keyboard to play into Sonar, and I record the results). Now if I
wanna cut that down to a nice round 2 measure clip, I can slip edit
the clip to 2 measures. When doing this type of editing, the Evolver
shifts pitch. If I start/stop my material a couple of times, the
Evolver will sort itself out. The only rhyme or reason to this
problem is resizing midi clips. Unplugging and then replugging the
unit will also get it sorted out. I have rifled through the Midi Rec
function in the Evolver and nothing seems to work there, either.
The strange thing is that this DOESN'T happen with my other synths.
I use a Midi thru box with 4 outputs so there isn't a daisychaining
problem here.
Also, is there a way to PREVENT the sequencer from playing? Like I
said, I am using this as a sound source, and I sequence it
externally. When I hit play in Sonar, the Evolver Sequencer will
turn on. Is there any way to lock it off?
THanks for the help folks.
