of octaves and many more can be controlled using the modulation matrix.
I/O
6 balanced outputs (@ +4dB), backed by 192 Khz/24bit D/A converters, with soft-limiting. Two inputs with 24-bit A/D. Dedicated headphone out. MIDI in, out, and thru. S/PDIF digital audio (44.1/48 kHz) inputs & outputs. USB is used for MIDI and audio transmission (adding 3 additional stereo audio outputs) and works at 12Mb/s
Enclosure
Great synth-action keyboard with 37 keys, velocity response and aftertouch. Hold and Control pedal inputs. Winter-White finish, aluminium and wooden side panels, white LEDs and display, wood rail beneath the keyboard. Virus TI Snow: Winter-White finish, white LED and display, wood rail beneath the front panel.
Surround sound output
Every part can be panned dynamically between two stereo outputs for quadraphonic effects.
Hardware controls
32 knobs, 43 buttons, 73 LEDs and Pitch/-Modulation wheel if applicable.
Polyphony
Between 25 to 110 voices*, depending on the complexity of the patch.
Multi Mode
Multi programs can have fully-independent embedded singles, without the links to single banks required by most synths. This provides freedom from breaking other programs.
Memory
1024 RAM and 3328 ROM sounds, 16 embedded multi patches along with 112 conventional multi slots, 16 parts in multi mode.
Remote Templates
Turn the Virus into a MIDI remote, the sound engine will still work independently. 32 user programmable templates to reassign most panel knobs controlling control third party plug-ins and MIDI synthesizers (TI Desktop/Keyboard/Polar only).
Smooth parameter changes
Adaptive control-smoothing provides parameter changes with no zippering artifacts. With knob quantize, a clock ratio is selected and parameter changes are updated at specified intervals only. The result is sample-and-hold parameter movements, evocative of step sequencer sounds.
Total Integration
Total Integration is our proprietary technology, which seamlessly links any Virus TI model and a computer to create a unified system consisting of a powerful hardware synth and a virtual instrument plug-in, which not only controls the Virus TI but also receives audio from it, in order to allow post-processing right inside your computer. This way you get the best of both worlds: Your Virus TI will calculate all the voices and effects and therefore makes the CPU of your computer available for other tasks. Since it is driven by the Virus Control plug-in, the timing (unlike normal MIDI and USB-MIDI timing) will be sample-accurate, and all sound data will be saved within the song or project. Virus Control also offers sophisticated editing capabilities, along with an easy-to-use librarian page to keep track of all your Virus TI patches. The Virus TI?s analogue input and outputs can double as an audio interface, the MIDI sockets can double as a MIDI interface. Virus Control is an VST/AU/RTAS compatible plug-in. Total Integration is certified for the following hosts: Apple Logic 8, Steinberg Cubase 4, Ableton Live 7, Digidesign Pro Tools 8, Cakewalk Sonar 7, ImageLine FL Studio 8.
