RE: [Evolver] Sound differences in JP's patches comparison

2002-12-20 by Don Gothard (dg)

I just got a replacement board today as well (yee-hah!) as I also
suffered from the static noise thing from an early batch. My A/B
comparison shows that the replacement board sounds better to my ears
(not very scientific though). Also the static noise is not there anymore
which could cloud my tests :)
