Complicated.

And huge if you do it right.

I generally have them playing independant, not truly stacked.  I like to use the DEVO to control bpms on both and let the sequencer and arps mingle and meet.

I also tend to use the evolver for leads.  It's not implcitly better at it, it's just kind of a mental block thing of mine.  I'll lay down a looped bit of evolver with the VCA wide open using a looping pedal, layer some Virus over it then back to the evolver for some weeedly-weeedly stuff.

It's remarkably satisfying
