DSI Evolution?

2010-10-16 by Dustin D

Yeah I have noticed a few things that leave me scratching my head as to why that feature doesn't work. I have both an Evolver and a Tetra and for example the Tetra doesn't listen to Midi Start/Stop Continue commands. What?! It selfishly won't communicate to my other gear the way that midi has for years. Its an amazing tool that is hamstrung by the most simple thing. As it is, it's a tool that doesn't go on tour with me. I use my sequencers for everything, I can't play all these instruments at once. :)

The future of comercial products relies on the manufacturer to support and grow with the needs of the consumers. Evolution is a two way street. Show us that you care after the initial purchase and you have customers for life. I feel that synths are too valuable to be disposable and need to be updatable. Is it possible to open source the programming to the community if DSI doesn't have the resources?
