evovler sound is fat and analoge and you could use a midi-sax with
breath controller for controlling parameters on the evovler.

I own both and I wouldn't quite classify the Blofeld as a toy.

Breath control is a modulation source on the Blofeld. The arpeggiator
is a bit more flexible than the Evolvers note sequencer, but the
Evolver has the edge because of the ability to have four sequences to
control any parameter.

I find the Evolver to be a lot simpler to edit but that viewpoint
might change once I learn where all the parameters are because the LCD
screen on the Blofeld provides a lot more information the the Evolvers
screen ever could.

Both synths have the ability produce sound that can make your jaw
drop. Support wise I would probably give the nod to the Evolver.
You can probably find an evolver a lot quicker than you can find a
Blofeld at this point.
