Re: [Evolver] Tonal characteristics of Poly Evolver

2005-03-27 by Richard Scott

" I am looking for the ultimate pad/atmosphere machine"

not wishing to diss the evolver family in ANY way, they do tight, punchy, 
very defined and cutting sounds very very well, but for soft, smooth 
undulating pads with extremely complex filtering possibilties I think the 
Alesis Andromeda is probably far closer to what you are looking for... 16 
voices allow for very complex layering as well
