Re: ATTN: "Evolutionaries" Soundset Authors

2003-10-21 by afro_88

This is probably a stupid question, but where can I download this "Evolutio=
nary 
soundset"? Some of the sounds in the new bank 4 are quite nice (I'm hoping =
the 
evolutionary soundset contains more along this vein) I don't know who progr=
ammed 
them, but no's 2, 8, 11, 16, etc are really good! (heh, 16 is a pretty nice=
 version of 
that Eurhythmic's tune "sweet dreams").

Also, I know this is sacrelige considering what this synth can do, but has =
anyone had 
much luck getting nice distorted 303 sounds out of the evolver? I've found =
that the 
distortion in the evolver tends to make it sound too guitar-y and messy, an=
d takes 
the top end out a little too much... this is probably due to the fact that =
it's designed 
for guitar input tho. The evolver is my only analogue synth, so I'm pretty =
much using 
it for any analogue-y sounds.. it'd be nice if I could get some decent 303 =
action out 
of it as well!

Thanks
Max
