RE: [DSI Synths] Desktop VS Mek

2009-06-08 by Iain Bryden

I bought an MEK after I bought the EVO (Desktop), and I'm very glad I
did. The MEK is one of my best purchases. The EVO was great but I
couldn't get my head around programming it. After buying the MEK I was
able to understand more about synth programming in a few days than I
have since buying the Juno 6 in 1983, and learning the MEK made the EVO
easier to understand.
 
I'm keeping my EVO. I don't think I could sell it for what it's worth to
me. I find that used EVOs are really cheap. I use the EVO live because
it's easier to carry and fit on my rig, and occasionally I need more
than one Evolver track in my recordings. I use the Keyboard to program
patches then dump them to the Desktop.
 
Regards,
-- Iain
