Re: clipping

2005-08-26 by dbeat

i gotta say i was pretty displeased when i found the same with my 
evolver 2.0 I got about a month ago, i basicly went through and 
modified the patches and turned things that were clipping down a 
bit ,thought it was pretty strange they would ship it like that 
though. I must say though that since getting the 3.0 upgrade and 
loading the new patches that came with that, they all sound much 
better and dont have that problem.
