hey there...

i just got my evolver a few days ago and found this list today, so i
figured i'd say hi. so hi. heh.

i wish i would've thought to look for this list earlier before asking a
silly question on analogue heaven about why my evolver seemed to be
pitched so high... i failed to notice the master transpose parameter
(thanks miles!), which the previous owner had set at +36. this synth is
challenging to me in a way no synth has ever been... i strangely find
myself pining for menus of all things! but i love how it sounds, and after
a few more hours of twiddling with it, i expect i'll be flying around it
as if i were born with one in my hands.

luckily, i have a pc1600x, and after installing those LOVELY patches that
someone made (THANK YOU!!!!) i'm beginning to pick up a little speed.
(except those patches overwrote all my other ones... ah well.)

something i would like to do with the evolver is process drums... my
limited experiments have revealed that the evo's inputs are very sensitive
and clip easily, so with dynamic drums coming in, it makes things
difficult. distorting those inputs sounds okay though... and, honestly,
i'm just going to destroy the drums anyway so i guess it doesn't matter,
heh. but if anyone has any tips about processing drums with the evo, i'd
love to hear them.

thanks... (and hello to those on the 909 list as well!)

bleep.
out.
