Access Virus TI Snow

The most portable Virus ever.




The Access Virus TI Snow is probably the only
virus you'd want near your computer. This tiny synth engine gives your
DAW a powerful, portable sonic companion, able to access over a thousand
sounds with a few button presses. The Virus TI Snow is 100% compatible
with all the TI patches, and can play back a maximum of 50 voices.

Oscillators
The
TI Snow has 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). It has wavetable
oscillators with 100 multi-index wavetables, which feature variable
resolution and optional pulse-width modulation. The graintable
oscillators apply granular synthesis techniques for independent control
of pitch and formants to warp a waveform beyond recognition. The formant
oscillators sound like running a signal through a massive, modulatable
filterbank with hundreds of resonant bands being morphed by the
wavetable index.

Filters
There are 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. You can get an optional
self-resonating Moog cascade filter with circuit overloads simulation
and 1-4 poles.

Modulation
The TI Snow has
two-dimensional modulation matrix with six slots (1 source and 3
modulation targets each). Every feasible parameter can be modulated in
real time. There are 3 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, analog boost, ring modulator, 3-band EQ, and 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 featuring 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.
In addition, there are 64 preset patterns as a starting point.

Polyphony
Between
10 to 50 voices are capable depending on the complexity of the patch.
This estimate is based on single mode performance. Results may vary in
multi mode.

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.

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
Access' proprietary technology. It 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. This 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.
