Yeah Im not really chasing.
I think Id rather go with the TI, all the wavetable stuff, multi timbrality, etc. Maybe one day. But probably not, I had a studio day today. Fucking love my set up and see no reason to change anything.

The B is also multitimbral, up to 16 individual patches, or multi-single mode with up to 16 patches at the same time on the same MIDI channel. 
The Wavetable stuff is pretty great though. Basically if you find a B for a silly price (around Ā£300-Ā£350) Iād recommend snapping it up.
Ha! Thats never going to happen. I live in Australia, average price of a used Access Virus B is about 1000 AUD = 500GBP.
Faraway desert country means Sodall population means sodall gear means high prices.

I wish they would release an updated Virus TI Snow, with an updated UI (like the micromonsta 2), smaller form factor and USB audio/midi without hacks. This is such a perfect small synth: all the sounds from the desktop version, just half the DSP (which is already plenty!) and 4 parts multitimbral. Can be USB-powered easily, this is really a gem.
Yip the atomiser is naffā¦i donāt like stutter effects thoughā¦
There are many things in the effects section on the TI i wish were in my Elektron boxes, a delay for the chorus so you can make it pitch drag like tape, a vibrato, tape delay with different tempo divisions per left and right side, amp sim, distortion flavours, vowel filter, ring mod, pitch modā¦
Oh and the mod matrix, that would be sweetā¦
Wow thatās a great deal! I got an Indigo (B) for around Ā£200 a few years back, as it was in fairly bad shape (wobbly knobs and weird aftermarket screen with crap viewing angle). TBH Iād just use the DSP56300 plugin now probably, but legendary devices.

In the latest episode of SonicTalk Yoad Nevo named the Virus B as an excellent effects box. 
The wording of the question āis it still relevant?ā can be applied to absolutely everything and not only to synthesizers. I had 5 Virus TI1 and TI2. They came and went, after I tried a bunch of VA synths I bought the 5th TI1 destop and left it forever. There are moments in life that it stands idle (but so do other synths), and there are times when I can write a complete track, by using for all sounds only the Virus TI including the drums. I like the Virus TI and mine works very stably and never loses synchronization.
