Re: [Evolver] Poly Evolver VS Waldorf Microwave XT

2004-05-24 by simon leclerc

I own the XT and Evolver.

They don't sound the same (but they can)
and compliment each other very well.
Can't see the day i won't use these
two in my small studio.

I want a Poly but
really don't have the $.
It'll have to wait a year or two :(

I have no need for other synths since
these two have met.

Good luck with your choices,

Simon
