RE: [Evolver] Multiple Knob Twiddling

Right-o.  I got that much about sysex.  My real question is how to
effectively edit it after recording, like a manual filter sweep, and/or
program devices or DAW's to send it.

The best reference for SysEx would be the back manual for the synth 
you are working with. A System Exclusive message is basically a 
datafile that is exclusively meant to work with one brand or model 
of synth. You'll probably need to know how to read and convert 
between binary, hex and decimal.

The most common usage of SysEx is to save and load patches or banks. 
In Sonar I can open up a SysEx window and then initiate a SysEx 
patch dump from the Evolver and then save the patch so that I can 
reload it if I happen to modify it while working on another song. 
You don't have to know very much about the format to pull that off.

If you're using a patch editor, then it's communicating with the 
Synths via SysEx messages.
