Re: [Evolver] Evolver = bad for Live use ?

2003-01-28 by simon leclerc

You know what, i did not try to use the ES-1 as master
when pattern are chained. Since the pattern changes
happen at the end of a program when they're chained,
it should change Evo's patterns on the beat. I will try
this and let you know.  This i could live with for the time
being ;)

Well a brute force workaround is to use a sequencer that sends program
change patches to the evolver at the exact start of a new bar (and have
evolver set to LockSeq.

I also requested this feature to Dave a few weeks ago.
I thought someone might have a workaround, i guess not.
I just don't see the point of having a sequencer
with 372 possible patterns if you can't jump from one
pattern to another, spacially when the designer is Mr Dave Smith
himself.  And now my last hope for a workaround (korg Es-1 as master)
has failed. You know i can live with the fact that it can't control
other Midi devices, but i can't live with this limitation.
This is bad man.

This is the subject of one of my requests to Dave in a new O.S. mainly a
pattern select mode that incorporates a rule that the switch will happen
upon the end of the currenty playing sequence and then move and continue
without losing a beat, true groovebox style. Let's hope it happens. No idea
though.
