I am staying with a friend of mine for a few months, while I continue to search for a place to live in Detroit. He has a Virus TI. As soon as I got here, he hooked it up to my Akai MPK61 which has a preset for the Virus. This thing is a blast to work with. Hopefully I'll be able to post some demos soon. I really just need to sit down with it and discover for a few hours.
While I was at Electric Forest, I saw Future Rock and noticed that he was rocking something very similar.
Which is the Virus TI with an integrated keyboard. Costs about $1000 more, whereas the Akai was $300. If I were a touring musician, I would probably go the integrated route.
I'll let you all know if I make any sense of this equipment.
