It still doesn't seem real to me, my instrument seems to have been reborn

This has reopened the TI2 on my Mac, great work Aura! Highly recommended.

Using a TI Virus (I´m using a Virus KB and a Virus TI2) with a Mac-system the editor is a real gem. Currently I've mostly used the librarian functionality. Creating sounds with the editor seems to be very good supported but up to now I´m still using the "hardware" method. A little drawback is the communication with my MIDI-interface. When connecting the MIDI-interface to a powered USB-hub then the editor doesn't detect the interface. Connecting the interface directly with a Mac USB-port (iMac 2012 model) then everything works fine. But nevertheless, the editor is a very helpful and well designed tool and I highly recommend the editor to all Access Virus users.

Just came out of an ugly experience with a Blofeld editor librarian of another software house, that is stuck to a version older than two years and doesn't open on MacOs Ventura as it didn't open in Monterey's as well, and no AU plugin for it, only VST !. So it's easy to see how happy I am to have found a piece of software that finally works as it suppose to, just this mere fact is refreshing I would say. It is efficient, logically well laid out and has a plugin in AU format so I can use it within Logic. Life is good

I'm usually not compelled to leave in depth reviews but in this case the Virus HC deserves it. It's fantastic: a vast, vast improvement over the "Virus Control" plugin that comes bundled the Virus from the manufacturer. VirusHC transforms my VirusTI2 into a live performance instrument, where I can adjust ANY patch sound parameter in real time for emotional effect. For example....want to control all parameters of the Virus TI2 Arp with a midi pot? Want to control Reverb send with a midi slider? The Virus itself can't midi map any of those parameters, but VirusHC handles it without issue FOR EVER SINGLE MULTIPART. Whereas the built-in Virus midi map is somewhat comprehensive...it just can't hold a candle to VirusHC which allows midi mapping of virtually ANY patch parameter on every multipart. VirusHC's ability to allow the Virus to function as a real-time live performance instrument *really* allows the Virus to shine. All the richness and complexity that we enjoy in sound design by manipulating Virus parameters can now be experienced by others in real time as we play. From my point of view, the only thing lacking in the VirusHC is the ability to MIDI map a button that reloads the current patch in a specific multipart. Failing to include that feature somewhat limits the ability of the VirusHC to fully transform the Virus into a live performance instrument where you could, for example, adjust sound parameters in real time with midi for emotional effect....and then with a touch of a midi pot revert back to the original sound you started with. The ability to "reload the current patch" in a multi was something many users of the Virus requested from the manufacturer in the Access Music forums: but it never happened. I'm hoping that the next release of the VirusHC will include a "Reload Patch" midi-mappable button in each part. Fingers crossed!!! Like the Virus itself, VirusHC is somewhat complicated to setup and wants a 100% perfect setup configuration or it will not function as advertised. Read and follow the manual 110%. For those reviews claiming Version 3 does not work? All I can say it works perfectly in Windows 10 21H2 with my Virus TI2. Read and follow the manual. SETUP: Windows 10 21H2. AMD 5950X Ableton Live 11. FaderFox PC12.

Great soundset

Once you Gert through the Setup instructions, it works exactly as advertised and makes the Virus a joy to use (Much better than Access' antiquated editor; even if I could get it to work on an M1). Well Done! ~~~~ (good Vibrations)

Using it with my Ti2 through studio one 5, works nicely. i didn't even need to create a specific instrument, the soft is seen by Studio One as a standard vst (vst 3 in my case). just need to select proper midi in and out directly into the soft, Great !

Thankyou Im very happy I can use this until Access Releases an update. For now thisbridges the gap.

The Virus Editor is fantastic! I can finally use my TI Snow in Logic Pro X again thanks to this. Audio over USB works much like it did on Logic 9, which for me is perfect. How has it taken a third-party company to do what Virus themselves couldn't or wouldn't do? Thankful for Mystery Islands! <3

Most excellent! I’ve welcomed the Access Virus back to my synth arsenal thanks to Mystery Island Music’s editor. After switching from PC to MAC, this was the only thing I couldn’t get up and running. It took some fiddling, as I’m new to MACland, but bottom line: works as promised. YAY!!!!

Sorry but I returned the unit to the retailer as the synth didn't meet my expectations. I did try the VST as standalone was unavailable, and was able to do much of what I expected it to do. I've de-installed it from my PC now and would love a refund if possible, as now I can never use it.

cool

to set up and make it work is not that easy. After once I have succeeded saved the project template when I have started new project again it was not working. On Mac I could not make it work with USB. Only on MIDI

Everything is great, but unfortunately there is a serious delay on M1PRO. Because of this, you have to save sounds in WAV on separate notes and then arrange them manually, which is not very convenient. But thank you for having at least some opportunity at all.

God bless you !!

It does what the tin says. I'm running all three USB audio outs of my Polar.

The editor is great, but importing sysex or qxr files doesn't work on my configuration. Automations are also really heavy on cpu.
