RE: [Evolver] soundtower's evolver editor, again

2005-06-12 by Gene Schwartz

You can accomplish everything on the physical interface that you can through
the editor. However there are some things (the sequencer especially) that
are made MUCH more efficient by being able to view all parameters at once.

I personally am not going to quibble about whether it's worth 50 bucks or
not compared to other software. I gladly paid it because it adds much ease
of use to my Evolver. And I think that I got rather efficient at the user
interface.

There are a few cool features, but for the most part, you can
accomplish everything just as well if you get efficient at the
physical interface. I got the editor in a deal with the synth from a
guy on ebay. I don't think it's worth the 50 bucks.
