AURA Plugins Reviews

I'm extremely happy right now. Once again I have access to all my Virus parameters via my DAW. I'm like a kid at a candy store right now. Access is by far the greatest disappointment of all time by cancelling support for the Virus software. That was the whole damn selling point. I would really like to know what the heck Access is doing? On the contrary, Mystery Islands Music may have been the greatest discovery of all time. lol. Jani in particular was pleasant 100% of the time. He helped me to solve a couple of issues, one of which was user error. üòñ Like Jani mentions, triple check that your ins and outs. Yeah, we all know how they go, but it can still be overlooked. Especially when you're over confident. üò¨ He was quick to respond and showed a lot of patience. I ended up getting a ESI MIDIMATE eX to make this work. I've just started using it today 2-20-22 and so far everything is working. I will probably be going to bed really late tonight. üò≥ I will try and update after I use it awhile. Danny Figueroa

Dodgy progrqamming and no fricking manual!

Very nice GUI with a few bugs but Jani is really good about responding to support emails or messages. He even fixed a couple of things that I pointed out with an update within a day.

Works great but a few bugs on my end like causing ableton to crash randomly. Quite rare but it's happening. Very handy tool none the less!

All run well with cubae to when you register and close it...never you can re-open your project !!! How to say about support....4 tickets...no answers !!! Since one month... So ...Bellshill on all the line... Ans about supernova editor ? Bellshill too...never run.. And believe me,I'm not a novice.. Never buy them...

This editor is fantastic overall, very easy on the eyes and is very well laid out. Total recall is great too. However, I am giving it 4 stars based on the experience I had trying to figuring out how to save presets. I spent a great deal of time in the plugin and the manual trying to wrap my head around saving a preset that I had created, only to try to save them in several ways that I thought would work...then find out that I actually didn't save them and the patch reverted to INIT. It actually motivated me to get the TI function of my virus working properly and I just use that now. Its unfortunate because I really like the UI for this plugin and the fact that is is scalable. (The Virus TI plugin is not...very small on a 4k TV monitor) It may be that I did not spend enough time in the manual really trying to understand the preset librarian, but ultimately the other factor for me was unstable midi timing via DIN MIDI. As far as I know, that is a problem with the Virus OS and NOT the Virus HE plugin to be clear. Rolling back your Virus TI2 to OS version 3.4.4 apparently fixes the MIDI timing (jitter) issues.(or using a RME pcie card) Ultimately I decided against rolling back my Virus OS and decided to use the Virus Control plugin on a separate lower res dedicated monitor. I think its important to recognize that this plugin is a great piece of work and I will try again to figure it out in the future, but the Librarian and its functions could be simpler in my opinion.

Keeping my Virus alive. It's brilliant

Great editor, which works as expected. Controlling the Virus with this editor feels like controlling a new synth. The library works like SoundDiver in the good old days. Finally I can load all my old presets again. A very small bug: in macOS renamed ('access VIRUS Indigo') MIDI interfaces won't be reloaded in AU plugin when opening a LogicX project, while with standard interface name ('USB Midi Cable') it works fine. Probably fixed with one of the next updates...

I am very happy with this plugin! The original Virus plugin is not very stable on my Mac anymore, but your plugin is perfectly stable with total recall and automation in Ableton. It took a little time to adjust to the new interface, but the interface is perfectly great. I do appreciate the familiar browser with 2 windows. I should note that audio is now coming through the line outputs, no longer USB, which is no problem for me but still worth mentioning. Overall I would recommend this to anyone with a Virus who is having trouble with the standard TI plugin. A++++
