Dave Smith Instruments SYNTHESIZERS

Hmm. I've been using one OR the other. I have an MEK and EVO and Virus
TI Desktop. I must hear how using an Evolver AND a TI sound together.

with the evolver's sequencers and the Alesis spares me having to always
add bass to the evo and SBS (It also doubles as a fake bass).

I do the opposite: pair an Access Virus Indigo with a DEK. One of them
has a reputation for being "too dark" and the other has a reputation for
being "too harsh". Played together, it sounds like you got your peanut
butter in my chocolate.

If I could do it all over again, I probably would have gone MEK and TI
desktop. But I was four or five years too early and a couple of thousand
dollars short.
