Re: freeware VSTi MED editor

Hi James!

It's working!
That LObjects we're missing, got it running right after putting them in.
Thats some really cool stuff you made! Respect and lots of thanks!

So much for the kudos, here's my bit of constructive criticism:

1. The interface is quite complicated, takes some time to come by
My idea: would it be possible to arrange the controls in the same
manner as they are on the Evolvers Matrix ?
It would work perfectly for me, as I'm used to handle the matrix
control and "know" where most of the parameters sit. 

2. As the MAX/Msp App occupies the MIDI-Interface, I can't use it in
Live, which is kindof pointless when working with the Evolver, but
that's maybe just my one-channel MIDI interface. Come to think of it,
I could use some virtual MIDI ports. I'll try that soon.

Anyway, really really a great piece of free(!) software you did!
