I use the editor with Virus TI Polar on a Mac Mini M1. It still has some bugs and sometimes crashes Ableton. Still, I can abide that because it does what it does so well. I have got streaming via USB to work as well, following the instructions on this site. However, that does not work flawlessly, longer midi notes seem to result in dropouts. I’m not a great fan of the graphics with rack screws et c, I prefer apps to look like apps (like Ableton does). Excellent customer support via the Discord server. All in all it’s a great asset to the Virus, especially on a Mac. If you are a Mac user and buy a Virus TI, the editor is money well invested. But I do hope some of the bugs will be sorted in coming versions.
Access Virus Editor and Librarian
Crashes so often its pretty much unusable... Zero support from author - he never answers emails or Discord posts.
Clavia Nord 2 Editor and Librarian (1 / 2 / 2X)
I have a Virus TI (mkI) in tandem with both Logic X and Pro Tools on an M2 based Mac, this plugin has really breathed life back into my TI. Especially since I was able to restore the audio over USB integration. Main takeaways for me: a plugin that can control every aspect of the virus via both DAWs mentioned, a librarian, and instructions that restored the USB audio from the virus (6 mono or 3 stereo, have not played w/ USB input to the virus, yet). Read the manual and notes carefully and take your time before installation. The plugin is a bit heavy on resources but it brings your aging friend back to the table.

It does work decently, it does what it says it does however it is not the smoothest experience. I suppose that comes down to the actual hardware of the Blofeld. If you want to properly organize your patches it is pretty much a necessity.
Waldorf Blofeld Editor and Librarian
This is by far the most confusing and unintuitive app I've ever used. Something as simple as saving a patch to the HW requires me to pull out the manual every time. The UI just doesn't make sense - and it's extremely frustrating to use (even more so than the Soundtower editors). 2 stars because it does work most of the time, I'm glad it exists (because it's all we have) and the developer is responsive and actively trying to improve it. To the developer - thanks for all you do, but please improve the UI.
Access Virus Editor and Librarian
Nice work. I have been looking for something like this for many years. Hoping for Apple Silicon support in the next version.
Waldorf Pulse Editor and Librarian
Hello The app is good, however you could bring the GUI closer to the original virus ti 2. The less and vst pages even if the colors are different and the writing fonts if the look is practically the same, the visualization of waveforms, clocks etc would make the user feel more familiar. With these evolutions of the app, user feedback will be a blast and you will have much more openness on the part of buyers and thus greatly increase the volume of business. Thank you Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
Access Virus Editor and Librarian
I"m realy impressed by the work around this control plugin for blofeld. It opens the full potential of the synth. Some sysex message can cause "latency" or litle "freeze" of the blugin (not the sound) and it's normal. But every CC controls of the synth engine are realy responsives even with multis. I'm really happy to use it and have the possibilty to create layers or multi part in one instance of the blugin. Great work.
Waldorf Blofeld Editor and Librarian
with the editor not only give me the ability to load sounds onto the Access, but also to utilize the TI Sound Archive. It runs smoothly and the control from the Virus to the editor is a comprehensive feature.

this is great product if it is constantly working, but it doesn't. The customer service is ok specially with the discord channel. but there are a lot of problems with this software including, saving patches and banks and I have a lot of syncing issues specially using the Arp on the synth.
