Dave Smith Instruments SYNTHESIZERS

Thanks for the kind words, Julian.

Regarding that "license" wording in the pdf... um, I have to admit 
that I did a God-awful job of that.  I was trying to accomplish a 
couple of things (like making it clear that Dave had the right to use 
the sounds in the presets), and I just totally botched the language.  
Ravi brought me to my senses.  I'm chalking it up to lack of sleep, 
as I started the final session on "Evolutionaries" early Saturday 
morning, and didn't finish posting it until about 4 or 5 am Sunday 
morning.

Anyway... we're redrafting that awful "license", and will repost the 
whole thing soon.  I really didn't mean to restrict commercial use of 
the patches, and I think I'm fair in saying that no one else did, 
either.  Just my goof.  The *original* sequences are a slightly 
touchier matter, as is anything that actually makes it into the 
Evolver presets.

Hang on, and we'll get an updated - and hopefully much more 
sensible! - doc out soon.

Thanks a lot.
