Dave Smith Instruments SYNTHESIZERS

WRT mp3s... Phono, have you not been checking your email from this 
group, or the group web interface, or the EX5Tech Evolver forum?  I 
posted links to four mp3 demos at EX5Tech and in a message to the 
Yahoo group here.  I posted the same links at the Keyboard Mag and 
Harmony Central keyboard forums.  Scroll through the following topic 
and you'll find links to the four demos:

(Note:  If your email client or the Yahoo website has split the text 
of the link above, you will need to copy/paste it into the address 
bar of your browser.)

Hope you enjoy the demos.  The Poly is a fantastic machine.


BTW, Poly #0007 is safely ensconced in the Ski Lodge.  :)


Don, your Poly probably sounds better than your Evolver because #0012 
is a magic number!  ;)  Seriously, I haven't made a careful 
comparison, as I was too busy trying to fill up the Combo bank prior 
to the shipping date.  However, though I didn't do any head to head 
comparisons, I didn't really notice a difference between the sound 
quality of prototypes I had (#0004 and #0003) and my "regular" 
Evolver.  I still have prototype #0003, along with production unit 
#0007, so I'll have to compare the proto and the production Polys to 
my Evolver when I get a moment.  I'd be surprised if there was a real 
difference in audio quality.  I wouldn't be too surprised, though, if 
the Poly has a bit of a different "feel" (when playing mono lines) 
than the Evolver, because each subsequent note on the Poly is being 
played by a different synth voice inside the box.  Also, when making 
head to head comparisons, you have to of course remember to make the 
signal paths (including cables, routing, and mixer settings) as 
identical as possible.
