Dave Smith Instruments SYNTHESIZERS

And you can even use the oscillators as an effect on the input :)
1 thing I did recently via the Mod source, was have the input
amplitude effecting the osc tune.
(Mod 1 source = Ext audio Env follower aka EiE, M1 dest = Osc All Freq aka OAF)
run some drums through it and the louder the drum hit (kick) the
lower/higher (whichever you choose, try them both) the osc freq.
pair that with envelope 3 being triggered by input amplitude as well
(envelope followinging) and sweeping the pitch/filter/whatever...
kinda squeaky- it sounded like a chew-toy built into a drum set =D

...or instead of drums, try a mic!

evolver is weird, so many ways to use it!
