Re: [DSI Synths] Re: Controlling a Poly Evolver Rack with a Midi Keyboard

Depends on what you mean with "control". If you mean playing an varying 
sounds, any keyboard with modwheel, aftertouch and eventually two assignable 
faders or knobs is sufficient.
Then you can program your sounds in a way that whenever you turn the 
modwheel, aftertouch or the assignable controller, something interesting 
happens.
As soon as it comes to sound programming, all those generic controllers are 
not really fun.
The Evolvers have around 200 sound parameters. If you want to have full 
acces you'd either need a software editor or a specialized controller like 
Evolver or PEK.

If anyone else had any experience with controlling a Poly Evolver Rack
with a Midi keyboard (particularly an MPK-49) it'd be *great* to hear
about it.

Thank you.
