Dude, it really depends on what you're looking for. The "real virus" has an advantage over the powercore version because it has lots of dedicated buttons, knobs and LEDs so everything is hands on (though you can probably get a nice MIDI controller like one of the Novation SL series and control the powercore virus with dedicated buttons too, but it's not the same imo), on the other hand - the powercore version allows you to run more instances (patches) if you get the higher license, that might be another thing to consider.
As far as I know, the Powercore and the hardware versions (B/C) sounds the same as their DSP is the same one (which is also used in Protools TDM cards, hence the Virus TDM plugin)
The Ti is using newer DSP chip (and there's 2 of them too) - I think the Ti sounds better.
Another important thing to consider is the Total Integration feature which is quite revolutionary and interesting, basically it allows you to run every parameter of the Virus Ti via AU and VST hosts (Logic, Cubase) which makes your patches much easier to understand and manipulate. The killer feature for the Ti (apart of the better sound engine) is the Lock feature of the plugin - you can lock a certain section (arp/filter/fx/osc etc) and browse through other patches while the section you locked stays the same. Think of the possibilities.....
I'd suggest: save money, get the Ti.
  YEEEEES! |

For sure get the TI!
Much more functions, more stable, less cpu eventhough the PoCo is dsp. Better sound and more fun to tweak!
Plus it will keep it value for quite some time, so if you dont like it you still will be able to sell it for quite a resonable price!

Thanks a lot dudes
I think i will go for a TI , I need a easy tweakable machine , with that i'll have a multi instance machine (like PoCo)and the advantage to have a real machine.
I didn't know there's a lock feature in th TI .Nice.Another point up for the TI

Virus is powerful toy, Yeah.
But it's a Toy.
Korg was, Korg is being an Korg Will Be Most Powerful Engine for pro-music.
Virus TI is money for nothing, I better buy some chinese plastic sequencor and have some fun by giving him to some Music Addict Child, than I'll touch this stupid and overpromoted device like Virus TI

LOL,
All that synths (especially Korg electribes) are toys.
maybe you should touch the virus once, then you would probably realize that it is a synth like all the others, just different in handling and sound.
Korg sounds more liquid, virus is more agressive, just a matter of taste.

Of course, I tried Virus TI.
It was like driving fucking great Ferrari after three years of Driving Tank
Virus Ti - Was Toy, Is Toy and Will Stay Toy
I have no doubt about selling this piece of chips to one great young man.

Skazi say "Oh, Andrey, people hate me and don't understand my point of view".
And I say "That because you're using WRONG HARDWARE"
And I always Was Right....

I have an ancient DX27, a Juno and have tried various other hardware synths round friends studios. I own a TI and I love it for 3 simple reasons above all other synths
1) Sound (subjective, of course)
2) Easy to use (no debate here)
3) "TI" (No more sysex) Just close cubase project, everything saved, just like a VST. |

Ok, more simple:
You got no Brain - You buy Virus Access
You feel Talent inside of You - You buy Korg Oasys
And If want Korg Oasys, you goes to Muzzik college of Tel-Aviv and tell them you want to be pro-sound man. Pay your money for course of Tim Shuldt's Level and got discount in Marom-Music Shop.
Now, when you work at the studio for 1000$ per day for beginning, you got enough money to buy the hardware.
You goes to Marom-Center and tell them "Shalom, eifo ha-Itzik?"
You'll feel the Power of Most Respectful Music Shop in HolyLand, you'll get best service, best and cheapest hardware, best warranty and even "Atifat Matana" for free
After that You can talk about Sysex, Sound and Using the Hardware.
But now you're only Young Man on Virus, and we can nothing to do....

you are comparing two different instruments with very different uses...
it's like the guy wants a guitar and you are telling him to go buy a bass because guitars are for kids
but i'm wondering if you're for real |

Simon Posford start on bass and said "It sucks" , got an Korg Prochecy and became a Genius
Hoffman start his L.S.D Project and said "It sucks" got Bycicle and became Genius
God started this World, said "It'sucks" and put X on the World Map
X is Israel..... Korg is the key to success, and Virus is the key to access the World of Suckers
Prove me I am Wrong
Thank You!

I NEVER had money and never had a father with money. All my life is my destiny on my own.
And I trust Marom only, Ramat-Gan only and Israel only. All the rest of World is Wrong
Prove Me I Am Wrong
