The Evolver does basically have a bandpass filter since the analog lpf 
and the digital hpf are run in series.  By modulating the cutoff of both 
filters together (with say the sequencer) you can control cutoff 
frequency and the bandwidth of the resulting bandpass filter.

Also the Evolver is arguably "multitimbral."  You can't play more than 
one patch at a time but within a single Evolver patch you can get some 
pretty complex stuff happening like a synth lead on top of a drum 
machine rhythm or a lead line and a bass line that loop at different 
points.  So in that sense I think it provides a little bit of multitimbrality.
