For sale: Access Virus TI Desktop digital synthesizer in excellent condition. This is among the cleanest TI desktops you'll find available for sale in 2026. As usual, we have given it a full inspection and upgraded a few things along the way.
Ships with aftermarket power supply and your choice of a new high-quality, heavily shielded 1M (3.28 ft, photographed) or 1.5M (4.92 ft) USB cable optimized for audio streaming over USB. We recommend using the shortest cable possible for your setup if you intend to use the Total Integration plugin. Happy to swap in a standard 6-ft USB cable if you do not intend to use the TI plugin.
Details below:
All 43 tact switches have been replaced with high-quality, brand-name tact switches rated for 3 million clicks. They are soft-touch and very close in feel and sound to the original tact switches. See photos 19-21.
All original pots are in perfect working order and function as intended. The TIs use a pot support plate that helps prevent wobble and contributes to long service life when treated properly.
The LCD display is nice and bright, with both backlights functioning as intended.
The LCD bezel has been polished and looks nearly new.
The wood sides are in great shape and are nearly blemish-free.
Ships with a high-quality aftermarket power supply.
The battery has been replaced with an Energizer CR2032 lithium cell. You should not need to replace the battery for ~10 years.
Updated to the latest OS (5.1.7).
We have cleaned the unit thoroughly inside and out. Even the knobs have been cleaned and look nearly new. No white or greasy buildup like you commonly see on Viruses from this era.
The overall look of this instrument is very clean, but it is not perfect. There are 2 microcracks in the LCD bezel from being overtightened by the previous owner and a very faint line through the middle of the bezel (completely disappears once the display is on), which is a known issue with these (see photo 24). The cracks will not deteriorate further so long as the screws are not overtightened again. Just snug is fine. There are a few blemishes in the finish, including a minor scratch in the upper right corner of the faceplate and a white speck on the finish above the LCD (see photos 25-26). There are some imperfections on the bottom plate consistent with normal wear and tear (see photo 23). Please examine all photos carefully, as we have done our best to document the condition. Note, close-ups are provided for full disclosure. The wider photos provide a more representative view of how the synth looks in person.
With all the restoration and maintenance work done, this TI desktop is well prepared for its next life.
Sale includes the synth, high-quality power supply, USB cable of your choice, and free shipping to the continental US.
