Dave Smith Instruments SYNTHESIZERS

I started on a Roland Juno-60. This was great because it only had 1 
oscillator (not including the sub), 2 filters and 1 envelope (if I 
remember rightly). The simplicity of it meant it was really easy to 
hear what each thing did to the sound. But it still took a while to 
grasp what was fully going on. I'd recommend reading something on the 
basics of synthesis (subtractive mainly). You'll find this sort of 
information in a lot of synth manuals or online. The evolver is 
definitely not a "my first synth" and would send anyone new to it 
running. Took me a few days to get my head around it!
Nice pads aren't the easiest things to program either.
