Dave Smith Instruments SYNTHESIZERS

I'm reading with great anticipation the thread about the guy with the 
Edirol editor.  Good luck, and let us know how it turns out!

I just wanted to throw my .02 cents in here, and say that one thing 
we need to keep in mind using Sysex instead of MIDI CC is the amount 
of MIDI traffic you're going to generate when tweaking a knob.  MIDI 
CC only takes 3 bytes to send a new value, so every time you tweak a 
knob a small amount, only 3 bytes per value are sent.  However, with 
Sysex you're sending 9 bytes "per tweak".  It will be interesting to 
see if you can "play" the Edirol in realtime without causing the 
Evolver to "choke" on the extra MIDI data.  That is... if you're 
playing with the keyboard with one hand, and slowly (or quickly) 
changing Filter cutoff using Sysex with the other hand... can the 
Evolver keep up?

Hopefully where this will all lead is... Dave will feel encouraged to 
add the extra MIDI CC controls you all asked for earlier!  Good luck, 
guys!
