Re: [Evolver] By request: Evolver + MonoMachine + Machinedrum demo

2003-12-15 by Damon Menne

The Quasimidi Polymorph... It's a relatively short run 
synthesizer/sequencer made by Quasimidi right before their ultimate 
demise.  Vintage Synth has a page for it... 
http://www.vintagesynth.org/misc/polymorph.shtml

It's architecture is very, very weird... It's the strangest combination 
of bizarre restrictions and complex flexibility.  Most of the 
flexibility stems from the builtin sequencer... which isn't too 
different from the Evolver's, in fact.

As for the Monomachine, I love it.  Very fast, easy to use, sounds 
great, the sequencer works well for certain aspects of my music.  They 
just announced a tabletop this morning, a Monomachine sans-keyboard for 
~600 bones less.  Cool for those with a ton of keys already.
