Yes, you can.
It's not exactly simultaneous because the parameter changes are send 
one after another but if you move two or more sliders (i tested it 
with a Kenton control freak) it works perfect.

A little comment about control surfaces with the Evolver:
If you want to make things more easy you'll have to find a controll 
surface wich has enough knobs and sliders (and can do sysex!)to cover 
all the parameters you want to change.
I was testing with the Kenton and found that you still have to switch 
a lot of times (16 sliders per program) to find the right parameter.
Compared to that the Evolvers own knobs are much easier to navigate.
(also because the Evolver knobs changes the display to it's parameter 
so you see what you're doing)


Grtz. Ronald.
