Dave Smith Instruments SYNTHESIZERS

I forgot to mention the sluggishness. I was all happy with my 1.6Ghz G5 (my first 
computer upgrade in 10 years). The OS X editor is sluggish on the G5! So for now, I can't 
recommend this software either.

Thankfully the Evolver is easy to edit on its own, but I really wanted a way to store patches 
with names.
