SOS Evolver review

2003-01-17 by Ravi Ivan Sharma

Nice one Paul.

Good review, no surprises from anything that hasn't been discussed on this
list, but now its' official in respectable review form: The Evolver Kicks
Ass.

Paul even departed from longstanding SOS policy and gave the Evoler a
Platinum Key Buy Award!

JUST KIDDING! But he did say:

"[Evolver] represents one of the happiest marriages of analogue and digital
technology I've encountered."

"What really counts is the Evolver's sound and sound-mangling potential, and
there is an almost indecent range of options to handle both."

"When listening to some of the factory sequences playing four-part harmonies
and the like, I did occasional double-takes, and needed to remind myself
this was 'only' a monophonic instrument."

"[T]hose twin audio inputs, delay lines, and the many different ways to
transform a harmless signal into a heart-rending wail of terror make this
one mean mother of an audio processor."
