Dave Smith Instruments SYNTHESIZERS

Yup... I ummmm understand all of this and dreamt that I read it in 
the manual... but the first many patches in bank #1 all seem to use 
the same sequence even though Sequence Lock is off. I have not had a 
chance to explore further, but it seems that maybe the sequences 
were overwritten by someone in this Evolver's previous life....

Of course this is all just hypothetical.... I'm waiting for a 
certain Dutch someone to see these posts and react! :)
