Unlocking the Magic Of Psytrance: Your First Step Into the VirusTI

This video is meant as an introduction to using the Access VirusTI, showing how to make a couple different types of psytrance sounds. This video is intended to follow the other videos I have posted, showing similar techniques and using some of the tricks I described in those other videos.
So while this video doesn't expect any foreknowledge of the Virus TI, it does reference some of my other videos, so if you haven't already please check those out first, especially the Note Length & Density trick in Cubase video.
This video is a bit longer so I hope you will bear with me through the whole thing, and in future videos I will further develop the ideas and techniques I touch on in this video. So please post comments and ask questions about anything.

Glad you enjoy it!

[@rhinoskin7550]

..If you chain the OSC together on the LFO, it can add more randomization also.. Just playing around and watching the video. Thank you!!

[@remusvisan]

I love your tutorials, you talk so well! thank you!

[@dave.kabayun]

Thank you so much!

[@harrywilcock2030]

Awesome Tutorial thanks Kabayun, just what I need right now. keen to check your other videos now. Hopefully there's more Psy TI2 stuff🤘

[@dave.kabayun]

I'll try! unfortunately access hasn't updated the firmware to work with the new mac OS so I have to use the vst from aura plugins but if I can find a stable way to do it ill make more

Super cool man!!! I d like to watch some more videos with the legendary Virus TI, maybe some atmos synth or stuff like that :)

Hi! Great video! Thank you so much! 💞 Do you have any videos where you use Serum, Sylenth or ANA 2 as well?

Not yet but I can make some 😊

Hey there! Which version of iOS are u on?

[@torram28]

I see people talk about compatibility issues for newer Macs with this software, but does it work with a windows 10 pc? sorry if noob question, I'm about to buy my first virus:)

[@julian-multiman]

Yes it does works perfectly fine with Windows.

[@ehlerszorgman1298]

Hi there What is the OS your running for the virus ? I know Mac has compatibility issues and someone uses audio grinder to run it over server with M1 Mac mini

[@dave.kabayun]

this video was made on my old machine so the Virus still worked normally. On my new M1 machine I have been using Mystery Island, which works pretty well though its not perfectly synced all the time. Still, its better than having the TI just collect dust on my shelf www.mysteryislands-music.com/topics/virus-editor-update/

Does it really work? I had some cracked sound coming out of my

[@nilsheinen6724]

Did you find a way to use the virus with Catalina or did you just not update osx? Nice tutorials thanks man!

[@dave.kabayun]

This video was made on my old computer where the Virus still worked normally. I have gotten it to work reasonably well with my new machine, using the mystery island software. I can make a video about mystery Island soon

[@alexnieto12345]

Kinda wish so could convince Access to update theyre software, I tryed emailing em lol no response. I’d pay em to update theyre shit

[@dave.kabayun]

@@alexnieto12345 seriously! I dont understand how they can continue to sell new machines but not offer support for them (or keep them working on new machines) its totally insane

[@Yobott]

@@alexnieto12345 yea it's really ridiculous, the model is literally called ''Total Integration'' but then only offers the hardware part on any OSX past 2019..

[@nofood1]

I tend to cut leads around 300, 200hz makes them sound heavy though, it depends for you Kabayun right?

[@dave.kabayun]

Yes, it totally depends on how much content the sound has at those lower frequencies... and if cutting at 250-300 would lose something. If you can go higher without ruining the sound, definitely do it. If you think you need what's happening from 150-300hz one thing you can try is combining the hi pass with a low shelf. For example you could put the hipass at 200, and a shelf starting at 300, so you can pull out some of the 200-300 range but still leave enough coming through to maintain the integrity of the sound... Going further you can try making the shelf dynamic, to get even more control over those frequencies while still allowing enough to come through

[@alexnieto12345]

Does Access VST still not work for updated Mac computers? Trying to find a way around it.

[@dave.kabayun]

Unfortunately not. This video was recorded before I updated to a M1 Mac, however, I have been able to get the virus functioning almost perfectly on my new machine by using the Mystery Island software. A couple people have been asking about this, so I think I will make a video on it.

[@michaelberger1276]

Mojave is the last

[@GuitarsAndSynths]

Would love to see a lesson on how to make this without using the software plugin that is buggy and does not work on new Mac computers. I can get it to sometimes work on Windows or an older Mac but it crashes constantly. So I resort to using the hardware user interface.
