Re: [Evolver] Feature Request

2003-01-09 by Ski <ex5tech@excite.com>

That IS cool.  And it *would* be like a little groove box.  BUT... it 
would FORCE you to "play" the Evolver, rather than pre-programming 
everything.  I may be in a minority, but I think that's a GOOD thing 
for live performance.
