RE: [Evolver] how do i upload a sound bank to the MEK?

2008-05-02 by Iain Bryden

Hi,
 
I use my computer sequencer (Cakewalk Sonar) to read the data dump banks
from the Evolver to back everything up. If you've worked on any programs
that you want to save, do this first. 
 
I've used MidiOx (www.midiox.com) to send banks to my Evolvers. If I
recall correctly: open MidiOx, specify your MIDI ports, load up the
file, run it. Doing it this way will overwrite entire banks and you
can't specify which banks to overwrite because that is set in the sysex
file.
 
There are also a couple of editors/patch librarians that I'm aware of -
SoundTower (www.soundtower.com/evolver/) and Vyzor (www.psicraft.com).
I've only used SoundTower to a limited degree, but it seems to be fine
for individual patch uploading/downloading/rearrangement. At some point
I intend to use SoundTower to rearrange my Evolver programs into
categories.

Hi everyone!
 
i just got my MEK & Prophet 08 desktop two days ago.
 
i heard that the "mostly analog" bank for the evolver is really good. i
want to upload it to my MEK, but it doesn't say how on the manual (or am
i missing something?). how do i do that?
 
i understand you can upload it as a midi file (though i have no clue
how), or in the form of SysEx (which i have no idea what it is or what
it means).
 
glad for some help and advice
 
thanks!
